Devart is glad to present the new version of LinqConnect 4.8 - an enhanced LINQ to SQL compatible ORM solution with extended functionality and support for SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite.
New version of LinqConnect offers you support for .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET Core 2.0. LinqConnect now has .NET Standard compatible assemblies both for .NET Standard 1.3 and .NET Standard 2.0. .NET Standard 2.0 assemblies require .NET Core 2.0 or later or Full .NET Framework 4.6.1 or later. .NET Standard 2.0 compatible assemblies are not included in the product installers and are available only via NuGet packages, as well as .NET Standard 1.3 compatible assemblies.
LinqConnect NuGet packages now include both .NET Standard 1.3 and .NET Standard 2.0 compatible assemblies. The corresponding assemblies are selected automatically, depending on the target framework of your project.
.NET Standard 2.0 compatible assemblies use the same licensing mechanism as .NET Standard 1.3 compatible assemblies. They use either license key files placed to a specific folder (C:\ProgramData\Devart\dotConnect\License\) or license keys provided as a connection string parameter. Note that trial license key files are generated by the trial installers of our product. If you want to try the .NET Standard compatible assemblies of our products, distributed via NuGet packages, you will still need to install the product in order to obtain the trial license key file. You can find more information about technical licensing in the LinqConnect documentation.
Here is the complete list of LinqConnect 4.8.1350 features:
