[BDB 11gR2 Beta] Berkeley DB 11gR2 Beta release -- new Beta release [#18297]

[Diego Ibanez Caro]

Hi Dave,

I see your point, but is there any recommendation we can do them regarding a good library they could compile? Cause some of the links in the page are dead. and others points me to prebuilt dlls, so I guess that those are not valid cause we can't link them to sqlite-bdb software.

Best regards,

Diego

  Diego, 

  Thanks for the feedback from ASTI. 

  With regards to Visual Basic .NET, we have not spent a lot of time testing the available open source ADO .NET drivers for SQLite. However, like other aspects of SQLite, it should "just work" if compiled and linked properly with the BDB 11gR2 library. There are many drivers and APIs that are available for SQLite. We can't commit to testing and supporting them all. If we get enough demand from customers, then we can certainly consider adding one to the list of tested/supported APIs, but for the first release of BDB 11gR2, we're focused on the SQLite sqlite3() API, JDBC and ODBC.

  There are several BASIC APIs that work with SQLite listed on http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=SqliteWrappers

  Basically, a user who wants to use one of these APIs should download it, review the build instructions, make sure to build and link the API with the BDB 11gR2 library and try it out. It should work. We'd be very interested in hearing their feedback. We'll try to help if we can, but we can't guarantee that it will work or that we'll have the bandwidth to investigate and resolve any issues that they run into. 

  Any additional thoughts from the BDB SQL support team? Has anyone on the team tried any of these? 

  Regards, 

  Dave

    Hi Dave,

    I was writing you....


    ASTI has already installed the software and they have been able to run the tests. They want to test now the SQLite interface from a  Visual Basic.NET application but they don't know how.

    There is no support for Visual Basic right? They can do C# if I'm not wrong

    Their initial feedback is that they would like to have "quick start guide" to develop applications using the sql interface (for Visual c# in this case)

    Best regards,

    Diego


    P.S: Alert Life Sciences hasn't given any feedback yet

      Good morning, Diego,

      Any updates from Alert Life Sciences and ASTI? Any progress last week? What are their plans for this week, with regards to working with the Beta release? 

      Thanks!

      Dave

          Diego, 

          Thanks for the update. We only have about 3 more weeks until we need to start QA on the final production release candidate. Getting some specific feedback from ASTI and getting Alert started is very important. Can you send me an update next week on how these accounts are doing and any feedback they might have? 

          Thanks!

          Dave

            in the case of ASTI they already have downloaded the previous release but still have no news from them.

            Regarding Alert, we managed to get the technical contact and I'm trying to get in contact with him to help him with the tests and the installation.

            Best regards and thanks for the update,

            Diego
