Additional Templates

On this page you can find a list of additional RapTier templates created by our team and RapTier users like you.

Note: You need to have RapTier installed on your computer.

To install a template, unzip it into the RapTier templates folder (<RapTierRootFolder>/Templates 1.4.1). After this the file structure will look in the following way:

[RapTierRoot] Folder
     Templates 1.4.1 Folder
         [NewTemplateName] Folder

The next time you run RapTier, you will be able to choose the new template from the template group combo box.

[New] VB.NET Smart Editors Template              [ VB.NET ]
Author: Peter Solberg
This template is a VB.NET port of the C# Smart Editors Template originally created by JeffLit. For more details see the description of the C# Smart Editors Template.

Data Access Application Block Template              [C#]
Author: Richard Quinn, www.Richard-Quinn.com
This template generates C# code that uses Microsoft Data Access Application Block to access data. See the "ReadMe" file for more information.

Ingtes Template              [C#]
Author: Dominik Fretz, Ingtes AG, www.Ingtes.com
This template is based on the standard RapTier 1.3.0 template. It generates the code that allows getting objects that represent the parent table rows directly from the child row objects.

WebForm UI [Now included in RapTier]
This template generates the standard DB-tier C# or VB.NET code, a WinForm UI plus a WebForm (ASP.NET) UI. The generated application allows to browse, insert, delete, sort, and update records in the database.

DB Doc [Now included in RapTier Enterprise]
This template generates database documentation in HTML format. Using a browser you can navigate through the database documentation, which is laid out in an easy to read and logical way.

The improved version of the template is now built in RapTier Enterprise. The current version has the following new features and improvements:
  • The following new DB objects are included in the documentation: stored procedures, indexes, defaults, descriptions, auto-increments, etc
  • Added SQL code for stored procedures and views
  • Added support for database user types
  • Improved support for non-IE browsers
  • Added dynamic JavaScript-based database tree for easy navigation
  • Generated code satisfies the MSDN standard
  • Added the generation of the MS Help 2.0 project files and indexes for integration with VS.NET documentation

Live Example

WinForm UI [Now included in RapTier]
This template generates both the standard DB-tier C# code and WinForm user interface, which allows browsing data in the database. You can either use the generated application as-is or as a starting point for creating your own multi-tier application.

SQL IDENTITY [Now included in RapTier]
This template generates code similar to the one generated by the default template. The difference is that the Insert method generated by the new template initializes the identity field of the inserting row object by retrieving the @@IDENTITY system variable immediately after the INSERT SQL statement. Note that the code generated by this template can be used only with databases that support the @@IDENTITY system variable (MS SQL Server, Sybase ASE).

Note: The additional templates are provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. Neither SharpPower nor the authors accept any liability for any errors or damages.
