dotConnect for Oracle WPF app license error

[John Liu]

I've been working with EF6 beta 1 with dotConnect for oracle version 7.7.257.6 for a while. Everything works fine within the PM> environments inside visual studio and another unit tests project (also a class library project). I recently created a WPF application using the identical app.config with the other two projects. It gives me the following errors:

An error occurred while getting provider information from the database. This can be caused by Entity Framework using an incorrect connection string. Check the inner exceptions for details and ensure that the connection string is correct.

Assembly that contains embedded dotConnect for Oracle license cannot be used with this application: Cityworks.DatabaseManger.
Please correct license information

How do I fix the license issue here?
thanks

dotConnect for Oracle allows you to create class libraries that can be used with certain executable files. All these executable files should be enumerated in licenses.config: http://www.devart.com/dotconnect/oracle ... g.html#lib.

dotConnect for Oracle includes License Wizard (Visual Studio > Tools > Oracle > License Information) that helps you configure license information.

Assembly that contains embedded dotConnect for Oracle license cannot be used with this application: Cityworks.DatabaseManger.
Please correct license information

Please add Cityworks.DatabaseManger.exe to licenses.config in your class library project (manually or using License Wizard) and rebuild the project.

That fixed my issue using Tools->Oracle->License Information...
thanks
