UniDAC applications can be built and deployed with or without runtime libraries. You can dynamically load packages by choosing Link with runtime packages in the Project Options dialog box. In earlier versions of Delphi, the option is called Build with runtime packages.
It is not required to deploy any files with a UniDAC application built without runtime packages, provided you have UniDAC Standard or Professional Edition. Make sure that your application does not use runtime packages (Link with runtime packages is not selected).
If you are deploying a UniDAC Trial application, these UniDAC libraries and their dependencies are required even when your application is built without runtime packages (XX depends on the version of your IDE).
| dacXX.bpl | mandatory |
| unidacXX.bpl | mandatory |
| rtlXX.bpl | mandatory |
| dbrtlXX.bpl | mandatory |
| vcldbXXX.bpl | mandatory |
You can build applications with runtime packages by selecting Link with runtime packages in Project Options before compiling the application. You must deploy these BPL files with your application (XX depends on the version of your IDE or the name of the provider).
| dacXX.bpl | mandatory |
| unidacXX.bpl | mandatory |
| XXproviderXX.bpl | for each necessary provider |
| dacvclXX.bpl | if an application uses the UniDacVcl unit |
| unidacvclXX.bpl | if an application uses the UniDacVcl unit |
| dacfmxXX.bpl | if an application uses the UniDacFmx unit |
| unidacfmxXX.bpl | if an application uses the UniDacFmx unit |
| XXdacXX.bpl | for each necessary provider (only in Express Edition) |
| crcontrolsXX.bpl | if an application uses the CRDBGridcomponent |
| tdsproviderXX.bpl | if an application connects in the Direct mode |
| odbcproviderXX.bpl | if an application connects through an ODBC driver |
| vqueryXX.bpl | if an application connects to DBF files |
If you have UniDAC Express Edition, you must deploy XdacXX.bpl with your application because in Express Edition, XXproviderXX.bpl is just a wrapper around XdacXX.bpl. It is not required to deploy the XdacXX.bpl file with the application if you have UniDAC Professional or Standard Edition because the XXproviderXX.bpl file already includes the functionality of XdacXX.bpl.
Note that UniDAC Trial requires deployment of additional BPL files regardless of Link with runtime packages.
