-System.Data.Common
-------------------
+System.Data TODO List
+=====================
+Update this file as needed...
+
+* To get ExecuteReader() in a SqlCommand object to return
+ a SqlDataReader object which can Read() data and get a String or
+ Int32 from the database. Other types can be done later.
+
+ A class (SqlDataReader) that implements IDataReader/IDataRecord
+ only has one row in memory at a time.
+
+In order to do this, we need to compile and edit these classes:
+ SqlDataReader DataTable DataRowCollection DataRow
+ DataColumnCollection DataColumn
+ DataConstraintCollection DataConstraint
+ DataRelationCollection DataRelation
+ DataTableCollection
+ and dependencies...
+
+System.Data.Common classes that need to be implemented:
- implement DataAdapter.cs
- implement DataColumnMapping.cs
- implement DataColumnMappingCollection.cs
- implement DbDataPermissionAttribute.cs
- implement RowUpdatedEventArgs.cs
- implement RowUpdatingEventArgs.cs
+
+The following classes implement InternalDataCollectionBase:
+ * DataRowCollection
+ * DataColumnCollection
+ * DataTableCollection
+ * DataRelationCollection - an abstract class used by DataTable and DataSet
+ * ConstraintCollection
+
+DataTableRelationCollection is an internal class that implements DataRelationCollection
+and is used by DataTable for parent/child relations. Don't know if it will/will not
+be used by DataSet.
+
+Other classes, structs, etc. that are missing:
+ DataRowView
+ DataSysDescriptionAttribute
+ DataViewManager
+ DataViewSetting
+ FillErrorEventArgs
+ MergeFailedEventArgs
+ TypedDataSetGenerator
+
+The additional System.Data.SqlTypes classes need to be implemented:
+ SqlByte
+ SqlDataTime
+ SqlDecimal
+ SqlDouble
+ SqlGuid
+ SqlInt16
+ SqlInt64
+ SqlMoney
+ SqlSingle
+
+* provide a standard scheme for storing
+ connection string data
+
+* allow Execute methods in SqlCommand to
+ call a stored procedure
+
+* Create a script for testing System.Data:
+ - calls script to create
+ a test database named monotestdb
+ - set up nunit for testing System.Data
+ - set up System.Data.Config or some other
+ file to hold connection strings and other
+ configuration settings for the testing System.Data
+ - any other stuff needed...
+
+* get SqlParameter/SqlParameterCollection
+ working so you can:
+ - for queries/commands that have parameters:
+ o input
+ o output
+ o return
+ o input/output
+ - call a stored procedure with parameters
+
+* be able to return a XmlReader from
+ using method ExecuteXmlReader of
+ a SqlCommand object
+
+* get SqlDataAdapter/DataSet working
+
+* Create Library for PInvoking into libgda
+ This will be used by System.Data.OleDb classes
+
+* Begin System.Data.OleDb classes:
+ - OleDbConnection
+ - OleDbCommand
+ - OleDbTransaction
+
+* Do more of the OleDb classes to
+ retrieve a OleDbDataReader object
+ from a query (SELECT FROM):
+ - OleDbDataReader
+ - others...
+
+* Do more OleDb classes for DataSet:
+ - OleDbDataAdapter
+ - others...
+
+* Security Audit of System.Data
+
+* Create a MySQL ADO.NET Provider
+
+* Create an Oracle ADO.NET Provider
+
+* Create an Interbase ADO.NET Provider
+
+* Create a Sybase ADO.NET Provider (TDS?)
+
+* Create an IBM UDB DB2 ADO.NET Provider
+
+* Create other ADO.NET providers...
+
+Integration
+===========
+
+* get System.Data to work with ASP.NET's
+ System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGrid
+
+* get System.Data to work with GUI
+ System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid
+
