Comments | Share

Today I delivered a session introducing Entity Framework at www.devweek.com. I expanded the session to include a brief overview of the new stuff we should expect (but I don’t guarantee) will ship in .NET Framework 4.0 with Visual Studio 2010.

First up, some useful links:

• Main ADO.NET Entity Framework site including “How To” videos
• Well written overview article
• My previous posts on Entity Framework
• Entity Framework v2 features http://blogs.msdn.com/efdesign/
• ADO.NET team blog including plenty on the framework
• DevArt Entity Developer alternative EDM tool (v2 in Beta) http://devart.com/entitydeveloper/ 
• Entity Framework downloads http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/adonetefx 
• The Entity Framework sample which allows you to play with ESQL and LINQ to Entities http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/EFQuerySamples
• Entity Framework Books

And finally the presentation.The Entity Framework v2 stuff is slides 22 to 34.
