4.5 connection string.

Good day,

I tried to open patterns in action 4.5 c# version for the first time however the connection string is empty. How to fix this based on dofactory's configuration?

Regards,

Archie JG.

DbConnection CreateConnection()
        {
            // ** Factory pattern in action

            var connection = factory.CreateConnection();
            connection.ConnectionString = connectionString;
            connection.Open();
            return connection;
        }

For anyone interested., this issue has been resolved. The problem was that the VS Express edition was used which is not supported. The minimum requirement for the .NET Design Pattern Framework 4.5 is VS Professional or better.

BTW: If you don't have access to VS Professional you can download a free 90-day trial version from the Microsoft website.
