Lazarus Pascal - DB Connection - clarification
- by itsols
The following code is from the docs here:
Program ConnectDB
var AConnection : TSQLConnection;
Procedure CreateConnection;
begin
AConnection := TIBConnection.Create(nil);
AConnection.Hostname := 'localhost';
AConnection.DatabaseName := '/opt/firebird/examples/employee.fdb';
AConnection.UserName := 'sysdba';
AConnection.Password := 'masterkey';
end;
begin
CreateConnection;
AConnection.Open;
if Aconnection.Connected then
writeln('Succesful connect!')
else
writeln('This is not possible, because if the connection failed, ' +
'an exception should be raised, so this code would not ' +
'be executed');
AConnection.Close;
AConnection.Free;
end.
The main body of the code makes sense to me BUT I don't get where TSQLConnection came from. I cannot use CTRL + Space to autocomplete it either, which means my program has no reference to it. I'm trying to connect to Postgres by the way.
Can someone please state what TSQLConnection is? Thanks!
