Osama Ghazal 3 Posted May 31, 2023 Hi All, is there is any documentation or books for firedac that help me to upgrade my knowledge? I look for FireDAC in Depth, but I found the most topics on fdmemorytable, and there is nothing deep. and the Embarcadero documentations and samples are very bad and complex, there is no explains enough. I have recordesd many videos on youtube and I feel that I am not strong enough in FireDAC. so, what is the solution? 1 Share this post Link to post

bazzer747 25 Posted June 3, 2023 I found Cary Jensen's book very deep and informative, with many examples. Always a go to when I'm not sure about something. 2 Share this post Link to post

Cary's book is still the reference, even if it's old and some things have changed in FireDAC. It remains the best resource for understanding the framework and the interactions between its components. 1 Share this post Link to post

I bought the book a few years ago when I was about to transition a system from ADO to FireDAC and I found the book to be completely useless. It covers the basics, but so does the help and the help is up to date. Advanced topics are barely covered at all. 1 Share this post Link to post
Blavatsky 0 Posted August 6, 2023 I noticed that he used Delphi 10 in the book. The Chapter 2, example on Paradox and FireDAC does not seem to run correctly in Delphi 11 on win 10 Home. Edition At least it shows it is possible. But, if smart people can barely do this stuff it is virtually impossible for neophytes such as myself. Share this post Link to post
