Sounds like a lot of work.  But, I have one question and forgive me if I am showng my ignorance.  Won't modules that provide data access have to provide an installation script for each data provider?

  • If the module uses the new DAL+ and uses sql statements (written in standard SQL) it will work unmodified! (see: Super-Simple Module (DAL+) )
  • If the Module uses stored procedures and the DAL+ it will only have to have a script that creates the MySQL stored procedures. This should take only 5 minutes per stored procedure to translate (and there may be commercial products that will do it for you).

Michael,

if the mysql script for a module is not included with the module PA, you will need to execute it manually from host menu, SQL.

Right, but using the ExecuteSQL method of the DAL+ allows you to create modules that don't need stored procedures. Now of course you would need a script if your module had it's own tables but there are many use cases where a module only needs to store a small amount of information and they can use this method: Module Settings & Personalization

Michael - first off, thank you for your website and tutorials.  A great resource.

My question perhaps for both yourself and leupold - Is there an impact for getting your module verified/blessed if you choose to go with SQL statements in your module vs. sprocs?  Or with typed datasets vs. old fashioned classes?  Performance impacts aside (I know sprocs are faster as they are precompiled and that typed datasets are heavy).  Just wondering if the verification process places any weight on form versus function.  TIA.
