Hello,

I am trying to get the old GenEnums TaskPerformer running in 3.0.10.0611.

The old code has this:

string connString = executingGenerator.ProjectDefinition.ConnectionString;

It looks like the ConnectionString property has moved but I can’t seem to find it anywhere.

I tried CreateConnectionStringForDatabase which created a connection string but pointed to the wrong database.

Where did the property go?

Also, is there any documentation for creating TaskPerformers?

Thanks

Rick

Are you using the correct DriverID?

currentProject.CreateConnectionStringKeyNameForDatabase(_executingGenerator.DriverID)

You should check the SDK documentation.

That's exactly what I tried. It's returning a connection string that is pointing to master instead of the correct database.

Also, how can I get the value of TdlEmitTimeDateInOutputFiles? I couldn't find it anywhere.

it is pointing to master instead of the catalog, as the catalog is generated into the query, and you can have multiple catalogs in your project so it's unclear what the 'first' catalog is. 'master' always connects.

If you want to replace 'master' with a catalog name, because your query doesn't have catalog names, do: var databaseMetaData = project.MetaData.GetMetaDataForDriverID(driverID);

databaseMetaData contains all metadata for a given driverid, e.g. the PopulatedCatalogs property which contains all catalogs in the meta-data read from the db.

TdlEmitTimeDateInoutputFiles is a project setting now, so you should obtain it by reading the "TdlEmitTimeDateInOutputFiles" from the project settings: var emitTimedateInOutput = currentProject.GetRealBoolSettingValue("TdlEmitTimeDateInOutputFiles");

Please see the EF / NH / L2S templates for examples, these are all written in .lpt
