Unable to add SQLDOM parser reference Visual Studio 2015

Arvind Kumar

Hi there,

I'm trying to make a SQL Parser based Mini DBMS project with my own front end and no databases like Oracle rather files as database.

Now firstly I want to parse input SQL query in tokens then proceed further. For this purpose I wanted to use SQLDOM parser a.k.a. Microsoft.SqlServer.TransactSql.ScriptDom but unable to add it's reference in Visual Studio 2015.

Can anybody tell me how to add it or any other inbuilt library for parsing SQL.

Got it... i was missing to add SQL server feature pack to use Tsql.... functions. That's why wasn't able to add the reference.

It would be great if you can explain what happens when you try to add the reference? I mean are you getting some sort of error or not able to find the reference?

Please mark it as an answer if it addresses the issue.
