The current version of the Provider Manager supports the following underlying providers:
You can determine which one of these your are using by examining the prefix used for variable declarations.
| Provider | Version | Prefix |
|---|---|---|
| Mimer Provider Manager | 1.2.3.1 | Mpm |
| Microsoft's Oracle provider | 1.0.5000.0 | MsOracle |
| Mimer Data Provider | 9.2.0.2 | Mimer |
| ODBC Provider | 1.0.5000.0 | Odbc |
| Ole Db Provider | 1.0.5000.0 | OleDb |
| Oracle's native provider | 9.2.0.2102 | Oracle9 |
| SQL Server | 1.0.5000.0 | Sql |
For example, the ADO.NET command object would be called MpmCommand, OracleCommand, MimerCommand, OdbcCommand, OleDbCommand, OracleCommand, or SqlCommand. Of course, you may be using yet another provider that uses other letters to prefix the different ADO.NET objects.
