Hi; I have some question again about installation DDEX provider and thanks for help; I found this guide for installation but have some problem about it;
* DDEX and Firebird .NET Data Provider * Well, in this article I'm going do describe step-by-step how-to add *Firebird .NET Data Provider into Visual Studio 2005. So I assume, I have *downloaded and installed the provider (be sure that's for .NET2). *You have to download the VS SDK (not the Framework SDK). It's available on *MSDN. *It's not the standard part of installation. In my MicrosoftVisualStudio Directory exist sdk direc , is this VS SDK? *Check whether (installation should add them in) the provider assemblies are in *GAC (you can use the gacutil util from provider directory or the Framework GUI). *You have to focus to FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient (gacutil.exe /l *FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient). What is GAC and where is it? *Locate your machine.config and add into <configuration> -> <configSections> *add <section name="firebirdsql.data.firebirdclient" *type="System.Data.Common.DbProviderConfigurationHandler, System.Data, *Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, *PublicKeyToken=PublicKeyToken_of_System.Data_assembly" />. What's the meaning of machine.cofig and where do I copy these sentences? *Into <system.data> -> <DbProviderFactories> add <add name="FirebirdClient Data *Provider" invariant="FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient" description=".Net Framework *Data Provider for Firebird" *type="FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.FirebirdClientFactory, *FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, *PublicKeyToken=PublicKeyToken_of_your_FB_client_assembly" />. Is the <system.data> in reg file of provider and Do I open it with notepad and edit it? *Then open the FirebirdDDEXProvider.reg file and replace the %Path% variable with *the correct path for your installation, i.e.: C:\Program Files\FirebirdClient , and load *it into the registry (also check whether all entries were successfuly added). *But! If you're adding the path to the reg file you have input C:\\Program *Files\\FirebirdClient (backslash the backslashes). *Now you can startup the VS and try to add database to Database Explorer toolbox. I replace the (%path%) with (c:\program files\...) without double backslash and without % is it correct? Plz Don't laugh me:) . I haven't any information and my English is very bad? :) best regards; On 12/15/07, Jiri Cincura <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 12/15/07, nasim Hemmati <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > i have just a datababe(DB.fdb file) and .dll file of database. > > You mean DLL of Firebird, right? > > > can i connect to it without install firebird or not? > > You can use Firebird Embedded; FirebirdClient supports it. > > > and what OS regired ? > > FirebirdClient is limited only to place where .NET FW can be > installed.
