Updates .NET/MySQL Code Generation Tool (part 2)

We have developed a data access code generation tool called cgen that does object/relational mapping between .NET 2.0 and MySQL. This tool starts with an XML map of the database schema. From the XML, cgen generates a set of .NET 2.0 classes that handle the data access code. This tool is specifically geared to generate C# classes to talk to a MySQL database; we don't use SQL Server at all today. Our tool has been released as open source (see [login to view URL]). Note that the current (unreleased) version of cgen is in our publicly-readable Subversion repository, located at [login to view URL] For this project, you should start with this code, since it's different than what's been released on the web site. Here are the features we'd like to add: * [Generate List Methods for Legacy Compatibility][1] * [Exception handling in XML parsing and code generation][2] * [Support for nullable DateTime types][3] * [Generate GetReader methods][4] * [Make Factory Classes Static][5] * [Support different connection strings for reads and writes][6] * [Support for multiple-field Where clause][7] * [Default values for properties][8] The tasks are described in detail in our Trac system. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
