We have it basically working in http://msiext.codeplex.com. We built a model around ODBC and specialized it to SQL server. We sort of tested this against oracle - so now you can talk to Oracle databases.
I bet some work remains to be done for making Oracle really happen commercial-grade style, but you're starting months ahead ;) cheers dB. dB. @ dblock.org Moscow|Geneva|Seattle|New York -----Original Message----- From: lesterbangs [mailto:datapa...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2009 2:05 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Accessing Oracle via ODBC Our products run on an Oracle 9i/10g backend; one of the requirements for installation is to verify a particular version of a DB schema on the server. Right now this is accomplished via running "sqlplus.exe @scriptname.sql", logging the output to a file, then parsing the result. In order to make this solution a bit more robust, I'd like to attempt writing a managed custom action to do this, by accessing the server via ODBC. Before I do this, though, I want to make sure this hasn't already been done... The Sql schema is only intended for use with SQL Server, yes? -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Accessing-Oracle-via-ODBC-tp2310636p2310636.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
