Hi,
We just released Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2019 version 19.3.2:
Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2019 VSIX Installer (0 Bytes)This release primarily adds support for ODP.NET Unmanaged with Visual Studio 2019 designers that generate code, such as EF Designer/Table Adapter wizard etc. Now, if you connect in Server Explorer with ODP.NET Unmanaged, the code that is generated will use ODP.NET Unmanaged.
A few comments about this release:
- In the past we had Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) installs for ODT with ODP.NET Unmanaged. This release is the first release that instead uses a VSIX. The ODP.NET unmanaged included in this VSIX is used by ODT to generate code and is not designed to be easy for end users to use, so you may still want to separately install ODP.NET unmanaged 19.3 for use by your project (eg: https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/dotnet-odacdeploy-downloads.html )
- If you are using ODP.NET Managed, we modified the connection strings in auto generated code to use the new TNS_ADMIN and WALLET_LOCATION connection string attributes. These attributes are only supported in ODP.NET Managed version 19.10 or later. So you will need to upgrade ODP.NET Managed in your project if you are using designers to auto generate code.
