EdmGen problems

Post by HintonBR » Tue 30 Dec 2008 19:52

I am trying to run EdmGen to create my model off of an Oracle DB and have tried it on several different Oracle Databases and I get the same error no matter what DB I try it on.

error 6003: An error occurred while executing the command definition. See the inner exception for details.
ORA-00936: missing expression


I would expect to be able to use EdmGen with the DevArt provider - any ideas?

EdmGen tool is obsolete now, use the Visual Studio integration.
Add a new ADO.NET Entity Data Model to your project, choose the Generate from database option.
Then add a new connection and choose Oracle database in the list.

Andrey - I know that I can use the Visual Studio integration, but there are some cases where I don't want to and I want to be able to use EdmGen - EdmGen is not obsolete as it can still be used (and is used) for other database platforms. Are you saying that the DevArt provider no longer supports using EdmGen?

Sorry, Bryan. I did not mean we did not support EDMGen.
Please send us a generated SQL. For example, you can execute the following query:
SELECT SQL_TEXT, V.* FROM V$SESSION V, V$SQL S WHERE S.SQL_ID = V.PREV_SQL_ID AND PROGRAM = 'devenv.exe';
You should connect as SYSDBA to execute this query.

The EDMGen problem was solved and the fix will be included in the next build.
