4.1.1 Requirements

The following components must be pre-installed on your system:

Þ    nmake or win32 g++ Compiler

Visual Studio C++ 2005 or higher is recommended

Visual Studio C++ 2005 Express Edition is also supported

Þ    A developer database (or access to a dedicated server)

The following database servers are supported:

·        MS-SQL Server Version 7 or higher (including the Express Edition)

·        *Oracle Version 9i or higher

·        Postgres Version 8.0 or higher

·        MySQL Version 5.0 or higher

·        *Sybase ASA Version 12.0 or higher

·        SQLite

·        *MS-Access Version 2000 or higher

·        *Firebird Version 2.0 or higher

*     For these database providers you must also order the corresponding QT framework plugin

For code generation we recommend a Microsoft SQL Server because it stores the metadata in a case-sensitive form in the Information Catalog. Case-sensitive code generation can also be achieved using other database providers if the DDL statements (table names and field names) are enclosed in quotation marks. If case-sensitive code generation for table names and field names is not required, any database provider can be used.

IMPORTANT: Once the code generated, the restrictions described above do not apply anymore, since the generated code provides the metadata for the sublayers
