To connect to MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server (MSSQL), and MongoDB with Delphi, you can use different components or libraries that provide the necessary database connectivity. Delphi supports a variety of data access components for these databases. Below are examples for each database:
Connecting to MySQL:
For MySQL, you can use dbExpress components provided by Embarcadero. Make sure you have MySQL dbExpress driver installed. You can use the TSQLConnection
component to establish a connection.

uses Data.DBXMySql, Data.SqlExpr; var MySQLConnection: TSQLConnection; begin MySQLConnection := TSQLConnection.Create(nil); try MySQLConnection.DriverName := ‘MySQL’; MySQLConnection.LibraryName := ‘dbxmys.dll’; // MySQL dbExpress driver library MySQLConnection.GetDriverFunc := ‘getSQLDriverMYSQL’; MySQLConnection.VendorLib := ‘libmysql.dll’; // MySQL client library MySQLConnection.Params.Add(‘Database=mydatabase’); MySQLConnection.Params.Add(‘User_Name=myuser’); MySQLConnection.Params.Add(‘Password=mypassword’); MySQLConnection.Connected := True; // Use MySQLConnection to interact with the MySQL database finally MySQLConnection.Free; end; end; |
Connecting to Microsoft SQL Server (MSSQL):
For MSSQL, you can use dbExpress components with the MSSQL dbExpress driver. Ensure you have the necessary dbExpress driver installed for MSSQL.

uses Data.DBXMSSQL, Data.SqlExpr; var MSSQLConnection: TSQLConnection; begin MSSQLConnection := TSQLConnection.Create(nil); try MSSQLConnection.DriverName := ‘MSSQL’; MSSQLConnection.LibraryName := ‘dbxmss.dll’; // MSSQL dbExpress driver library MSSQLConnection.GetDriverFunc := ‘getSQLDriverMSSQL’; MSSQLConnection.Params.Add(‘Database=mydatabase’); MSSQLConnection.Params.Add(‘User_Name=myuser’); MSSQLConnection.Params.Add(‘Password=mypassword’); MSSQLConnection.Connected := True; // Use MSSQLConnection to interact with the MSSQL database finally MSSQLConnection.Free; end; end; |
Connecting to MongoDB:
For MongoDB, you can use the official MongoDB driver for Delphi, which is available on GitHub. You can use the TMongoConnection
component to connect to MongoDB.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 |
uses System.SysUtils, System.Classes, MongoDB.Driver; var MongoDBConnection: TMongoConnection; begin MongoDBConnection := TMongoConnection.Create(nil); try MongoDBConnection.Server := ‘localhost’; // MongoDB server address MongoDBConnection.Port := 27017; // MongoDB server port MongoDBConnection.Username := ‘myuser’; MongoDBConnection.Password := ‘mypassword’; MongoDBConnection.Database := ‘mydatabase’; MongoDBConnection.Open; // Use MongoDBConnection to interact with the MongoDB database finally MongoDBConnection.Free; end; end; |
Make sure to replace placeholders like 'localhost'
, 27017
, 'myuser'
, 'mypassword'
, 'mydatabase'
with your actual database connection details.
Remember to handle exceptions appropriately in your code and perform error checking during database operations.
