Integrated Licensing for InterBase XE7

InterBase XE7 Developer Edition and InterBase XE7 ToGo are installed with RAD Studio (does not apply for Starter edition) and are included in the RAD Studio integrated license. This feature makes it easier for developers to create C++Builder and Delphi InterBase applications using RAD Studio. See IBLite and IBToGo Test Deployment Licensing for more information.

ToGo Test Deployment License

The ToGo Test Deployment license allows users to test InterBase applications on deployment machines. For example, a user who is developing a Windows 32-bit InterBase application can use a ToGo Test Deployment license to test the application on other machines running 32-bit or 64-bit Windows, or Mac OS X. For more information, see IBLite and IBToGo Test Deployment Licensing, or the complete InterBase ToGo Quick Start Guide.

ToGo dbExpress driver

RAD Studio contains the InterBase ToGo dbExpress driver, which enables easier interactions between InterBase ToGo databases and RAD Studio applications. The InterBase ToGo dbExpress driver makes it easier for developers to create InterBase ToGo applications with RAD Studio.

Windows Platforms

1. Download the InterBase_XE7_ToGo.zip file https://downloads.embarcadero.com/free/interbase, which includes the full file set for InterBase ToGo. Unzip your winxx_full.zip file (where xx=32 or 64) into a directory such as C:\InterBase\ToGo_full, so that you can copy them later.
2. Copy the required InterBase config and interbase.msg file for the full file set to an Interbase sub-directory under your application directory. For example:

3. In order to develop your application to work with the ToGo edition, replace the "gds32.lib" on your link path with the following files:

• For Embarcadero-based users, the file is located in the <app_dir>\interbase\sdk\lib\ibtogo.lib.
• For Microsoft-based users, the file is located in the <app_dir>\interbase\sdk\lib_ms\ibtogo_ms.lib.

Mac OS X Platform

1. Open the Application bundle (show Package Contents) where the Application is located.
2. Navigate to Contents/MacOS and extract the InterBase ToGo zip file contents.

• The osx32_min.zip file is the minimum file set required to deploy InterBase ToGo.
• The osx32_full.zip file includes the full file set for InterBase ToGo, and can be used for development with the ToGo edition.

3. The MacOS folder looks like the following with <interbase> as the location of the extracted files:

   yourapplication
   <interbase>
   libcgunwind.1.0.dylib
   libib_util.dylib
   libibxml.dylib
