unable to add xml data source in the Designer when a db adapter is installed

Hi!
I use the Designer.exe application to create reports, each report uses XML or DB data sources (but not both of them in the same report). The problem is when I install the database adapter - in my case Oracle ODP.NET -, I am unable to add XML data sources, the designer always opens the database data source editor. Is there a workaround for my problem or some kind of XML adapter :biggrin: ?

Hello,
We made some improvements in that direction about a several week ago.
Please check the last prerelease build.
Thank you.

The problem is still present in the prelease version from 8th June. I am unable to add XML data source to XML connection when a database adapter is installed.

Hello,
We couldn't reproduce this bug.
Please try to delete settings from c:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Local\Stimulsoft\
Thank you.

Unfortunately it did not help. I have tried with the newest prelease build (2011.07.08), GAC updated, still no luck. Could you please look at it one more time? Thank you.

Hello,
Please clarify, are you trying to remove the settings folder?
Thank you.

Yes, I removed the AppData\Local\Stimulsoft folder (I use Windows 7 Professional 64bit).
I started the Designer, selected the type of the interface (so the user setting were removed successfully).
Then I tried to add a new connection - the designer showed Oracle ODP.NET Connection too, so the database driver was installed correctly. I selected the XML Data and set the XML and XSD paths.
Then I used right mouse button on that XML connection and tried to add a new data source, but the Designer brought up the SQL data source editor. I attached a screenshot of the situation.

Hello,
Please try to run the Service Configurator from the designer or separately. Then run Synchronize in the Edit menu. Then save.
Thank you.
