Does Essential Diagram feature support for database binding?

Essential Diagram has no pre-built support for binding diagram nodes to a database. Any binding layer that is required will have to be implemented at the application level using custom symbols and leveraging the diagram's support for dynamic configuration of the diagram model.

The OrgLayout sample that ships with Essential Diagram shows the creation of an organizational structure diagram based on employee information sourced from a Microsoft Access database using an ADO.NET DataReader. An alternate approach using an XMLDocument for accessing XML-formatted data is also demonstrated.
