Devart ODBC Driver for xBase provides direct connectivity to DBF-based data sources, full ODBC compliance, cross-platform availability, and compatibility with the xBase family of database management systems, including dBase, Clipper, FoxPro, and Visual FoxPro. It’s designed for efficient, stable, and flexible data access across various development environments.
The driver connects to xBase databases directly—no external libraries required. Direct connectivity improves performance and reduces system dependencies, making deployment more predictable and easier to manage across different environments.
The driver supports standard ODBC interfaces, including:
Additionally, it supports advanced connection string parameters, enabling desktop and web applications to connect to xBase databases across various environments and platforms that support ODBC.
The driver works across common platforms and doesn’t tie you to a specific development environment. Installation packages are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux (32-bit and 64-bit), so you can build cross-platform applications.
The driver supports dBase III through dBase 10, Clipper, FoxPro 2, Visual FoxPro, and other xBase-compatible databases.
The driver is built to support the development of high-performance, lightweight data access layers. It uses advanced data access algorithms and optimization techniques to ensure efficient and reliable connectivity.
