sqlserver 2008 support
« on: January 06, 2012, 07:43:59 am »
I've been using EA 7.5 and 8.0 for a couple of years. Recently, one of our teams updated to sqlserver 2008. Searching in EA's DBMS options, I can't find 2008 as a supported version.

Which version of EA ships with sqlserver 2008 support?

Thanks,
Bill S.

SQL Server 2008 repository is supported...
http://www.sparxsystems.com/resources/corporate/index.html#sql_scripts

NB: The update patch is only for existing repositories created prior to 10 Feb 2010.

I guess I should have been more clear.

We need to connect to a SQLServer 2008 instance to reverse engineer from database schema to UML data model.

Thanks,

Supported - use SQL Native Client for the ODBC driver.

I followed the instructions here: http://alensiljak.blogspot.com/2011/02/import-ddl-types-for-sql-server-2008.html in order to import the SQL Server 2008 DDL. Tested and verified.
