Installing Data Abstract in Delphi

There are several ways to install Data Abstract on your system and integrate it with Delphi, C++Builder or RAD Studio.

  • "Data Abstract for Delphi" will install support for building Delphi based clients.
  • "Data Abstract for Delphi, Server Edition" will also install support for building Delphi-based Custom Data Abstract servers.

Supported Versions

Data Abstract supports Delphi 7 and later, including Delphi 2005-2009, Delphi XE thru XE8 and Delphi 10 "Seattle". Support for new versions will be added as they come out, without this page necessarily being updated right away to reflect the latest version supported.

Trial

The trial version is fully functional without any technical limitations, however your apps will display a trial message when run and are not licensed for distribution. IDE functionality will disable after the 30-day trial period is over.

Full Version

Installing the full version of Data Abstract is easy. Simply download the installer from the licensed downloads page, and run it. You can update from the trial to the full version, and update to newer versions, without needing to uninstall.
