Our library of code samples provides you with easy-to-follow solutions to common challenges.
Many samples use the NorthwindIB database. This is IdeaBlade's version of the well-known Northwind (and later NorthwindEF) database. You can download it here.
You must enable NuGet Package Restore to build DevForce samples. You can do so by navigating to Tools | Options | Package Manager to open the settings window.
The downloadable samples all rely on the NuGet Package Restore feature to install the necessary DevForce dependencies.
You can see that package restore is enabled for a sample by the presence of the .nuget folder in the solution:
If you open the Package Manager Console you'll also see that NuGet is ready to restore packages in the solution:
You can restore packages in one of two ways:
Alternately, you can download and install the DevForce 2012 "jumpstart" installer from the IdeaBlade download portal.
You will see this error in samples which dynamically download NuGet.exe and also have multiple projects. The error is due to a NuGet problem with concurrent download attempts.
To work around the problem: build the solution again. Once the executable has been downloaded the error will not recur.
