Hi,
I have recently picked up a legacy silverlight app using Devart for Oracle. I have to migrate to using SQLServer. I am using the Devart for SQLServer libraries, and this is ok for some of the code that doesnt use the Devart Entity Framework, but the problem I have is when a context object tries to generate a List. I get the error message:
SqlServerProviderFactory' does not implement the IServiceProvider
I have see from the devart docs that the Oracle equivalent of the ProviderFactory does inherit IServiceProvider, but the SqlServer version doesn't.
Is this just a configuration problem that I have missed, or do the SqlServer libraries fall short here and I have to implement everything without the Entity Framework?
Thanks for your help.
ServiceProvider interface for SQLServer
Re: ServiceProvider interface for SQLServer
dotConnect for SQL Server doesn't support Entity Framework.
We recommend you to use the following products for working with SQL Server via Entity Framework:
* standard System.Data.SqlClient
* Entity Developer for Entity Framework (it works via System.Data.SqlClient)

Thanks,
That was what I was afraid of. Using the oldest version of standard System.Data.SqlClient requires bumping up a version on another dependent library in the project, which is not supported by silverlight.
I will code it the hard way without the Entity Framework.
