Requirements
The GenWise Database Provider for Sybase assumes that the ASE ADO.NET Data Provider has been installed in the GAC (see Managing the Global Assembly Cache). Two assemblies need to be registered in the GAC:
 | Sybase.Data.AseClient.dll |
| policy.1.1.Sybase.Data.AseClient.dll |
The GenWise Sybase Provider is not installed by the GenWise installer by default. This is because when the ASE ADO.NET Data Provider is not found an untrappable exception (unmanaged code) results, making the GenWise Studio IDE crash. So please make sure you first install the ASE ADO.NET Data Provider.
When the ASE ADO.NET Data Provider has been installed you can add the GenWise Sybase Database Provider in GenWise Studio. The steps to do this are described in this topic: Installing optional Database Providers.
Connection
The Sybase provider lets you connect to a Sybase database. It uses the ASE ADO.NET Data Provider.
This software needs to be installed before you can use the Sybase provider. Sybase is natively supported by NHibernate.
Once you select the Sybase provider the following connection screen is used to form a connection string.
