[Firebird-net-provider] Read-only primary key

[Peter Martens]

Hello,   I found something strange when using the .net data provider 1.7a on Firebird 1.5. I have set the property of a DataColumn of a table in a dataset to ReadOnly=true because it is the primary key. That signals the dialog to make the field read-only. After having done that and added a row with a fresh ID in the primary key field, the dataset is not correctly Update’d by the provider: it says the PK field is *** null ***, but I can see in the watch-window that it isn’t null in the dataset. If I switch off the read-only property, it works correctly (but my dialog doesn’t)   Bug or feature? Peter.   BTW, I also had problems with numeric error codes, saying “No Message found for…”, as I read others had as well. I uninstalled the provider and Firebird alltogether, then deleted the remains from ‘Program Files’ manually and re-installed (first Firebird with default settings, then the data-provider) and rebuilt my solution. Then I had messages again.
