> 3) Is anyone using Dialect 1 with Firebird 2?

Yes and working fine. This is a converted IB 5.6 database.

Subject: [firebird-support] Firebird 2, Dialects and the BDE...



Hello All,

I have a simple question to ask just to see if anyone else is doing this
or knows about whether or not I should do it...

We currently have 40 or so Firebird 1.5 Dialect 1 databases running on
linux (CentOS and Firebird Classic). This was a migration from
Interbase 5.6 with one of the software clients being written in Delphi 7
over the BDE and another software client being written in java over
InterClient. Now it is still using Delphi 7 over the BDE, but the java
stuff has been converted to use JayBird. Our eventual goal is to move
to Firebird 2.1 (when it is released to production), use Dialect 3, and
get rid of the BDE. However, I was thinking of doing it one step at a
time to cut down on the number of changes which should hopefully cut
down on the amount of things that could go wrong.

Anyways, my questions are:

1) Is anyone using the BDE with Firebird 2?
2) Does the BDE work with Dialect 3 databases?
3) Is anyone using Dialect 1 with Firebird 2?

Thanks,
Steve
