I just downloaded SQLite version "SQLite-1.0.66.0-setup". The EF designer works as expected on Visual Studio 2010. Well Done TEAM! you guys Rule!
Thanks and I will try to give as much back as I can. Amazing product. Best there is for a startup by FAR!
Enjoy!
Update June 19 2011 : As mentioned in the comment below SQLite for .NET now has a home sqlite.org ! : http://system.data.sqlite.org/index.html/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki
You can download the latest version from here : http://system.data.sqlite.org/index.html/doc/trunk/www/downloads.wiki
Update June 28 2011 : As mentioned by John below the Designer support with the latest version is not available as of yet. You are free to use the old version of system.data.sqlite that comes with designer support for VS2010.

I just downloaded it and I am unable to make it work. There is no option to select a Sqlite data file as in VS2008. Could you post a little more information?
ReplyDeleteI just went to server explorer -> (right click) Add connection -> Selected "SQLite Database File" -> Click Ok -> Click "Browse" and select the database file.
ReplyDeleteAre you sure you have the latest version of SQLite for .NET ?
Mine was : "SQLite-1.0.66.0-setup.exe"
Yes, I am using 1.0.66. When I select "SQLite Database File" I don't get the opportunity to point to a database file. I get a dialog that asks me for a connection string. I have not been able to come up with a connection string that doesn't give me the error "Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data, version=9.0.0.0, PublicKeyToken=...'The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assemble reference."
ReplyDeleteWhen you get the option of connection string "only" this points to the data tools for Visual Studio were not successfully installed.
ReplyDelete(Same as pointed out in Errors Section here : http://basaratali.blogspot.com/2010/02/setting-up-firebird-development-with-vs.html)
Did you use the MSI Installer? (SQLite-1.0.66.0-setup.exe)
Issue: Unable to Create a SQLite Data Connection with VS 2010
ReplyDeleteAt some point while installing "SQLite-1.0.66.0-setup.exe", I was given the option to install for VS 2010 and/or VS 2008. I chose VS 2010 only. I finally decided to uninstall and reinstall, selecting both VS 2008 & VS 2010. That fixed it.
Thanks for posting the solution. Appreciated :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome guys nice info
ReplyDelete@Basarath thank you for the info
i would appreciate if you can tell me how to handle Foriegn Keys
If I make a sample i'll post it. A bit busy with work and learning new stuff right now. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteI'm having the same problem as anonymous (When I select "SQLite Database File" I don't get the opportunity to point to a database file. I get a dialog that asks me for a connection string. I have not been able to come up with a connection string that doesn't give me the error "Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data, version=9.0.0.0, PublicKeyToken=...'The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assemble reference.) in Visual C# 2010 but a reinstall didn't fix it. Do you guys have any ideas?
ReplyDelete@The L : Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling ... this time selecting design time support for *both* VS2008 and VS2010. This might solve it be cause this will install the driver for .NET4 machine.config as well as .NET2-3.5 machine.config
ReplyDeleteI have the same issue, only a connection string available, and uninstall / reinstall checking all visualstudio version doesn't fix it.
DeleteI'm using Express version
Hello!! The version of sqlite in this installer is 3.6.23.1 right? in the sqlite page the amalgamation pack is 3.7.6.1, so how can I update it if I allready have the MSI installed??

Thanks for your help :)
@anonymous you will to recompile code at http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlite-dotnet2/
ReplyDeleteThanks Basarat for your help, and just for the record I found this:
ReplyDeletehttp://system.data.sqlite.org/index.html/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki
and the download page:
http://system.data.sqlite.org/index.html/doc/trunk/www/downloads.wiki
So you can install the last version (3.7.6.3 now) to your proyects, I think this is great!
I just downloaded the latest version, which is http://system.data.sqlite.org/sqlite-dotnet-x86-1007300.exe, and there is no choice where you can select VS2010 support. It doesn't work with VS2010 either.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't work for me in version 10.0.73.0 either, and the reason is explained in the readme.htm, where the section about VS2010 support says "Currently not included. We are still updating the Design-Time support installer."
ReplyDelete@John I tried it on my computer which already had the old version installed .... my bad.
