Обсуждение: pgsql on a PDA running Microsoft CE
Dear all, I know similar issues have been raised before, but I couldn't find a nice (and clear-cut) answer... I wish to develop an application on a HP iPaq PDA running Windows CE, accessing a Postgres+PostGIS database. What would be the best way doing this? - Can npgsql be compiled for CF? Or; - Should I change the PL for my Postgres database (i.e. PL/SQL) and use a different provider? Or; - Can I use the open source .NET implementation "Mono" on Windows CE? All helpfull suggesions are very much appreciated! Rob

Not doing it? All due respect but PostgreSQL+PostGIS is a very heavy
solution for a very light device ;)

I think you mis-understood...
The think I wish to do is: ACCESSING a Postgres/PostGIS database.
PDAs and Pocket PCs run .NET CF but npgslq Provider doesn't support this platform.
Anybody already considered (or even implemented) the following option?: wrapping npgslq in a .NET Web Service; adding this as a Web Service Reference in the .NET CF application.
Or should I just use a plain ADO.NET interface? Is this possible?
Or would you suggest using JDBC?
Thanks for replyíng y'all!
