Microsoft LINQ Books

In the last days has been released the beta version of Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1, including a refresh build of ADO.NET Entity Framework and LINQ to Entities. Here you can find what's new in this build. And here you can find the breaking changes. These changes will affect also the samples and content of our new book, based on the previous build of ADO.NET Entity Framework and LINQ to Entities.

Starting from today we've updated the LINQ Books Web Site (http://www.programminglinq.com/) in order to support the new "Programming Microsoft LINQ" book that is publicly available since today (May 14th 2008).

In the download area you can find the whole set of code samples, while on Amazon you can order the physical book.

We hope you will appreciate our efforts to write a useful and complete (as much as we could) book about LINQ and its related technologies.

Today have been published the new June CTP refresh of .NET Framework 3.5 and ADO.NET Entity Framework. Many new features and changes are available in this last CTPs, in particular in the fields of ADO.NET EF.
