VCS2010_08_10 – Accessing Data with LINQ to Entities
Having demonstrated basic ADO.NET 2.0 scenarios, we now look at two basic ADO.NET 4.0 Entity Framework scenarios (featuring LINQ to Entities) to access data. Much is NOT explained in this video but provides a high level overview of the need that was addressed in EF and contrast it with the ADO.NET 2.0 connected and disconnected approaches. The video demonstrates using LINQ to Entities against a single table, related tables, using LINQ query syntax and method syntax, using the var keyword and more. Also, shows how to create relationships between tables in a Compact Edition database in Visual Studio’s IDE.
