Free Pascal TArrayField

[julkas]

I can't find TArrayField class.

Please advice.

AFAICS in unit db, there is not special field type for field type ftArray:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. const
2.   DefaultFieldClasses : Array [TFieldType] of TFieldClass =
3.     (
4.       { ftUnknown} Tfield,
5.       { ftString} TStringField,
6. ...
7.       { ftFixedChar} TStringField,
8.       { ftWideString} TWideStringField,
9.       { ftLargeint} TLargeIntField,
10.       { ftADT} Nil,
11.       { ftArray} Nil,                      // <------------------- HERE
12.       { ftReference} Nil,
13.       { ftDataSet} Nil,
14.       { ftOraBlob} TBlobField,
15.       { ftOraClob} TMemoField,
16.       { ftVariant} TVariantField,
17. ...
18.       { ftWideMemo} TWideMemoField
19.     );                                

Maybe you should repost this question on the fpc mailing list so that the developers who wrote database support can see your request.

@wp Ok, I will repost.
Any other third-party Delphi compatible DB library/framework?

IBX includes support for Firebird Arrays and defines the TIBArrayField type for this purpose.

ZEOS also has an array field type. ZEOS is available for both Delphi and Lazarus.

IBX and ZEOS are great projects.
I will check both.
Thanks.
