[Firebird-net-provider] DDEX stuff
Perhaps I might be able to lend a little help on the DDEX front ...
Here's a few changes to the reg file that should make Firebird packageless.
Replace any occurrance of "VisualStudio" with "VWDExpress" to make the reg
file work on that Express edition:

The changes above are to replace the FactoryService entry with Codebase, and
specify the full path to the design-time DLL.
The second change was to add class locations to many of the
SupportedObjects. Not all of them need to be explicitly declared -- some of
them are instantiated from FbDataConnectionSupport.
Getting it to work in the other Express Editions is a little more
complicated.
Now then, as for the VSIP SDK requirement in order to get the DDEX packaged
provider working ... Carlos, run right over to the http://www.vsipdev.com
website and register there! Once registered, you can create a product and
request a Package Load Key.
Once you get a PLK granted, you can then add the PLK contents to the
satellite DLL, and add a few more keys to the reg file, and then nobody will
have to download the VSIP SDK in order to use the Firebird DDEX provider
anymore.
Furthermore, if you really want to get clever, you can do a neat little
trick in FbDataConnectionProperties so that you no longer have to register
the Firebird data provider in the GAC in order to use the designer. It
requires some more reg file changes however.

Re: [Firebird-net-provider] DDEX stuff
One other thing ... if you go packageless, you don't need the VSIP SDK either. That and supporting all the Express Editions are the primary reason I'm leaving the SQLite provider packageless.

- Original Message - From: "Graham Hardwick" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Thursday, April 20, 2006 6:57 AM Subject: [Firebird-net-provider] DDEX Has anyone looked at how SQLite's ADO.NET 2.0 provider integrates with Visual Studio 2005 ? It only requires running the install.exe file and SQLite is available in VS2005. Firebird's provider's integration into VS2005 is clumsy, and it's not available like SQLite's is. Since SQLite is open source too, maybe its provider's installer could be adapted to the Firebird's provider. I've looked, but I can't do it. This would probably help you Firebird users out a lot :) The install.exe file does the following: - Automatically detects what VS2005 editions you have installed and allows you to install the provider into each one on an individual basis. - Installs the SQLite provider and its designer into the GAC - Adds the SQLite provider to the machine.config on both 32-bit and 64-bit frameworks - "Moves" the JET database provider on Express Editions and replaces the JET entries with SQLite entries so that SQLite can be used on Express Editions. (Also moves it back when you uninstall the SQLite provider) - Adds SQLite's path to the registry so it can be found when adding it to Compact Framework projects and full .NET projects - Adds it's paths for all the build types to the LIBPATH variable -- no easy task actually as VS2005 puts this information in several places on disk and in your localsettings folder. This is needed in order to support typed dataset generation in managed C++ The installer is one of those projects I slapped together quickly and it kindof grew up a little too fast -- so its not as readable as my other code nor as easy to follow. In order to adapt it to Firebird you'd have to: - Change the GUID's for the DataProvider and DataSource from SQLite's to Firebird's - Change all the folder paths that the install.exe expects to find things in. ** This one is loaded -- all the XML editing code for setting the LIBPATH and things also have to be changed. - Comment out the 64-bit GAC registration, provided Firebird was pure MSIL and compiled for "Any CPU" - Change all the namespace references from SQLite's to Firebird's. This includes the various Firebird designer namespaces and class names. Robert --- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

Re: [Firebird-net-provider] Getting a single value from the database in C#
If you don't care about the ID, just SELECT COUNT(CLI_COD) FROM CLIENTES
(etc etc)
That way ExecuteScalar() will return 0 if there are no rows, or >0 if there
were rows. You won't have to check for NULL's that way.

I have the same problem with the SQLite provider. Basically what you have to do is generate a simple select statement to make the querybuilder build the other statements, then show the properties for the generated tableAdapter, and manually edit your select statement afterwards. I've submitted several feature requests to the DDEX team -- but based on a response I got on one of them, it looks like no DDEX changes are planned for ORCAS. https://connect.microsoft.com/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=123835&S iteID=210 https://connect.microsoft.com/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=123836&S iteID=210 https://connect.microsoft.com/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=123833&S iteID=210 https://connect.microsoft.com/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=123834&S iteID=210 I didn't submit a feature request for the query builder itself, though. =0 ___ Firebird-net-provider mailing list Firebird-net-provider@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-net-provider

Re: [Firebird-net-provider] Problem on dispose implementaionin fbcommand
Carlos -- you can modify the dispose on the FbCommand so that if a
datareader is active when the command is disposed, the command doesn't
actually dispose, but modifies some internal flag on the FbDataReader that
tells the FbDataReader that it now "owns" the command and should dispose the
command when the reader is disposed.

To make Firebird work on Express, do this:
1. Run REGEDIT
2. Expand one of the following (depending on the Express Edition installed):
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\VCSExpress\8.0
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\VBExpress\8.0
3. Find and expand the DataProviders key
4. Find the key under DataProviders named "{7F041D59-D76A-44ed-9AA2-FBF6B0548B80}" and rename it (change one of the numbers in the GUID is the best bet)
5. Going back to the root 8.0 section, find and expand the DataSources key
6. Rename the subkey "{466CE797-67A4-4495-B75C-A3FD282E7FC3}" to something else (again just change one of the numbers).
7. Copy this data to a .reg file:
