With almost bleeding ears I'm currently listening to show #369 of .NET Rocks! , which has Danny Simmons and Stephen Forte as guests. Danny is of course known of his major role in the Entity Framework (EF) design and Forte is one of the Council of Wise...
In the first part of this series I talked about the fact that Linq to LLBLGen Pro is a full implementation of Linq and why it's so important to use a full linq provider instead of a half-baked one. Today, I'll discuss a couple of native LLBLGen Pro features...
Some people asked me what the highlights are of Linq to LLBLGen Pro , which was released this week , as it seems that Linq support is apparently growing on trees these days. In this and some future posts I'll try to sum up some of the characteristic features...
After almost 11 months of design, development, beta testing and adding final polish, it's here: LLBLGen Pro v2.6 ! This version, which is a free upgrade for all our v2.x customers, has a couple of major new features, the biggest of course being the full...

Update: I made a mistake in the first Linq to Sql query. It's not that slow as I previously posted. I didn't filter on country, which made it pull the rows of all 91 customers into memory instead of the 11. Fetching 91 customer rows, 818 order rows and...
(This is part of an on-going series of articles, started here ) Last time I talked about implementing Single. It turned out to be fairly straightforward, but as I explained in the previous episode, it's a weird method and has different behavior related...
(Updated Wednesday 30-jan-2008). It was mentioned that we would implement 'Skip' as well, although we already had a paging method added, TakePage(). After carefull analysis, we decided not to implement Skip for now. The reason is that it can lead to confusing...
