Hi,

I am looking for a reliable alternatives for Visual Studio Typed DataSet
generator.
Do I have options other than VS2005 IDE for generating Typed DataSets?



I know that CodeSmith might the immediate answer, but could you referee me
to a specific and reliable code generator?



Any help would be appreciated,
Alan
 
Thank you for reply.



Of course we have VS.NET related tools such as xsd and also
MSDataSetGenerator.



I was looking for some more features that VS.NET related tools don not
provide. For example VS.NET doesn't generate CRUID stored procedures for
Oracle data sources.

Yes, as I said in my post, CodeSmith is known for this sort of thing. Do you
know any specific reliable template for what I am trying to achieve?

From reading the thread farther, consider something like LLBLGen Pro
(www.llblgen.com). It will gen both the sprocs and the objects. Nice, simple
ORM.

There is a free version, as well (http://www.sd.nl/software/) with fewer
features.

AFAIK CodeSmith comes with a strong typed dataset generator.
Or you can create your own template, of course.
You might also check their "template share" forum.
