WANTED: LINQ-to-LightSpeed beta testers

Tagged as LightSpeed

One of the key features of LightSpeed 2.0 will be the inclusion of a LINQ provider for working with LightSpeed entities. LINQ is a great new way of expressing queries that Microsoft have delivered with .Net 3.5 (for more information, read the wikipedia article here). Having said that, writing a LINQ provider is no easy task and because of that we’re looking for people to beta test and really knock it around.

What we want to hear about:

• Any bugs you come across
• Feedback on performance
• Feedback on LINQ samples
• Feedback on the completeness of the implementation
• Anything you feel would be useful :-)

If you’re interested in joining the beta program then send me an email: jd@mindscape.co.nz

Thanks,

– JD

P.S. LightSpeed will be remaining a .Net 2.0 product for the time being – LINQ support is added by referencing an additional assembly in your .Net 3.5 projects.
