The "Contributing" and "Getting started" pages are still missing, so, here are "by hand" instructions: First thing is to install databases, where SQL script can be found in example/<dbSpecificExample>/sql/Northwind.sql (the file name may vary). For all databases, user name is "LinqUser", password is "linq2".
Then, to create a new database vendor: - Starting from another vendor, by copying it, is probably the best option today. The smartest move is to start from a close database (regarding C-ISAM, I don't know what are its "cousins"). - Then, you need to setup the unit tests (same thing, you need to copy a .csproj from tests/Test_NUnit) - If you get around 150 failing tests, good news, you succeeded (this is the average failure rate). You can compare with SQLite results, sqlite doesn't require any database setup, so it doesn't require an extra effort. The common DbLinq pages are: Google code page: http://code.google.com/p/dblinq2007/ Wiki at: http://linq.to/db Ohloh statistics page: http://www.ohloh.net/projects/dblinq <http://www.ohloh.net/projects/dblinq>(this one is just for fun, but it actually is fun) Suggestions page: http://dblinq.uservoice.com And a lot of nice people (... aren't we?) are ready to answer to all your questions on this group. Thanks for contributing, and good luck ;) Pascal.
