Hi,
Just over 3 years ago I asked about FPC support for creating 3-tier
database applications. The answer was basically: it's not possible
(unless you roll your own Midas / Datasnap code).
TClientDataset also missed some vital features, and the state of
WebServices was also not complete.
Here is the original message thread:

So after 3 year, what has changed? Is the missing parts already
implement, and is a Midas / Datasnap style 3-tier application possible
with FPC?
I also believe Borland/CodeGear/Embarcadero released the Midas source
code in post Delphi 7 versions. Anybody have success in compiling that
code with FPC? Yes I know you can't release such code, and yes I know
Datasnap will probably only work with Windows. But from my Kylix 3
manual it mentions TSoapConnection and WebServices for multi-tier
development, so was wondering if FPC had no alternative, if I could
possibly compile that Kylix 3 code using FPC - anybody tried this before?
I know it's a bit late, only just noticed this thread, but we support
FPC with DA and RO too. www.remobjects.com/da
