Hi !

I suppose this is too much to ask simple_smile

Anyway, I've just bought a liscence for LLBLGen Pro and have started using it for a Windows Application and a website. I'm amazed at the power and how simple it is to use compared to standard db access.

But my boss has a requirement that the website should be able to run on Apache/Firebird db on both Windows and Linux.

I've been able to get the ASP.net 2 pages powered by LLBLGen Pro to run on Apache for Windows. I saw an earlier post that it's possible to get LLBLGen Pro to run on Mono.

But is it possible to get LLBLGen Pro to run on Mono for Linux ?

If not, then I'll make a special version of the asp.net pages using Firebird provider.

TIA Best wishes Kai Bohli Norway

The latest verisons of LLBLGen support Mono pretty well. Let me know if you run into any issues and I'll see what I can do to help and post that up on the wiki for everyone's benefit!

G'luck!

Thanks guys, highly appreciated. I'll finished the windows version first and see how far I get on Mono/Linux after that. It would be great if this works.

If llblgen works under mono, how do I install it on my ubuntu machine? I thought of copying the files that were installed in my program files map in windows to a directory in linux and then run the exe trough mono. Is this the correct way? Can somebody help me out here!

The .exe is of course not runnable on mono as it relies on winforms. You can run the generated code + runtime lib on mono by following the steps on the wiki.
