Hi,
    I've made some changes to Mapper to better support SQL Server, particularly with Unicode text. Does anyone out there use SQL Server that would be willing to test the code on the wip-dcb-issue-16-sql-server branch to make sure nothing breaks?

Thanks,

Derek

Don't you have a Windows machine that you can install SQL Server Express on?

I have one virtual Win2K instance for some legacy software, but looking at the requirements that doesn't seem to be supported.

Even if Derek does have such a machine, he's been doing an awful lot of work on Lift.  Recruiting people from the community to help is encouraged.

I'm pretty much 100% linux at home. I can test any other database (Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc), but SQL Server is the exception :)

Ahhh sorry I didn't see this before - I'm using lift mapper with SQL server at work.

I can test this no worries. Just let me know what I should try ;-)

Cheers, Tim

The ticket is for Unicode text fields, so if you could try having a Lift app schemify a new table and enter some unicode text that should test it.
