Gopas TechEd 2013

Rok se s rokem sešel a máme tu další ročník Gopas TechEd-u. Nejprve doporučuji prostudovat samozřejmě program, protože obsahu je opravdu mraky.

Nakonec doufám, že vás zaujmou i moje přednášky: Visual Studio 2010/2012 tips and tricks (st 10:30 – 11:45), Entity Framework verze 4, 5 a dál (6, …) – co máme, co nás čeká (a nemine) (st 14:15 – 15:30), Async/await – základy základů a chytáky (pá 9:00 – 10:15).

Budu se na vás těšit.

Gopas DevCon 2013 (Praha, Bratislava)

Velmi jednoduše. Středa 23. ledna 2013 v Praze. A repete v Bratislavě čtvrtek 31. 1. 2013. Více info.

Moje přednáška na téma Entity Framework 5, 6 a dále – využijte nové možnosti naplno.

Entity Framework prošel v posledních měsících, možná i letech rychlým vývojem a přinesl mnoho nových, někdy i nečekaných funkcí. Nejen že se jedná o plnohodnotný OR mapper, ale začíná nabízet i mnoho „jemných“ funkcí a funkcí, které doplňují celý vývojový cyklus spojený s databází. Zkusme se na ně společně podívat. Třeba zjistíte, že některé nástroje vůbec nepotřebujete a můžete využít přímo .NET Framework resp. Entity Framework.

Budu se na vás těšit.

ADO.NET provider for Firebird 3.0.1 released

Few weeks ago the 3.0.0 version was released (actually it was during Firebird Conference 2012, during my talk ;) ) and it came with some new features and improvements (hence version 3.0.0). And as it goes, nothing is perfect and few items slipped through testing phase. So that’s th reason why today, I’m happy to announce version 3.0.1 to be released.

You can download it from NuGet or from Firebird SQL site as it gets updated.

This release contains fixes for two regressions introduced in 3.0.0. You can see both in tracker. It’s also my initial step to release these small bugfix releases more often (as discussed in list).

Go grab it, while it’s hot.

ADO.NET provider 3.0.0 for Firebird and DDEX provider 3.0.0 for Firebird released

I’m pleased to announce version 3.0.0 of ADO.NET provider for Firebird and version 3.0.0 of DDEX provider for Firebird. ADO.NET provider 3.0.0 comes with couple of bug fixes and two major improvements.

  1. Changed transaction isolation modes
  2. New installer that updates machine.config

You can read more about the first at DNET-337. Basically now ReadCommitted and ReadUncommited are same. And using (among others) FbTransactionBehavior.RecVersion/isc_tpb_rec_version. That should better match the default behavior a lot of people is expecting.

The new MSI installer now not only installs all the necessary files, but also updates machine.config file and registers the assembly into GAC (you can select not to do it). So after full install, you don’t have to do anything. You’re just ready to go.

The rest of changes can be seen in tracker log for this version.

The DDEX provider 3.0.0 comes with new installer as well. Now when you do the install, the DDEX provider is fully registered into Visual Studio (you can select version(s) during install) and ready to go as well. No need to fiddle with registry or any other files.

Hope you’ll enjoy these improvements.

Firebird Conference 2012

The Firebird Conference 2012 is again going to happen in Luxembourg during October 26-27, 2012. And I’ll be there. So if you have some questions about .NET provider for Firebird catch me.

And I’ll also have two sessions:

  1. What’s new in ADO.NET provider for Firebird
  2. Getting started with Firebird from .NET with ADO.NET provider for Firebird

And I have some interesting stuff in my bag. I think you’ll like it. Either visit my sessions or wait after it’s over. ;)

See you there.
