FireMonkey access SQL Server on Android or iOS


Is there any way to access a SQL Server database using Delphi XE5 FireMonkey in an Android or iOS application? There doesn't appear to be a way to do it using FireDAC or UniDAC.


Solution

  • The recommended way to access SQL Server from iOS and Android is via DataSnap. You have to make a DataSnap-Server on a Windows-Machine that connects to SQL Server. The iOS and Android clients then connect to the DataSnap-Server.
