I bet you didn’t know, but OpenBase makes their excellent database server, OpenBase SQL 10, available for free for REALbasic developers (OpenBase Unlimited for REALbasic).  This edition includes Code Builder, a free license to On-Target Reports and requires you to use the REALbasic Connectivity module (not the plugin) to connect.

Scott Keith of OpenBase was kind enough to pass along the license information for this edition and has given me permission to publish it here:

Serial Number: OBEMBREALBASIC-639
Authorization Code: P-10-10.0-528-67E-A7C

This license works with either the Mac OS X or Windows versions, but not the Linux version.

    I seem to be confused, but I don’t see what version I’m supposed to download. I guess I’m looking for a link to click that says “OpenBase Unlimited for REALbasic”, but I don’t see it. Maybe you can point me in the right direction on what I need to download.

    Hi Dirk,

    Just download either OpenBase SQL 10.0.9 OSX or OpenBase SQL 10.0.9 WIndows. After you install it and run OpenBaseManager you’ll be prompted to enter the license information.

    Thanks!

    I am new to RB, could u explain what do u mean by “and requires you to use the REALbasic Connectivity module (not the plugin) to connect”?

    The “REALbasic Connectivity Module” is a set of REALbasic classes provided by OpenBase to connect to OpenBase from REALbasic. OpenBase used to provide a plugin, but they no longer support it because it was never updated for Universal Binaries, among other things I imagine.

    The difference is that with a plugin you could use the standard REALbasic database programming API. Using their Connectivity Module, you have to use a similar, but still slightly different, programming API.

    I hope this helps.
