TSQLConnection.VendorLib Property

Specifies the client software library (DLL or shared object) supplied by the database vendor.

Pascal

property VendorLib: string;

C++

__property AnsiString VendorLib;

Description

VendorLib is the library supplied by the database vendor to support client-side use of the database. Most applications do not need to use VendorLib directly, because this property is set automatically when the DriverName property is set.

Note: The association between a vendor library and a driver name is stored in the dbxdrivers.ini

file when you install the associated dbExpress driver. The file named by this property must be running on the same system as your application when it is deployed. Typically, it is installed when the database is installed rather than with your application.

Note: The VendorLib, LibraryName, and GetDriverFunc properties all reflect the values in the dbxdrivers.ini

file. Because these property values are published (stored with the connection component), it is possible to deploy an application without deploying the dbxdrivers.ini file.
