LINQ stands for .NET Language INtegrated Query and in a nutshell, it makes query and set operations, like SQL statements first class citizens in .NET languages like C# and VB. Find out about the general-purpose query facilities added to the .NET 2.0 Framework that apply to all sources of information, not just relational or XML data.
After two decades, the industry has reached a stable point in the evolution of object-oriented (OO) programming technologies. Programmers now take for granted features like classes, objects, and methods. In looking at the current and next generation of technologies, it has become apparent that the next big challenge in programming technology is to reduce the complexity of accessing and integrating information that is not natively defined using OO technology. The two most common sources of non-OO information are relational databases and XML.
Rather than add relational or XML-specific features to our programming languages and runtime, with the LINQ project we have taken a more general approach and are adding general purpose query facilities to the .NET Framework that apply to all sources of information, not just relational or XML data.
In this session, Joe Mayo, will show you how LINQ works and makes data access more intuitive than the ADO.NET code you use today. You'll also learn about two LINQ extensions, DLINQ and XLINQ, that allow you to query SQL and XML data respectively.
Some say that seeing is believing. There are three videos on Channel 9 that discuss LINQ.
Anders Hejlsberg and Dan Fernandez discuss LINQ and C#.
Paul Vick and Amanda Silver discuss the future of VB.
Paul Vick and Erik Meijer discuss dynamic programming.

Monthly Presentation for June |
|
Date: Tuesday, June 27th |

Session abstract: Steve will be diving into the uses of CodeSmith code generation for all of your automated development tasks. Why write code that your computer can write for you? We'll go over the advantages and techniques for implementing code generation and give examples ranging from class files to data layers to full blown web and windows interfaces, oh and don't forget about the automated creation of nUnit tests. Does it get better than this? |
Steve Dzilvelis Presents CodeSmith, Roman Garilov Presents .NET Mock |
