Entity Framework Samples translated to Visual Basic
My company has been working with Jim Wooley, one of the co-authors of "LINQ in Action", to translate code samples on MSDN to Visual Basic. The first fruits of this labor are the Entity Framework samples listed below. I hope this is good news for VB developers that have stuggled with the fact that the samples were only available in C# previously. Check out the main page on MSDN here: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/adonetefx.
Here are the detailed links with more on the way soon:
- Entity Framework Query Samples Compatible with .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (Visual Basic and C# versions available)
The Entity Framework Query Samples is a small Windows Forms program that contains several basic Entity SQL and LINQ to Entities queries against that NorthwindEF Entity Data Model (based on a modified version of Northwind). Its goal is to help you learn the features of the two query languages supported by EF and visualize how the results and the translated store query look like. - Entity Framework Lazy Loading Compatible with .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (Visual Basic and C# versions available)
This sample shows how to use code generation to add support for transparent lazy loading to Entity Framework. It includes code generator (EFLazyClassGen), supporting library (Microsoft.Data.EFLazyLoading) and sample test applications. - Persistence Ignorance (POCO) Adapter for Entity Framework V1 Compatible with .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (Visual Basic and C# versions available)
EF POCO Adapter enables Plain Old CLR Objects (POCOs) to be tracked using released version of Entity Framework V1 using automatically generated adapter objects. It consist of a code generator, supporting library and a test suite and examples. - EF Extensions Compatible with .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (Visual Basic and C# versions available)
The ADO.NET Entity Framework Extensions library includes utilities that make querying stored procedures, creating typed results from DB data readers and state tracking external data much easier in the Entity Framework. A sample application demonstrates several patterns using these utilities, including stored procedures with multiple result sets, materialization of CLR types, and registering entities in the Entity Framework state manager. - ADO.NET Data Services IUpdateable implementation for Linq to Sql
