Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider with SQLite Provider #1675

Closed clive-taylor closed 1 year ago

clive-taylor commented 1 year ago

When entering the connection string for ‘Reverse Engineer’ using ‘SQLite Provider (Simple for EF6 by ErikEJ)’ I receive the following message ‘Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed.’

The ‘Test Connection’ button displays succeeded even if the connection string is empty.

EF Core Power Tools V2.5.1277 EF Core V6.0.5 SQLite V3.31.0 VS2022

You should use VS.Data.Sqlite DDEX provider instead, see https://github.com/ErikEJ/EFCorePowerTools/wiki/Reverse-Engineering#choose-data-source

I missed that. Thank you for your help.

I recently clarified the docs so it was easy to miss
