New Post: Error launching configuration console on VS2012 + EntLib6 + VS Config Extension

Hi!

Running Windows 7, VS2012 Ultimate, EntLib 6.0.0.0, EnterpriseLibrary Config VS extension v5.0.505.1

I create a new blank Web Application Solution in VS2012
I download Enterprise Library 6 common infrastructure + Data Access Block using nuget
Try to launch the configuration module in VS2012, right clicking the web.config file

error:

_Error launching the configuration console

Could not locate the Enterprise Library binaries required to launch the configuration console. Either use NuGet to add references to the Enterprise Library blocks or set a value for the 'Enterprise Library binaries path' property on the solution to indicate the location of the binaries

New Post: DatabaseFactory.CreateDatabase problem in DAAB 6.0

firedancer — Tue, 21 May 2013 06:38:24 GMT

Hi Randy! :)

I have included the following line in a static constructor in my class:

DatabaseFactory.SetDatabaseProviderFactory(new DatabaseProviderFactory());

... and everything works fine as usual.

Thank You :)

Hugs,
Serena

I was just listing the ways in general on how to invoke stored procedures with optional parameters. My example shows how to to this following the pattern used by accessors.

Of course, there are many ways to get where you want to go. Another way would be to use the Enterprise Library mappers directly:

    DatabaseFactory.SetDatabaseProviderFactory(new DatabaseProviderFactory());

    Database db = DatabaseFactory.CreateDatabase();

    using (DbCommand cmd = db.DbProviderFactory.CreateCommand())
    {
        cmd.CommandText = "REPAIRTICKET_Select";
        cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

        if (repairTicket != null)
        {
            db.AddInParameter(cmd, "@RepairTicket", DbType.String, repairTicket);
        }

        IRowMapper<REPAIRTICKET> mapper = MapBuilder<REPAIRTICKET>.BuildAllProperties();

        using (var reader = db.ExecuteReader(cmd))
        {
            while (reader.Read())
            {
                yield return mapper.MapRow(reader);
            }
        }
    }

I would prefer to use ExecuteReader instead of ExecuteDataSet if you don't actually need a DataSet.

New Post: Distributed Caching using Enterprise Library Caching Application Block W.O. using database

randylevy — Mon, 20 May 2013 15:00:29 GMT

The Caching Application Block has been retired in Enterprise Library 6. Going forward the recommendation for caching in new applications would be, depending on the requirements, to use the .NET 4+ System.Runtime.Caching or Windows Server AppFabric Caching.

Prior to your code sample you say I can "use parameter names and not set the optional parameters". Do you have an example of this? Is it possible or am I misinterpreting your response?

Also, it seems easier for me to just use something like ExecuteDataSet() and get the DataTable that was returned, then use AutoMapper to translate the table into a collection of objects. This is what I have in place now and is preferable to using the accessors thus far. Thanks.

Hi, and thanks for the post.

But what about EF6, Is there any updates for AppFabric Cache Manager for EL6 ?

Thanks
