Delphi

Pervasive PSQL provides support for the Delphi community through the Pervasive Direct Access Components (PDAC). A plug-in replacement for the Borland Database Engine, PDAC delivers the reliability and quality of Pervasive PSQL under the covers, combined with high-speed access to the rich database interface provided in Delphi without forcing you to learn an entirely new interface.

Data access can also be obtained via the Btrieve API, ODBC, ADO and ActiveX.

Pervasive PSQL provides support for Delphi versions 5, 6, and 7.
