Hello Good Evening and welcome to nothing much.

A man who knows it's trade

I've been reading Frans Bouma since it's inception and i tend to take him into high regard.

But this post seems to be a personal tipping point to me. This has convinced me to really try to find some time to evaluate LLBLGen Pro (i have download the evaluation some months ago,but never found time to install it and test it). This post ilustrates some nice capability of LLBLGen extensability hooks, i'm sure the rest of the product is neatly well thought as well.

In a previous life, i hacked LLBLGen code. I needed to generate some triggers and some customed tailed stored procedures, and hacking LLBLGen seemed to be much better than going from scratch. It has quite fast to produce the desired results, and the code was well structured but i distinctly remamber hating the variable naming being used (not that i hold grudges or anything. :-)). The hacked has never used, caused the feature that needed it was abandoned, but that is another story.....

I will just have to find the time, i really must.

mySQL support would be really great though. (what a moaner, haven't even installed it and i'm already complaining).

I purchased LLBLGen Pro right after its release to both understand O/R Mappers as well as a useful code generation tool for my projects.

The quality of LLBLGen Pro speaks for itself. What has impressed me the most about Frans is that not only has he released an excellent product, but that 1) the documentation is awesome, 2) his response to problems and questions is quick and professional, and 3) he releases new features and bug fixes often.

I can't think of a negative point in the whole experience. LLBLGen Pro is just one of those products where I feel I got a really great deal and learned a lot in the process.

Thanks all for the kind words! :)

Tiago, be sure to get the latest demo, as the nice things I blogged about were added recently, so your old demo download might not have them :)
