RB 9 & Nexus DADE Plugin

rbuser

Guys,

I'm not yet ready to move to RB 10.x. Is there a current NexusDB Plugin that works with Nexus 2.05x and RB 9.x?


If so, where does one download it?

Thanks,

John Turner

Hi John,

The older version of the NexusDB plugin can be downloaded from our web site
at the following address. Note that you will need to change the package
contents and file name to match the versions of RB and Nexus you are using.

Nico,

These files have a date of 9/23/03....Are they OK to use with RB 9.x?

Thanks,

John

Hi John,

Yes, this should still work. We did not change the plugin architecture
until RB 10.x.

Nico,

I rebuilt everything using the latest download for the Nexus DADE plugin from the RB site.

Unfortunately, I'm getting the same error. The error is I think due to the fact that Nexus DB version 2.x must CAST as
dates.

Are there specific lines of the daSQL.pas unit that can be altered for non RB version 10 users that are also using Nexus DB?

Thanks for any help!

Can you please elaborate on this statement. (I read this thread and find no
prior mention of an error.) Are you getting a compile error? Or are a
runtime error? What do mean by cast as dates.

Nard,

Its a runtime error...type mismatch when attempting to add date, or datetime field search parameters.

NexusDB: Query execution failed:
Unexepected exception object raised: [Exception]Error in statement: Type mismatch [no error code];

Apparently, Nexus V2 complies with SQL 2003 which handles dates differently?

Thanks for any clues/help.

Nico and I researched this further.

For RB 10 we added native support for Nexus v2. The required modifications
were not isolated to the Nexus plug-in. We also had to modify the TdaSQL
class.

So the bottom line is that RB 9 does not work with Nexus v2.

Nard,

Thanks.

I'm getting ready to upgrade to V10 anyway.

I appreciate the research on this.
