MySQL Support

QUESTION

What is the extent of support for MySQL databases?

ANSWER

As of .netCHARTING 4.0 and later native MySQL support is included for the .NET 2.0 version of .netCHARTING.  Previously it was only supported by passing a DataSet or any of the following data objects to the DataEngine.Data or Chart.Data Properties.

This approach can still be used.  See the help file dotnetcharting.chm (included with the downloadable bundle) Getting Started > Data Tutorials > Connecting to data for more information on connecting to different databases.  You may also wish to examine the datatable.aspx, dataset.aspx and dataview.aspx feature samples included in the bundle. For more information on MySQL as well as information on how to create the sample database please see the /database/mysql folder readme.txt included in the dotnetcharting bundle.  If this directory is not included, please check to ensure you have a .NET 2.0 .netCHARTING 4.0 or later bundle.
