Simplifies Data Modeling and Programming for Windows Forms Applications
ComponentOne ADO.NET DataExtender™ simplifies working with ADO.NET, providing additional rich data views in the native ADO.NET datasets. ADO.NET DataExtender mediates with ADO.NET, automating reading the schema and data from the database, exposing database tables and views as regular ADO.NET objects, and providing an ability to set up customized data views.
ADO.NET DataExtender leverages ADO.NET features introduced with .NET 2.0, such as the ability to create entire datasets based on information contained in the database schema, including not only the data but also relations and constraints. In contrast to native ADO.NET, ADO.NET DataExtender allows you to reuse a single typed DataSet class that represents the whole database schema, with turned on constraints (including foreign key constraints), but populated with only a subset of data necessary in a certain application form.
