.NET Data Provider Research Projects

	Project	Leader(s)	Availability
	.NET EnlistTransaction and TransactionScope Support The IngresConnection's EnlistTransaction( ) method enables the Ingres .NET Data Provider to interface to an explicit transaction programming model using the .NET Transaction class or to an implicit transaction programming model using the .NET TransactionScope class.	Teresa King Dave Thole	Currently Available in http://code.ingres.com/ingres/main/src/. This will be available in Ingres 9.3.
	.NET Exploit Multiple DAS Servers The Multiple Data Access Servers (DAS) Project provided a means to easily start multiple DAS Servers. This project exploits that functionality and provides a mechanism whereby multiple hostnames and ports can be specified in the .NET Connection string.	Dave Thole	Currently Available in http://code.ingres.com/ingres/main/src/. This will be available in Ingres 9.3.
	Ingres Linq Support Linq is an O/R (Object-Relational) mapping tool, with some similarities to Hibernate. Linq is type-safe, queries get compiled into MSIL on the fly, and your C# WHERE clauses are translated into SQL and sent to SQL server for execution. In short, it makes design of data access layers safer and faster. In C# 3.0, linq code looks like this: var q = from p in db.Products where p.ProductName == "Pen" select p.ProductID; This Community Project aims to contribute an Ingres Plugin for the DbLinq project, an alternative implementation of Microsoft Linq.

	Ingres ASP.NET Role and Membership Providers The Ingres ASP.NET Role and Membership providers enable the rich roles and membership functionality introduced with ASP.NET 2.0 to be used with the Ingres RDBMS as the data source.	Oliver Oyston
	OpenROAD Intellisense Editor and Tool Platform This project aims to provide an external script editor for OpenROAD with intellisense style code completion. The code is primarily written in C# and utilises the .NET data provider.	Oliver Oyston
