Hello,

I am using Delphi 10.1 Update 2, SQL Server 2016 Express 64bit, UniDac 6.4.16.

I have searched the forum and read that I can use something like:

Code: Select all

UniConnection1.Close();
UniConnection1.DefaultTransaction.IsolationLevel := ilSnapshot;
UniConnection1.Open();

Above code will enable snapshot isolation level *if* database has below option set:

Code: Select all

ALTER DATABASE <db_name> 
SET ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION ON;

I know that I can check if snapshot is enabled using SQL Server Profiler. I should see below line just after connection is established:

Code: Select all

SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SNAPSHOT

Assuming all above set correctly, I should have a snapshot isolation level.

However, this does not work if provider is set to prDirect. Sample project including a small database backup can be found in below link

I appreciate a feedback as to that situation can be reproduced on Devart side, please.

Thanks.

Thank you for the sent sample. We reproduced the described behavior in the Direct mode and are investigating it. We will inform you about the results.

We will fix this behavior. Currently, in order for ISOLATION LEVEL to be set for a transaction in Direct mode, after establishing connection call the StartTransaction method, for example:

Code: Select all

UniConnection1.Close();
UniConnection1.DefaultTransaction.IsolationLevel := ilSnapshot;
UniConnection1.Open();
UniConnection1.StartTransaction;
