Hi everybody,

I've about a year and a half working with EDB and Delphi and things are going great.

Now, I need to develop an web front end to my EDB database and my framework of choice for web development is ASP.NET. So I download the EDB .Net provider trail to check it out and everything is working as expected. However I still got a couple of questions, I hope somebody could answer.

1.My test machine is setup with Visual Studio 2010, but final development would be done on Visual Studio 2013  hopefully (Don't have the resource to upgrade just yet...).  Does the EDB .Net provider works with the latest version of .net framework?

2.Does anybody has successfully done ASP.NET development with EDB, how was your experience? Is .Net provider a better approach that plain old ODBC?

3.Is there any special voodoo required for session management on ASP.NET or should I just use it as any other C/S database engine?

Thanks for your help!

Regards,
Mario

1. I have not used this with a Windows .NET application.  But I have used
the ODBC driver in VS 2013 with a target framework of .NET 4.5.

2. I don't have very much experience with it yet, but I have downloaded the
trial of the .NET ODBC and built a sample ASP.NET web page in VS 2013 and
pulled in an EDB dataset to a grid.  It was fairly simple after following
all the steps in a tutorial book that was showing me how to hook up to a SQL
Server database.  I just substituted the database driver.

3. Not sure, but I believe it's the same as any other EDB database
connection.
