There is a commercial add on to Indy called YuOpenSSL, that replaces OpenSSL DLLs with Delphi DCUs.

IBX2 for Lazarus can do that. DevArt IBDAC can't.

Syntactic sugar. It does nothing more than that begin-end, but makes it clear (to me) that "B" is defined only for the purpose of abbreviating that expression.

Do you really need A? As you can have for var i:=1 to 10 do ... why not with var B := dmStoreInventoryData.tblUpdateItemForStore do begin B.AppendRecord([1,'foo','bar',3.1415]); end; and "B" would only be visible inside the "with" block, not outside of it. Currently you have to "fake" it by begin var B := dmStoreInventoryData.tblUpdateItemForStore B.Edit; B.FieldByName('Qty').AsInteger := NewQty; B.Post; end;

Both compile Pascal to javascript using pas2js. This seems to be more like UniGUI, Kitto or even IntraWeb, where your program itself is a webserver.

You mean Simula. Modula had no classes. Btw. Anonymous functions have been a feature of programming languages since Lisp in 1958. That was really a long time ago.

Maybe this is why it's named "Interbase Express" and not "Firebird Express"... Do you do low level access to Firebird? There is a low level Firebird interface API for Delphi and Lazarus from MWA Software (https://www.mwasoftware.co.uk/fb-pascal-api). It provides comprehensive documentation including a guide to write UDRs with pascal.

DevArt UniDAC supports MongoDB (dunno how well, never tested it). mORMot supports it too (https://github.com/synopse/mORMot2).

Until 2005 we used to use QuickReport Pro with QuickReport Designer, which was very buggy at that time. So we tried ReportBuilder Pro. It was very stable, had great documentation and lots of useful features. But it was so slow. Printing a report took more than ten times as long as with QR. Then we tried FastReport - and never looked back.

Hmm... 50 columns? So why not concatenate all of them and get the combined length, subtract this from 50 * 5 (length of "False") and you get the count of "true".

Have you tried ADO ("dbGo") instead of FireDAC?

If you don't need to access Paradox, only DBF, you can try TDbf. See If you need SQL queries, use FireDAC LocalSQL witf TDbf.

Hi all, is FireDAC extensible, so that I can add a custom database driver, e.g. for Absolute Database?

...would require GROUP BY, and then problems arrive with "AA" and "BB" not being grouped.
