Re: [GENERAL] Why PGSQL has no developments in the .NET area?
Hi, Sorry for the delay. I used Npgsql 2.0 last and it was slow when querying database to populate DataGridView or DropDownLists in Windows Forms application. To verify, I removed Npgsql and installed pgsql's ODBC driver. It worked very fast. In another case, when the user brings focus on any DropDownList, the list fills with filtered records. This filling was slow when compared to the ODBC driver. I checked Npgsql latest release on this page of PgFoundry. When you all are saying that Npgsql's last release was 9, I suspect whether I am looking the latest release on a correct website or not. Regards, Rohit Khare.

Hi! What usage case of Npgsql are you having performance issues?

Re: [GENERAL] Why PGSQL has no developments in the .NET area?
I do not understand what you mean by the term sluggish? Every .NET driver has some overhead when you first load it, and then it is being cached into memory. I have used Npgsql and it worked great for me. If you are not satisfied with Npgsql, try Devarts connector.

Not enough interest maybe? But really, why would you need to? I assume .net is not so crippled that it can't link to a .dll, correct? Why not just use the native libpq.dll? The interface is well documented and simple to use.

Won't bite on the why of it all, but is this http://www.devart.com/dotconnect/postgresql/ what you're after? We use the DevArt drivers (their Oracle drivers anyway) at work and they're pretty good. They have solid tech support (helpful and quick to respond) and they seem to write quality stuff. I'd assume their PG drivers are just as good. However, this stuff isn't cheap. You pay per dev license and it's like a few hundred bucks per dev. I use Npgsql for my own website (www.kitchenpc.com) and I've had zero problems with these drivers. They're 100% managed code, and they seem to be quick even though I haven't done any in-depth speed comparisons. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
