VB NET 2010 APP CONFIG CONNECTIONSTRINGS INSTALL
In general the ADO.NET provider installation programs also install aĭefinition of the ADO.NET provider's DbProviderFactory in the nfigįile of the. This means that youĭon't need to reference the ADO.NET provider assembly in your generatedĬode.
VB NET 2010 APP CONFIG CONNECTIONSTRINGS PRO
LLBLGen Pro v3 uses the DbProviderFactory system. This assembly can then be referenced from your business logic project and other projects which want to use the generated functionality.

After you have generated the code and checked whether the right references are available in your VS.NET project, you can compile the code into a working assembly. If you're upgrading to a newer version of LLBLGen Pro, it's recommended to check whether your project indeed references the correct runtime libraries, as VS.NET sometimes may point to previous versions if they're still installed on your system. It's highly recommended to use the generated VS.NET projects which should automatically reference the correct assemblies. The generated code references the following assemblies and you should add to your project references to these assemblies if they're not yet present. The references you have to make are identical for VB.NET and C# and are described below. If you decide to construct the project manually, create a new library project andĪdd all the generated classes to that project. This will automatically create a class library for you which you can use immediately. The easiest way to compile the generated code is to load the generated Visual Studio.NET project file(s) into Visual Studio.NET or another IDE which can read theseįiles and compile the project.
VB NET 2010 APP CONFIG CONNECTIONSTRINGS HOW TO
This section describes how to compile the generated code for C# and VB.NET, which references to add and how to use it Hope this helps you to not spend the 5 hours of research and testing it took me to find this solution.Generated code - Compiling the code PrefaceĪfter you've generated code, you of course want to use the code in compiled form so you can reference it from another project and actually
VB NET 2010 APP CONFIG CONNECTIONSTRINGS UPDATE
In order to get ConfigurationManager to show up under System.Configuration you need to add System.Configuration explictily to your references in your project (just imports or using will not give you configuration manager)Īnyway, this will update your settings for your named connection in your reports in memory while in runtime. In VB.Net, this can be done by using the following code:ĭim config = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel.None)ĭim connectionStringsSection = DirectCast(config.GetSection("connectionStrings"), ConnectionStringsSection)ĬonnectionStringsSection.ConnectionStrings("Marketplace").ConnectionString = ADONetĬonfigurationManager.RefreshSection("connectionStrings") Next, if you have a connection string either encrypted (we encrypt our connection password only and read it into memory on login to our application and assign it to a global variable called ADOnet), you will want to set the named connectionstring in memory and have it refresh. It should look something like this (put this right under and I think the casing matters on : exe.config file for the connection string and leave the connection string value BLANK. This will not expose your connection information to end users and allow them to create alternative reports for your canned reports without letting them see the connection password. trdx files as the urisource in the windows forms report viewer and having each customer with their own database being able to run the canned reports that we make for our software.įirst, when you design the report, give the SQL Datasource a Name and check the box to save it in the configuration file (I did this from the Telerik Standalone Report Designer.
I wanted to post this so no one else has to go through what I went through trying to figure out how to dynamically change the connection string when using.
