From 3rd party tool to integrated functionality in no time. Vanatec OpenAccess is tightly integrated into .NET framework.
With Microsoft .NET framework, you can develop just about anything you can imagine. And Vanatec OpenAccess strives to bring you new ways of data access for your .NET applications, which are simply unimaginable without an industry-strength O/R mapping tool. So we decided to tightly integrate OpenAccess into Microsoft Visual Studio (2003, 2005, 2008).
Using Vanatec OpenAccess is easy in part because you can continue using the same application you already know - Microsoft Visual Studio. And when it comes to data access, simply choose OpenAccess in the Visual Studio menu. Fully integrated into Visual Studio, Vanatec OpenAccess takes action on data access and the database connection and gives you the programming productivity you need to develop cool applications in almost no time.
The Mapping Designer enables live mapping of the objects to tables. Or create objects from existing schema or meet in the middle. Use this editor to specify persistent vs transient, cascading delete, and so on.
Vanatec OpenAccess supports binding of persistent objects to graphic elements in the UI. The Data Form Wizard, shown above, lets you bind persistent objects to DataGrids.
Good to know: Vanatec OpenAccess works with the .NET Intermediate Language (IL), therefore it supports applications written in C#, Managed C++, J#, VB.NET or any other IL-capable programming language.
