I want to Automatically Generate Code

Hi Experts. I have a large SQL Server database and I want to automatically generate ASP.NET and AJAX code from the database.

Can I do it using any Free Tool (please tell free ones only)?

I also want that tool to generate C# code only. Any article/whitepaper on the tool is appreciated.

Check this link:

BTW, you were asking for free tools. Iron Speed Designer is not free...

Mitch Wheat 2009-01-15 14:58:05

i.e. that's the tool in that 'article'

Mitch Wheat 2009-01-15 14:58:51

But it says free edition and when i installed it did not ask for license!

There is a free edition but it will "Generates single-database applications up to 30 pages and 15 tables" only. Pricing: http://www.ironspeed.com/products/Pricing.aspx

The poster said it was a 'large' database. That would almost certainly mean more than 15 tables.

Have you looked at MyGeneration?

@Viks's suggestion of ASP.NET Dynamic Data is a good one, though you should check if it is ready for production releases:

Have you looked at Text Template Transformation Toolkit (T4)?

This post has a lot of information on it.

Michael Haren 2009-01-15 13:57:56

Does T4 come with ASP.NET templates?

Mitch Wheat 2009-01-15 23:29:21

I propose using classes from: System.CodeDom namespace, combined with: System.Web.Compilation.BuildProvider class. For a comprehensive tutorial please see: Microsoft .NET CodeDom Technology - Part 1 By Brian J. Korzeniowski
