How Does Titan Work?
In Delphi 1.0, 2.0, and C++ Builder 1.0, Titan replaces the Borland Database Engine (BDE) interface such that the TQuery, TTable, and other database related components connect directly to Titan, rather than the BDE. This architecture is shown in the picture above. This allows Titan to be installed transparently, maintaining compatibility with all data-aware components like grids, edit boxes, report writers, etc. This seamless architecture is the real power of Titan. In more recent versions of Delphi and C++ Builder, Borland changed the architecture slightly, allowing the use of “Virtual Datasets” as shown above. This makes it easier to install Titan into these development tools. With these Borland tools, Titan provides a complete set of database interface components identical to the Borland ones, except that they talk directly to the Access DAO Interface. Delphi Support Titan fully supports Delphi versions 2.0, 3.0 4.0, 5.0, and 6.0. Since Titan was the world’s first BDE replacement, i
