I have installed FirebirdSql.Data. Garmin Vus010r G2 Vision Free. FirebirdClient v4.6.4.0 (from msi) and then DDEX provider 3.0.1 (from msi) to make possible data manipulation via VS. I checked GAC in location C: Windows Microsoft.NET assembly GAC_MSIL FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient v4.0_4.6.4.0__3750abcc3150b00c and there is FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.dll as expected. Unfortunately I am getting an error 'Unable to find the requested.NET Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed' when trying set up new data connection In Server Explorer.

Aug 14, 2008. I just spent a frustrating few hours trying to install the Firebird.Net Data Provider into Visual Studio. Installing the data access components itself is not terribly difficult but installing the GUI designer (DDEX) is another matter altogether. I am only going to discuss the installation procedures for 32 bit systems.

I tried installation and uninstalltion providers several times, didn't helped. Here are code from my machine.config files: C: Windows Microsoft.NET Framework v4.0.30319 Config C: Windows Microsoft.NET Framework64 v4.0.30319 Config Any help will be really appreciated.

Visual Studio 2005/2008/2010/2012/2013/2015 DDEX Provider for Firebird ====================================================================== This project is supported by: ----------------------------- Sean Leyne (Broadview Software) The DDEX Provider for Firebird provides integration of FirebirdClient into Visual Studio. In order to use Firebird Client in Visual Studio, you have to perform these steps.

Preinstallation steps. ------------------------- Copy files from this archive to some place (must be accessible for VS). Install FirebirdClient into the GAC. --------------------------------------- You can use gacutil utility to do this or to check whether it's correctly installed. The gacutil show you also the signature for assembly, that will be used later.

Modify machine.config file. ------------------------------ Modify it like this (for 64bit systems you have to edit '32bit version' of this file, because Visual Studio is 32bit, but there's no problem with editing the '64bit version' too):.. And substitute (these informations you can find using gacutil): -%Version% with the version of the provider assembly that you have in the GAC. Note: Notice, that in configSections there isn't signature of FirebirdClient but the signature of assembly from framework. Import registry file. ------------------------ There's a couple of *.reg files in installation. There are files for 32bit and for 64bit system, so select appropriate version for your system.
