Hello,

I intend to use SQL Packager to package Database creation and upgrades and had a couple of questions regarding the generated C# project since we will want more control on editing the SQL statements on the solution.
    Why are the SQL statements packed in resource files? Do you have a method or tried before to use plain text instead?
Thanks for your help.

  • The recourse files contain the sql scripts. If you cannot read the contents it is because you have chosen to compress the package.

    If you wish to edit the project / scripts before creating the executable you cannot use the "with compression" option.

  • Thanks Daniel I'm aware that the resource files contain the SQL scripts and they seem to be sepparated by the GO statements. I wanted to know if you have functionality to bypass the resource files and use plain text files for the scripts instead
  • Hi

    Unfortunately not. You cannot point Packager at an external text file.
