Starting from this version, EasyTable is avaivable for Delphi 4 and C++ Builder 4 as well as for Delphi 5, Delphi 6 and C++ Builder 5.
Now EasyTable supports such Table's features as Key and Range methods, so, EasyTable now supports all the basic TTable capabilities, providing some special ones along, which makes it quite a handly developing tool.
Besides, EasyTable had been essentially changed in order to support Shareable In Memory capabilities. Developers using our product will now be able to work with the same table using several TEasyTable components at a time.
Another one important new feature is that we brought in the in-memory mode for operating upon small sized databases in memory. In this mode recording to disc is executed when necessary by means of calling the SaveTable method, which may give a certain advantadge in speed when working with databases which may be read to perating storage as a whole, due to their size. Here we must remind you that EasyTable has its own cache for working with disc, so we recommend that you try and determine, whether the in-memory mode will bring you any advantage in speed in your case.
We have also improved the support of large-size tables. Now working with great number of records will speed up essentially.
Moreover, now EasyTable consists of two components. We added TEasyDatabase component which is TDatabase replacement for more convenience in keeping several tables in a single directory, as an interim increment to creation of flat-format (all the database tables in a single file). This feature will also appear soon in one of the closest releases.
