I have two rants.
Start RANT
1. I have been desperately trying to download the CTP version of Enterprise Library and for some reason it keeps on asking me to join the Project. I don't want to join the project just give me the library such that I can get on with it. (BTW if any one has ideas on how I can get my hands on the CTP it would be appreciated).
2. I have been looking around for the ODP.NET (Oracle's data provider) implementation for DAUB (Data Access Application Block) and not been able to find anything. I am sure someone out there has written this. I hate to write the provider and then find out it was already available. Any hints most appreciate :-)
End RANT
CTP of EL can be download without requiring membership from here now: http://www.gotdotnet.com/codegallery/codegallery.aspx?id=295a464a-6072-4e25-94e2-91be63527327

Enterprise Library includes provider for Oracle.
Hi Bob,
ReplyDeleteThe download in your link is for Framework 1.1 version and not 2.0. For the 2.0 version you still need a passport. That aside the Oracle one uses Microsoft provider for DAL and not ODP.NET. Also it has issues with ref cursors and parameters. Thanks for the comment though.
