LINQ Farm: One to Many and Joins(blogs.msdn.com)

submitted by CharlieCalvert(7875) 5 years, 2 months ago

This post is the latest in a series of posts on LINQ. It continues the exploration of LINQ to SQL by showing several intermediate level queries. LINQ to SQL provides developers with access to relational databases from inside a CSharp program. I'm going to show three different queries in this post. The first will demonstrate how to create a simple one-to-many, the second how to create a one-to-many that spans three tables, and the third will show how to create a simple join. read more...

LINQ Farm Connecting to a Database with LINQ to SQL(blogs.msdn.com)

submitted by CharlieCalvert(7875) 5 years, 3 months ago

In this post I will show connectivity to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or SQL Server Express from C# using LINQ. You can use the May 2006 CTP to run the code shown in this post. The May CTP installs on top of Visual Studio 2005. At the time of this writing, the March 2007 Orcas CTP is not yet out, but once it is out, then you should use it, or later versions of Orcas, as the preferred means to run LINQ queries. The screen shots shown in this post are taken from both the May CTP and pre-release versions of Orcas. Except for a few minor details, LINQ will look much the same whether you use the May CTP or an early build of Orcas. read more...

He then outlines the new capabilities that functional programming will bring to developers. read more...
