Linq to Oracle - XMLType

Don't you support the sys.xmltype type for oracle??

I get an error because I have a field in a table of this kind (on InsertOnSubmit).

I also get the same error when I use Long Raw on Oracle.

Could you fix this? I have to know if this will be supported in order to suggest this solution to my company.

Best Regards,

The XMLTYPE type support will be implemented in the next build of dotConnect for Oracle. As a workaround, please change its data type from XMLTYPE to VARCHAR (either in the *.lqml file - the DbType attribute of the corresponding column tag or in Entity Developer for dotConnect - select the needed column, press F4 and change the Server Data Type property).

The LONG RAW type is supported now. But there is a bug with its description. Please change it manually from LONGRAW to LONG RAW (put the space character between the two words) either in the *.lqml file or in Entity Developer. We will fix it too.

Great.

Yes I will do such work around, for now.

Nice to hear that it will be implemented.

Thanks.
