Developing Database Applications with ADO.NET 

ADO.NET presents a coherent programming model for exposing data access within the .NET Framework. In addition to supporting MS SQL, Oracle, and OLE DB connection components within the .NET Framework, RAD Studio includes data providers for .NET (AdoDbxClient Provider). AdoDbx supports access to MS SQL, Oracle, DB2, and Interbase. AdoDbx component designers ease the generation and configuration of AdoDbx components.
If you are developing new VCL Forms applications for the .NET Framework, or you are migrating existing Win32 VCL Forms applications to the .NET Framework, RAD Studio provides continued support for existing Delphi database technologies, such as dbExpress and dbGo.... more 

Developing Applications with Unmanaged Code 

RAD Studio provides the capability to work with the .NET features that support unmanaged code.
If you have COM or ActiveX components that you want to use within the .NET Framework, you can use the .NET COM Interop capabilities from within RAD Studio while building your applications. 

Modeling Concepts 

This section provides information on modeling and code visualization. 

Developing Reports for .NET Applications 

RAD Studio ships with Rave Reports from Nevrona. Using the report components, you can build full-featured reports for your applications. You can create solutions that include reporting capabilities which can be used and customized by your customers. 

Developing Applications with VCL.NET Components 

VCL.NET is an extended set of the VCL components that provide a way to quickly build advanced applications in Delphi. With VCL.NET you can provide your Delphi VCL applications and components to Microsoft .NET Framework users. With RAD Studio you gain the benefit of the .NET Framework along with the ease-of-use and powerful component-driven application development of Delphi.
RAD Studio provides distinct application types for your use: you can create VCL.NET form applications that run on the .NET Framework that use VCL.NET components and controls; you can create .NET applications that use the underlying .NET Framework and .NET controls while... more 

Developing Web Applications with ASP.NET 

ASP.NET is the programming model for building Web applications using the .NET Framework. This section provides the conceptual background for building ASP.NET applications using RAD Studio. In addition to supporting data access components within the .NET Framework, RAD Studio includes DB Web Controls. DB Web Controls work with .NET Framework providers and Borland Data Providers for .NET (BDP.NET) to accelerate Web application development. 

Developing Web Services with ASP.NET 

Web Services is a programmable entity that provides a particular element of functionality, such as application logic. Web Services is accessible to any number of potentially disparate systems through the use of Internet standards, such as XML and HTTP. Applications built with ASP.NET Web Services can be either stand-alone applications or subcomponents of a larger web application and can provide application components to any number of distributed systems using XML-based messaging. RAD Studio provides a number of methods that can help you build, deploy, and use applications with ASP.NET Web Services. For more general information about Web Services, refer to... more
