Hi All,

I want to use llbl to generate the orm for a sql ce 3.5 data base. From reading the docs it looks as though I have to first make the data base in sql server and then replace the connection string with the path to the sql ce 3.5 data base file.

Is that correct?

Is there no way for the code generator to go directly against the ce 3.5 data base?

Thanks,

Fishy

Hi Fishy,

Nope. To be able to use CE Desktop you first has to create a SqlServer project.

Thanks for the reply.

Excuse my ignorance on this but how do I go about doing it. I created my database (is this the same as a sqlserver project?) but I do not know what to type in when I create a new llbl project and it asks for the server name.

Thanks for you help,

Fishy

You have to set the compatibility level to 4 in the config file (See Application configuration through config files in the manual), and specify a proper connection string for the CE desktop db. An example of that is in the manual (Database specific features -> SqlServer specific features -> SqlServer ce desktop support. )
