After more than 50.000 downloads, version 2.4 of my SQL Server Compact Toolbox extension for Visual Studio 2010 is now available for download. This blog post is a visual guide to the new features included in this release.
Edit Table Data (beta)
The tools that are included with Server Explorer for SQL Server Compact 3.5 and 4.0 already include a feature to edit table data, called Show Table Data:
But the grid has some limitations that I have lifted on the new “Edit Table Data” feature:
- Ability to sort data by clicking a column heading
- Ability to Import/Export/Delete content of image columns
- Ability to locate data in a column (QuickSearch)
Split Windows Phone DataContext into multiple files
You can now select to have the Windows Phone DataContext generated as a DataContext class file, and a class file per table in your database.
Select tables to include in Entity Data Model
You can now select which tables to include in the Entity Data Model created from your SQL Server Compact database. (Thanks to the Extended WPF Toolkit Project)
Explore and script primary and foreign keys
The tree view now lists the primary and foreign keys belonging to a table, and it is also possible to script these individually.
