Tuesday Presentation: Deeper in LINQ
August 13th, 2007Tuesday night I will be presenting Deeper in LINQ for the Wisconsin .NET User Group. Below is the summary for the presentation.
Brennan Stehling will continue covering LINQ following Dave Bost's presentation earlier this year. This presentation will dig into more detail about querying databases, XML and collections of objects. The presentation will compare the performance of LINQ and ADO.NET queries and show the advantages of LINQ over conventional ADO.NET programming. The presentation will also look into databinding LINQ results to web forms in ASP.NET using the new LinqDataSource.
Since the presentation in January there have been some changes to LINQ. You can now get the Beta 2 release of the .NET 3.5 runtime and Visual Studio 2008. I will be doing a short review of the updated IDE before getting into the LINQ samples I have prepared. The presentation should answer all of your questions about LINQ and help you start using it right away.
