Added 2004-11-27Updated 2005-01-03
Add-in for Visual Studio .NET 2003 that generates class methods for calling stored procedures and executing common types of SQL statements.
ADO.NET Express looks similar to Server Explorer. You can add database connections and browse schema objects such as tables and stored procedures. You can right click on a schema object to generate ADO.NET code for this object. For example, you can right-click on a stored procedure and generate a C# method that executes this stored procedure and returns a DataReader. ADO.NET Express has a variety of options for generating code that cover most of the common data access scenarios.
Features include:
- Code generation in C# and VB.NET.
- Support for SQL Server and Oracle.
- Common SQL statements can be generated for tables, foreign keys and views.
- Method is generated with typed parameters that correspond to stored procedure parameters.
- Support for output and input/output parameters for stored procedures.
- Support for transactions.
- Generated code can be used as a template for modification.

Lets you use classic ADODB recordsets as .NET data sources.
With Virtual Data Objects, you can set up a DataGrid to display browsable, editable and sortable data straight from your database. No need for DataAdapters, DataSets, etc.
Records are only loaded from the database as needed so you can browse large databases without the overhead of preloading everything into a Dataset - just like you did with classic ADO.
You can use either untyped recordsets (like classic ADO) or you can define fully typed data access classes to encapsulate access to database fields.

Latest version: 1.0.3910
Added 2004-10-15
Library that allows you to express parameterized SQL and stored procedures as managed code functions in your language of choice (C#, VB.NET, J# and others) using the .NET Framework.
Just as Platform Invoke (P/Invoke) allows you to call unmanaged code APIs in platform libraries (DLLs) by supplying a compatible method definition in managed code, DBMethods allows you to call stored procedures and parameterized SQL in a database by defining a compatible method definition in managed code.
Unlike many products already on the market, DBMethods does not rely on templates or scriptable code generators. Instead, it makes use of the innovative features of the Common Language Runtime (CLR) like metadata, reflection services, custom attributes and dynamic code emission.

Data layer tool for Visual Studio 2005, and SQL Server.
Diamond Binding provides an add-in for Visual Studio 2005 that allows selection of tables from your SQL Server 2000+ database to be available in code following the Active Record pattern. It keeps the definitions of mapped objects synchronised in partial classes (similar to the form designer) with little generated code.
The API provided by the Diamond Binding runtime supports CRUD operations on objects, relationships, complex and simple queries, lazy loading, cascades and more. Diamond Binding supports generics, so all interactions with your data layer occur in a type-safe fashion. Schema changes are then found at compile time, rather than deployment.

Generates the object-oriented database access layer of the application and its database schema from within Visual Studio.
The object model's specification can be defined in code by means of attributed C# interfaces, use of wizards or by means of an UML model. The object model and database schema can be modified using the integrated object model browser. Code changes can be synchronized to the UML model using round-trip engineering.
The generated object model realizes a connection-oriented architecture with a pessimistic locking strategy. It is optimized for data-bound controls. The object-oriented database browser adds additional value to the product.

Set of objects providing wrappers for standard database calls.
DatabaseClient includes two objects:
- DatabaseWrapper: used to create a database connection and make SQL calls to any database using either a query or non-query based call. The wrapper also supports scalar calls. It was designed so that all the database calls incur no more overhead than directly interacting with the standard database provider methods.
- DatabaseHelper: contains a set of static methods to obtain the data you require from your database. The set of methods provide all of the same database interactions as DatabaseWrapper.
Features include:
- Supports SQL Server, Oracle, OLEDB, and ODBC.
- Supports standard database calls (ExecuteQuery, ExecuteNonQuery, ExecuteScalar).
- Returns queried data in a DataSet.
- Ability to define the connection string in the web.config file.
- Separates database interactions from your code.

Library of application blocks designed to assist developers with common enterprise development challenges. Application blocks are a type of guidance, provided as source code that can be used "as is," extended, or modified by developers to use on enterprise development projects.
Application blocks help address the common problems that developers face from one project to the next. They are designed to encapsulate the Microsoft recommended best practices for .NET-based applications. They also address scenarios not directly supported by the underlying class libraries.
Contains the following general purpose application blocks:
- Caching Application Block: incorporate a local cache in applications.
- Cryptography Application Block: incorporate hashing and symmetric encryption in applications.
- Data Access Application Block: incorporate standard database functionality in applications.
- Exception Handling Application Block: developers and policy makers can create a consistent strategy for processing exceptions that occur throughout the architectural layers of enterprise applications.
- Logging Application Block: include standard logging functionality in applications.
- Security Application Block: incorporate authorization and security caching functionality in applications.
- Validation Application Block: allows you to centrally define validation rules using configuration or attributes, and validate data from anywhere in your application, including integration with Windows Forms, ASP.NET and WCF.
- Policy Injection Application Block: provides an approach for separating cross-cutting concerns from business logic using declarative policies that are attached at runtime to methods on your objects.
- Unity: dependency injection container
Also includes:
- The Application Block Software Factory: simplifies the process of building application blocks and providers through guidance automation.
- Visual Studio-integrated configuration editor: edit Enterprise Library configuration files directly within Visual Studio.
Enterprise Library also includes a set of core functions, including configuration, instrumentation, and object builder services. These functions are used by all other application blocks.

The Software Production Machine (SoProMach) is a software generation engine providing a foundation for specialized code and documentation generators. It's a generalized, language-neutral, multiplatform software source code and documentation generator, capable of accepting several input formats, such as XML, CSV, plain text, and Sisendel EF (entity files), a new textual multitier entity design language for describing metadata.
Several SoProMach-based generators are available for different purposes and target platforms: .NET (C#, VB.NET, ASPX), J2EE, J2SE, PHP, SQL, XML, HTML, etc.
Sopromach is made up of two components:
- Sisendel: SImple Software ENtity DEsign Language. It is a high-level, declarative language to design multi-tier entities and consistently generate database, logic, user interface and documentation files from one textual multi-facet definition.
- Tefigel: TExt FIle GEneration Language. This is the generic low-level file generator or templating machine of Sopromach. It also has built-in list processing and XML/HTML parsing capabilities.
SoProMach can be integrated with any IDE providing support for external tool invocation. IDE integration of SoProMach has been tested with: Eclipse 3, Visual Studio 2005 Beta, Visual Basic Express 2005 Beta, JBuilder X, CodeWarrior Development Studio v2.8.
SoProMach is available for the following platforms: Linux 2.4 (or higher) on x86; Mac OS X 10.2 (or higher) on PowerPC; Windows 2000/XP on x86.
