<p>Hi,<br>
</p>
<div>I remember that years ago in Delphi I often used
Paradox (less often dBase) to create a small stand-alone
database with my Delphi desktop programs. It had tge
advantage of <br>
</div>
<div> 1. using Delphi database controls,<br>
</div>
<div> 2. no need for a database server or DBMS to be
installed on the client's machine (= less resources), <br>
</div>
<div> 3. having the ability to deploy the database
(basically the DB file(s) (I think it was one file per
table), a .dll and a setup file telling the program
where the db is stored (and links between tables?)) all
together in a single install file (Installshield most of
the time, sometimes a custom self-extracting file).<br>
</div>
<p>I am sure that Lazarus must still be used for these
kind of quick-and-easy small stand-alone desktop
applications. But what is your favourite small/embedded
database for this kind of once-off personal programs
these days, and why? Preferably something that can be
used on both Linux and Windows without the need for ODBC
or similar.<br>
</p>
<div>Cheers<br>
