Update wizard

Post by damon.cognito » Thu 24 Mar 2016 15:10

It works but not completely as far as I can see. My project uses the .6 version of the Devart.Data.PostgreSql.Entity dll but the devart update tool/wizard always replaces this with the .0 (and updates the app.config). It is nothing new, it has always done it - but given the number of projects we have it's now becoming really annoying!

I think the problem is that when the devart update is installed it uninstalls the old version, so in c# (VS2013) the dlls is shown missing with no version. However, when the update wizard finds this (which will be the case most of the time) it should look up the app.config file to check the version used?

Thank you for your report. That is a known issue. We are working on it.

As a workaround, please upgrade the Devart.Data.PostgreSql.Entity reference manually to C:\Program Files (x86)\Devart\dotConnect\PostgreSQL\Entity\EF6\Devart.Data.PostgreSql.Entity.dll (assembly in the EF6 folder instead of the EF5 folder) and update the app.config to set the revision number to 6.

Upgrade Wizard is improved for upgrading projects with the Entity Framework functionality. We will notify you when the corresponding build of dotConnect for PostgreSQL is available for download.
