Hello!

 

Can somebody help me out with an issue?

 

I have a server >Firebird-2.1.3.18185_0_Win32.exe<, which works perfectly
well, and from IBExplorer on my PC I can browse the database without any
problems. Server OS is WinXP SP2.

 

My goal is to connect from Windows CE 5 (exact version is 5.2.1810), with
.NET CF 3.5. (I develop with VS2008, C#.)

 

If I use allready compiled 2.5.1.0 .NET provider dll, downloaded from
official site, I get an >method not found< exception in runtime when calling
FBConnection object Open() method on a device. The same goes for newer dll
2.5.2.0. I have downloaded source and try to compile it for a Window CE, but
without success. Tried many options (NET_20; NET_CF; NET_35) individually or
together, created new project for smart devices as I found some information
on the internet. I even tried to get older versions from svn, hoping to get
a project, already prepared for Win CE platform, but sadly haven't found
any.

 

I have to mention I have no problem connecting to the same database running
on 1.5 firebird server, with 1.7 .NET provider on Win CE device. But to 2.1
firebird I can not, and that is why I am trying all described, but as we
have other databases on 2.1, I need to connect on that one also running
there.

 

My question is what is in my power to do? I obviously do not have enough
knowledge about  .NET provider 2.5.1 (or higher) source code and how to get
it running. Do you know maybe where to get a project allready configured for
WinCE device building or a project which was used to build dlls provided for
download, so I can include it into my solution in VS. Or the other way, how
to compile any provided source (and which one) with as little problems as
possible to get a workable dll, not giving me a missing method exception?

 

I have lost more than 30 hours, frustrating a lot, without any useful
result, so I would really be glad to help me out.

 

Thank you, sincerely

Jernej Bodlaj
