Smart rename not works

Dmitry Gokun

After latest update it stopped to work at all. Evry time i'm trying rename column, i'm getting this:

Could not load file or assembly 'LinqBridge, Version=1.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c2b14eb747628076' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Hello,

SQL Prompt uses some LINQ technology, which is not present in .NET 2.0. If you install .NET 3.5, this error will go away. You can also find LinqBridge in the installation folder for SQL Compare or Data Compare, if you have those installed, and copy the DLL to c:\program files (x86)\red gate\sql prompt 5.

I have .NET 3.5 installed.

I've uninstalled latest version and installed previous (5.3.4.1) and it works just fine. So, it must be problem with new version.

Brian Donahue

Yes, it is a problem. The program needs to include this DLL.

Dmitry Gokun

Can you post proper version of LinqBridge here?

Brian Donahue

Maybe you can copy LinqBridge.dll from the older version of prompt, update it, and put LinqBridge.dll back in the new folder after upgrading.

There is no LinqBridge.dll in SQL Prompt 5 folder. I've copied one from "SQL Doc". Seems that helped. Thanks.

I am getting the same error when I use SmartRename. I'm using Sql Prompt 5.3.6.28. I have copied the LinqBridge.dll into the folder as directed. The error persists. Am I to register it? Restart the computer? Any help would be appreciated.

I restarted my machine and it works now. Thanks.
