.NET – Recommend a good DB4O viewer

I’m playing db4o, I have Visual Studio Object Manager viewer. It seems okay, but it doesn’t fully conform to tools such as HeidiSQL/SQL Studio/etc, let alone it locks up db4o file – I cannot use my db4o application and object manager at the same time.

Maybe I used it wrong, but no matter what else I want to know. Which tools would you recommend to view And manipulate db4o files?

Update: I have been using LINQPad. There are some yak shaving involved, but it works quite well. There is still a lot of demand in terms of features available in applications such as HeidiSQL/SQL Studio/etc, But this is a start.

I suggest you use LINQPad as the first startup.

Gamlor has a great tutorial on how to use LINQPad with db4o. You need to modify it so that you can use client-server access (so not locking your database).

Me I don’t want to republish his code here because I think it is meaningless. He is also a user here and does not want to win his honor.

For me, LINQPad seems to be the best way. It’s also because I can use it on my server, and I have trouble in OME for obvious reasons.
