ADO.NET 3.0 and LINQ, fundamental changes ahead

Posted: (EET/GMT+2)

 

If you've read this blog lately, you might have noted that I occasionally talk about LINQ, or Language Integrated Query. This is a new feature in the coming C# 3.0 language, which allows the developer to more intuitively access data in different data sources, including SQL databases (RDBMS).

Now, LINQ also requires updated to the ADO.NET framework, and MSDN has an article about this. Recommended reading for all C# developers, and why not Delphi developers as well. Only that Borland/DTG would get that .NET 2.0 support out even. :-)

Finally, happy 4th of July to all US readers!
