What's Missing in the TableAdapter?Not everyone likes the new Visual Studio 2005 TableAdapter class. According to Sahil Malik[3] (to paraphrase a recent newsgroup exchange)...
He goes on to list several other points, but you get the idea. Part of the problem is that the TableAdapter and Data Source interface is new and not fully understood or appreciated. That said, just because it's new does not make it "improved" or suitable for anything. This problem is exacerbated by hiding the old tools, which just confuses customers and encourages (forces) them to use the new toolsregardless of how well they address the problem at hand. No, I think the jury is still out on the TableAdapterand they aren't wearing smiles. |
