BCB and MySQL

[Blaster]

Hi to everyone...

I have a project to make, and I want to use BCB and MySQL .

Based on your experience, is this a good combination...?

I often find texts on the internet saying that this is not a good combination, and that BCB and MySQL just don't get along...

What do YOU have to say about this?

Do you have any FREE BCB-MySQL  components to recommend. It also has to be BUG-FREE :-)
And the most important thing is: I need components that doesn't need any extra drivers and stuff  installed on server or host in order to use my app ... ( for example: BDE )

I don't know the answer but i'd be interested in hearing what you find.

here is a link from a wonderful site that Mouser ALWAYS refers me to: http://www.torry.net...=MySQL&Title=Yes...
That is Torry's Delphi site and they have a great list of components for BCB and anything that is Delphi...

@Renox:
thanks for the link... I'll check it out later...

I did some searching  and I found several components...

for example this one:

http://www.microolap...y/mysqldac/download/

It is extreamly easy to use and It's very interesting, but it seems like it has some bugs... Or my BCB crashed...???

If someone here has already tried this one, please tell me about your experience with it...

I'm affraid I 'll be forced to work with SQL Server 2005  Express Edition at the end, and I don't like that at all...
