In this chapter, we have examined the cross-platform data access layer dbExpress, which consists of new, fast, and unidirectional DataSet components that can be connected to ClientDataSets for caching and bidirectional cursor support. Especially now that development and support of the BDE has been frozen and SQL Links will even be deprecated in future versions of C++Builder, leads to the conclusion that dbExpress will play an important role for data access with C++Builder.
