Re: [Firebird-net-provider] Problem with setup in VS 2015

[Paul D. <pau...@ut...>]

Hi,

I was able to get Firebird to show up in the provider list by copying an 
<entityframework> setting to my app.config file. I found that setting 
somewhere on the web. But that didn't wok either. Whenever I type 
anything into an input field, the dialog disappears. Very frustrating.
