Hi,

Will I have to recompile applications made with Delphi 3 C/S edition
if I upgrade The BDE from 4.00 to 5.10 ?

I've read somewhere that you'll have to recompile in Delphi 4 to be
sure, could someone explain if that's the case ?

Sincerely ,
Jacob Christensen

No.

It isn't. The BDE is backward compatible, and doesn't require
recompiling.

Hi again,

I seem to have found a problem with the compatibility anyway.... When
the property UniDirectional for at TQuery is set to TRUE my program
isn't working correct.  Has anyone encountered this ?   It works
perfect using BDE 4.00 but fails when using 5.10 ....

Sincerely,

Just a clarification.  Backwards compatible means that the interface hasn't
change such that existing app need to be recompiled.  It does not mean that new
bugs might not have been introduced that might affect older programs (it would
affect newer ones too).  You've found an introduced bug it sounds like.  Have
you submitted this bug through the web site so that it gets into the Borland
reporting chain?

No, but I will do that right away,  Thanks for the clarification.
