Detta är en mycket efterlängtad version av våra Visual Studio edtioner. Den ger inte bara stöd för SQL Server 2008 utan har också en stor ombyggnad av dess inre struktur för att kunna ge ytterligare efterlängtad funktionalitet.
Kom också ihåg att om du idag har Visual Studio Development Edtion (via MSDN) får du den här editionen helt gratis. Det är bara att ladda ned den ifrån ditt MSDN konto.
Kolla in detta uttrad om funktionalitet som inkluderas:
SQL Server Support
- SQL Server 2008
- All new data types:
- Intrinsic (date, datetime2, datetimeoffset, time)
- Built-in SQL CLR types (geography, geometry, hierarchyid)
- New DML
- Merge, table parameters, …
- All new data types:
- SQL Server Configuration Options
- Server option settings will be verified prior to deployment or set during deployment
Additional 1st Class Object Type Support - Rules, defaults, Asymmetric keys, symmetric keys, certificates, …
- Server option settings will be verified prior to deployment or set during deployment
Projects
- Server Projects
- Server objects and option settings may be implemented in a separate Server Project
- This enables a team to define a standard a configuration for their SQL servers and reference it from their Database Projects
- Partial projects
- Allowing code sharing between projects by including files from a different project, where the code is included as-is from the originating project and the source code control ownership remains with the originating project
- This enables code reuse and single sourcing while having a single deployment unit
- Composite projects
- References to other database projects or .dbschema files that contribute to the same deployment unit.
- This enables the separation of development roles and responsibilities and composition of Databases using multiple projects.
Single sourcing of external artifacts
- SQL-CLR references allow the user to create a reference to a SQL-CLR project or SQL-CLR assembly. This automatically becomes an ASSEMBLY type in the Database Project
Build and Deploy
- The Build process now produces a separate portable schema output that is fed in to a redistributable deployment engine
- A redistributable deployment engine. For example, to implement a setup application that deploys the Database Project.
Refactoring
- Preservation of Intent
- Enables the deployment of refactoring changes as intended by the user (renames are deployed as renames not as drop/add statements for example)
New Refactoring Operations
- Wildcard Expansion
- Move Schema
- Fully Qualify
- Extensibility point which enables the ability to develop and deploy custom refactoring types and targets
Schema Compare
- Now supports comparing Projects, Databases or dbschema files in any combination. For example, Project to Project, which has not been possible until now.
- Object Type Filtering
- Additional ignore filtering options
T-SQL Static Code Analysis
- Including the ability to develop and deploy custom rules
Dependency Viewer
- View the dependency relationship between objects in your schema
Unit testing
- Supports execution with other ADO.NET providers
Data Generation
- Design-time enhancements
- Smaller .dgen file
- Support for undo/redo
- Foreign key replacement
- Separation of population status into new display window
- Runtime enhancements
- By default uses SqlBulkCopy to populate target tables
- Capability to register different outputs for generated data – i.e. generate to Excel or to file so you can use BCP to load
- By registering a custom output we have the capability to execute scripts at different points during data generation (i.e. before start/after completion or before/after a table
Extensibility
- Data Generators
- Statistical Data Distribution
- Test Conditions
- Static Code Analysis Rules
- Refactoring Types
- Refactoring Target
Maybe this is me talking nonsense, but it seems like Google isn't a company run strictly by the top and they seem to be doing quite well.
