Android Question db support

[kr1p]

Hi,
I recently was advised to have a look at b4a for android app development.
I've downloaded the book "rapid android app developpment using basic" but when it deals with
databases, it's only about sqlite. Let's suppose i have a postgresql database set up on a
webserver and i want my app to connect to this databases to retrieve a sqlite file:is this possible
to code with b4a?
thank you.
best regards,

You have two options:
1. Good option: jRDC2 https://www.b4x.com/search?query=jRDC2
2. Not so good, but can be reasonable in some cases: JdbcSQL https://www.b4x.com/search?query=JdbcSQL

I have been use jRDC2 with Firebird database for years, in fact, that is the main use B4A for me.

It is very good, fast & reliable.

Incendio,

I've been looking through the forum and I am having trouble getting jRDC2 to work with fb3, could you share some of the details of your success?
Are you using fb2.5 or3?
which jaybird driver are you using?
What are you using for a jdbcUrl?

Ultimately I'll be using fb on a vps but currently trying to get it working on win10, I have determined that my instance is working by connecting with the sample employee db using isql

Thanks in advance for any info you can share with me.

I am using firebird 3.

What's exactly the problem you have?

Since this is someone thread, I think it's better you start a new thread to describe your problem in detail.
I will answer there.
