NHibernate with informix database "IBM IDS"

Question

Hi All,

which NHibernate driver can i use with informix database "IBM Informix Dynamic Server" ?

Thanks,

Amjad.

Answer 1

NHibernate 2.1 supports the use of InformixDialect. I don't know if it will work with the IBM Informix Dynamic Server driver though.

Answer 2

NHibernate 2.1.2 supports Informix driver and dialects but you must use the "IBM Data Server Provider". The problem with the CSDK (even through v3.5 if I recall correctly) their implementation of IfxConnection doesn't implement IDbConnection. NHibernate needs the generic interface.
