DataBind Controls to Kafka データ in C++Builder

DataBind to Kafka のデータ in C++Builder with standard components and controls.

最終更新日:2023-06-12

The CData ODBC Driver for Kafka makes it easy to integrate connectivity to live Kafka のデータ with standard data access components in C++Builder. This article shows how to create a simple visual component library (VCL) application in C++Builder that connects to Kafka のデータ, executes queries, and displays the results in a grid. An additional section shows how to use FireDAC components to execute commands from code.

Create a Connection to Kafka データ

If you have not already, first specify connection properties in an ODBC DSN (data source name). This is the last step of the driver installation. You can use the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to create and configure ODBC DSNs.

Apache Kafka 接続プロパティの取得・設定方法

.NET ベースのエディションは、Confluent.Kafka およびlibrdkafka ライブラリに依存して機能します。 これらのアセンブリはインストーラーにバンドルされ、自動的に本製品と一緒にインストールされます。 別のインストール方法を利用する場合は、NuGet から依存関係のあるConfluent.Kafka 2.6.0 をインストールしてください。

Apache Kafka サーバーのアドレスを指定するには、BootstrapServers パラメータを使用します。

デフォルトでは、本製品はデータソースとPLAINTEXT で通信し、これはすべてのデータが暗号化なしで送信されることを意味します。 通信を暗号化するには:

  1. UseSSLtrue に設定し、本製品がSSL 暗号化を使用するように構成します。
  2. SSLServerCert およびSSLServerCertType を設定して、サーバー証明書をロードします。

Apache Kafka への認証

Apache Kafka データソースは、次の認証メソッドをサポートしています:

  • Anonymous
  • Plain
  • SCRAM ログインモジュール
  • SSL クライアント証明書
  • Kerberos

Anonymous

Apache Kafka の特定のオンプレミスデプロイメントでは、認証接続プロパティを設定することなくApache Kafka に接続できます。 こうした接続はanonymous(匿名)と呼ばれます。

匿名認証を行うには、このプロパティを設定します。

  • AuthSchemeNone

その他の認証方法については、ヘルプドキュメントを参照してください。

You can then follow the steps below to use the Data Explorer to create a FireDAC connection to Kafka.

  1. In a new VCL Forms application, expand the FireDAC node in the Data Explorer.
  2. Right-click the ODBC Data Source node in the Data Explorer.
  3. Click Add New Connection.
  4. Enter a name for the connection.
  5. In the FireDAC Connection Editor that appears, set the DataSource property to the name of the ODBC DSN for Kafka.

Create VCL Applications with Connectivity to Kafka データ

Follow the procedure below to start querying Kafka のデータ from a simple VCL application that displays the results of a query in a grid.

  1. Drop a TFDConnection component onto the form and set the following properties:

    • ConnectionDefName: Select the FireDAC connection to Kafka.
    • Connected: Select True from the menu and, in the dialog that appears, enter your credentials.
  2. Drop a TFDQuery component onto the form and set the properties below:

    • Connection: Set this property to the TFDConnection component, if this component is not already specified.
    • SQL: Click the button in the SQL property and enter a query. For example:

      SELECT Id, Column1 FROM SampleTable_1 WHERE Column2 = '100'
    • Active: Set this property to true.
  3. Drop a TDataSource component onto the form and set the following property:

    • DataSet: In the menu for this property, select the name of the TFDQuery component.
  4. Drop a TDBGrid control onto the form and set the following property:

    • DataSource: Select the name of the TDataSource.
  5. Drop a TFDGUIxWaitCursor onto the form — this is required to avoid a run-time error.

Execute Commands to Kafka with FireDAC Components

You can use the TFDConnection and TFQuery components to execute queries to Kafka のデータ. This section provides kafkaspecific examples of executing queries with the TFQuery component.

Connect to Kafka データ

To connect to the data source, set the Connected property of the TFDConnection component to true. You can set the same properties from code:

FDConnection1->ConnectionDefName = "CData Kafka ODBC Source"; FDConnection1->Connected = true;

To connect the TFDQuery component to Kafka のデータ, set the Connection property of the component. When a TFDQuery component is added at design time, its Connection property is automatically set to point to a TFDConnection on the form, as in the application above.

Create Parameterized Queries

To create a parameterized query, use the following syntax below:

FDQuery1->SQL->Text = "select * from SampleTable_1 where column2 = :Column2"; FDQuery1->ParamByName("column2")->AsString = "100"; query->Open();

The example above binds a string-type input parameter by name and then opens the dataset that results.

Prepare the Statement

Preparing statements is costly in system resources and time. The connection must be active and open while a statement is prepared. By default, FireDAC prepares the query to avoid recompiling the same query over and over. To disable statement preparation, set ResourceOptions.DirectExecute to True; for example, when you need to execute a query only once.

Execute a Query

To execute a query that returns a result set, such as a select query, use the Open method. The Open method executes the query, returns the result set, and opens it. The Open method will return an error if the query does not produce a result set.

FDQuery1->SQL->Text := "select * from SampleTable_1 where column2 = :Column2"; FDQuery1.ParamByName("column2")->AsString = "100"; FDQuery1->Open();

To execute a query that does not return a result set, use the ExecSQL method. The ExecSQL method will return an error if the query returns a result set. To retrieve the count of affected rows use the TFD.RowsAffected property.

FDQ.SQL.Text := "delete from SampleTable_1 where Id = :Id"; FDQuery1->Params->Items[0]->AsString = "x12345"; FDQuery1->ExecSQL(); AnsiString i = FDQuery1->RowsAffected;
