Hi, Your model designer has a very good "Update Database" feature, which make life more easier for developing, though there is limitation in current version, i.e. inheritance handling, but I like it very much. I suggest to provide similar function in programming, then developer can use a few lines of code to create/update schema in existing database. It might not be a must have feature, but it will be very very nice to have. Actually I'm evaluating DevExpress XPO before find LightSpeed, so I obviously make some comparisions. XPO can create schemas automatically on the fly, it's very helperful if we start from classes. I feel LightSpeed is Active and Open, unlike XPO, which seems no major update and no visible future plan. Thanks |

Hi Wicky, Thanks for the feedback - we have plans to enhance the database updating functionality in a manner like you describe in a future version (after 2.1 unfortunately) but it is good to know that people would find this type of enhancement useful. Any other comparisons or feature requests are appreciated even if we cannot action them right away. Kind regards, John-Daniel Trask |
