MUMPS.NET data provider

[Paul]

Hi,

For anyone interested in getting a .NET application connected to a
MUMPS DB - you might be interested in a small blog that I've written
entitled MUMPS.NET for Dummies, http://wp.me/p2Q6Yg-2q.

Thanks,
Paul.

It's ported to VISTA by yours truly over here:

I have never toyed with the MsmDataProvider so this was interesting. Where did you source the msmapi32.dll and msmdataprovider.dll?

Also caution the msmapi32.dll file - some of us may have a reference in "C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033" this is for MS Outlook and not MSM.

I'd also recommend the Cache Managed Provider. You can do things like...

Person p = new Person();

p.Name = "Paul";

p.save(); // saves it in a M global*

*optionally you can specify where to store the global data using what InterSystems calls "storage definitions." ; so to connect other dots - if you map FileMan to storage definitions this is how Cache provides a SQL interface into VistA

Hi Kekoa,

 

I wrote the MSMDataProvider C# code - if you would like to take a look at the MSMDataProvider code - I'll make the code available on GitHub.
The MsmDataAdaptor class overrides the Fill method in IDbDataAdapter interface.
The Fill method is the only method that I override, since it’s enough to get things working.
I don't have the source code for the msmapi32.dll - this is a Micronetics (MSM) DLL - something that Intersystems decided to support in Cache after the acquired MSM.

Thanks,
Paul.
