I am not sure what the issue is here, but we are having a problem with the dotConnect for MySQL connector. Apparently it is reading a longtext column as a byte[] instead of a string. We use LLBL on top of the connector for our entity generation. Here is the pertinent code which fails:
Code: Select all
public virtual System.String PossibleResponses
{
get { return (System.String)GetValue((int)QuestionsFieldIndex.PossibleResponses, true); }
set { SetValue((int)QuestionsFieldIndex.PossibleResponses, value); }
}
The GetValue call rerturns a byte[] instead of a string and when the cast happens it gives the following exception:
System.InvalidCastException: 'Unable to cast object of type 'System.Byte[]' to type 'System.String'."
We are using dotConnect 8.10 and will be trying to downgrade to 8.98 here shortly.
Thanks for any help that can be provided.
