hi,
my name is benny! a .net developer for a company using a ibm e-type server using Synergy 6.0 as server DBMS. Since i mention tat i’m a .net developer my platform is .net1.1SDK on WinXP and MS SQL as DBMS. Yes i do have other secondary server tat mirrors (copies) Synergy content into it but still i wanna konw is what u mention in ur article is true; that i can link/integrate Synergy DBMS directly wit .net? as u mentioned about xofdbc to link Synergy, i wanna know where i can download the driver and was it a proprietory driver? thanks
ironclaw,
You have several options for integrating .NET clients to Synergy/DBMS back-ends:
1. The xfODBC driver (available from Synergex) lets you use ODBC to access the database directly.
2. xfNetlink (also available from Synergex) lets you call Synergy/DE code from .NET.
3. You could build a web service in Synergy/DE using the HTTP and XML interfaces and consume the web service as a client.
I have used all three of these approaches with success, but #2 is by far the most robust approach.
