LINQ to Oracle or Entity Framework?
Posted: Thu 03 Dec 2009 13:44
Hi,
I am looking at possibilities to use the ADO.NET Entity Framework to access Oracle databases.
1. I see that there is support for the ADO.NET Entity Framework and there is also the possibility to use LINQ to Oracle.
Is there any guidance on selecting the ADO.NET Entity Framework or LINQ to Oracle?
2. Is there a list of supported and unsupported entity sql canonical functions. E.g. there is documentation for the MS SQL Server provider for the entity framework (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... .100).aspx). This documentation shows how the canonical functions are mapped to SQL Server functions or a SQL Server implementation. Does this documentation exist for the DevArt provider.
3. I understand that the DevArt provider doesn't work with VS2010 Beta 2 (combined with the CTP2 of the entity framework). Is there an indication of when the support for the latest version of the .NET 4.0 framework will be available?
Kind Regards,
Patrick
