Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC) is a library of components that provides native connectivity to Oracle from Delphi, C++Builder, Lazarus (and Free Pascal) for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and FreeBSD platforms. The ODAC library is designed to help programmers develop faster, cleaner and more native Oracle database applications. ODAC, a high-performance and feature-rich Oracle connectivity solution, is an efficient native alternative to the Borland Database Engine (BDE) and standard dbExpress driver. It provides both possibility of connection to Oracle by means of native Oracle data access and direct access to Oracle without Oracle Client.
The ODAC library is actively developed and supported by the Devart Team. If you have questions about ODAC, email the developers at odac@devart.com or visit ODAC online at http://devart.com/odac/
