[ADMIN] PostgreSQL and VB.net

2007-02-23 Thread Vishal Mailinglist

Hi ,

I have a program already working on LAMP architecture. Now since the
business logic is in PostgreSQL. We were interested  to build the front end
on VB.net. Would like to know the readiness of PostgreSQL working with
VB.net . Would appreciate If anyone can suggest any drivers, website  and
essential reading before I go for coding.

Npgsql is now sufficiently stable for .NET 1.1 and 2.0 (I've personally 
used it with VB.NET and C#.NET.)
I love it, it's a great interface and will be powering a couple of major 
projects I've got coming up over the next couple of years.


Of course there are ODBC drivers too, but I'd advise to go with the a 
native .NET class - and Npgsql should do you nicely!
The developers of Npgsql hang out on [EMAIL PROTECTED] so 
could be worth dropping a question on there.

Well it doesn't really have anything to do with PostgreSQL. As much as
VB and availability of drivers. You can use ODBC or the NPgsql driver.

.Net

Odbc:

psqlODBC
