The ADO.NET Providers team wants to hear your opinion

  • Article

This is the time when we, the ADO.NET Providers team, take a step back, review our goals for the next release and identify areas for investments.
We view YOU as a key stakeholder in this process and would like to gather your inputs in this survey, which should take no more than 10 - 15 minutes. The answers you provide will give us the background for some of the key decisions that will benefit our database community - developers, DBAs and everybody who use SQL Server or are looking for ways to expand its scope.

This survey will be valid until November 13, 2009 and can be found at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=DJv_2brczgTusUJkolYrczAQ_3d_3d.

Thank you in advance,
Luiz Santos
Senior Program Manager
SQL Connectivity

    Wow, that survey needs some work:

  • Spell "asynchronous" correctly.

  • How did you miss "programmer" or "developer" as a "primary role"?

  • #2 - That's really awkward wording.  Did you mean "What is the primary business activity performed where you work?"  If not, then what location did you mean?

  • #4 - Could you be more specific?

  • #6 - I think you mean DbCommand vs SqlCommand and the like, but I'm not certain.  How about an example?

  • #7 - I can't believe you expect me to rate all of these in order from 1 to 15, including the ones I don't care about (or don't know what they are).  Why can't you just include a simple 1-to-5 scale of importance, and let me mark all the ones I care about with 1? I didn't get any further than #7 because I didn't care to mark all 15 in order.

    The Survery page where it has the 15 questions with different columns for every question, this one has a bug you can't select the same answer in the same column, fo example try selecting answer 1 for both questions 1 & 2

    I have to agree with previous posters: This survey is not quality stuff.

    Mohamed: It is a rating form where you choose the rank of each item relative to other items.  Two items cannot be equally ranked in overall importance.

    I'm having trouble with deleting entities. Somehow there are duplicate objects, normal objects and dynamic proxies which are duplicates and ruin my whole solution. This is the 10th thing which has gone horribly wrong with using the entity framework. My suggestion for the entity framework is to raise the usability of it. Everytime I use it something horrible goes wrong and the documentation doesn't help. The code doesn't tell me anything because ConcurrencyException without an innerexception isn't helpful at all. It's the first .NET product which made me feel so incredibly stupid and blames me for everything instead of helping me get it the way it should be able to somehow work.
