[Firebird-net-provider] Entity Framework, Firebird and Guid
Hello, when i create a SQL-Server database with an uniqueidentifier typed field as primary key the entity wizard creates an entity with a System.Guid typed field. Is something like that possible with FirebirdSQL? It would be really usefull if i can have System.Guid as a field in an entity.

Firebird doesn't have direct support for guids. Not native in Firebird but maybe with your Provider. By using smallint_bool in the ssdl i can use boolean in entities which isn't supported too. When i follow your advise from here http://blog.vyvojar.cz/jirka/archive/2007/07/08/guid-in-firebird.aspx and then generate entity classes from the database the wizard creates Entities with Strings. If i try to save something into the Database i get an exception which complains about malformed Guids. Can you suggest a Datatype that's close to the 128 bit of a Guid that i can use in the storage and conceptual model of the edmx? P.S. the combination of firebird with its small footprint and easy installation and the entity framework is really great. beside my small guid problem everything works flawless and rock solid. -- Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects ___ Firebird-net-provider mailing list Firebird-net-provider@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-net-provider
