CompiledQuery in Entity Framework - Gil Fink on .Net

posted by gilfgilf 18 days, 10 hours, 44 minutes ago
Monday, March 01, 2010 6:53:43 AM GMT
There are times when we want to make optimizations on some piece of code. If we want to reduce the cost of executing a query in Entity Framework we can use a CompiledQuery to the rescue. Yesterday I used added a compiled query to a code base which was executing multiple times. This reduced the execution time of the repeating queries. In the post I’ll explain what are CompiledQueries and how to use them. (more)

Data Points - Precompiling LINQ Queries

published 21 days, 17 hours, 8 minutes ago posted by https://me.yahoo.com/mosessaur#7fe0dhttps://me.yahoo.com/mosessaur#7fe0d 22 days, 18 hours, 49 minutes ago

Did you know that by precompiling LINQ queries you might actually be degrading your app’s performance if you’re not careful? Julie Lerman explains how to ensure you’re not re-precompiling queries each time and losing the expected performance benefits across post-backs, short-lived service operations and other code where critical instances are going out of scope.

SQL Server 2008 Data Types and Entity Framework 4 : Don't Be Iffy

Monday, February 15, 2010 1:08:43 PM GMT Sunday, February 14, 2010 8:31:07 PM GMT
Because I’ve had a lot of conversations about spatial data types lately, I thought I would create a SQL Server table that contained one of every type then bring it into an entity data model using the wizard to see what happens. This is in EF4. Here are screenshots of the table and the entity showing their property types. This way you can see what is and isn’t supported. The wizard excluded four fields it still doesn’t recognize at all.geographygeometryhierarchyidsql_variant If you focus on the entit... (more)

Introduction In this article we consider how to build Entity Framework models using PostGIS objects in Entity Developer. PostGIS is a popular spatial extension for PostgreSQL that gives one an opportunity to work with geographic objects. To create and use such models we will: use a .NET wrapper for PostGIS (SharpMap) build a new Entity C# code generation template in order to enable geometry types support write some code dealing with change tracking (more)

Working with transactions in Entity Framework and LINQ to SQL

Entity Framework In this article we consider a short description of the Entity Framework and LINQ to SQL transactional models. There are also some simple code listings illustrating different aspects of the transactional model. A transaction is a series of operations performed as a single unit of work. Entity Framework transactions are a part of its internal architecture. The SaveChanges method operates within a transaction and saves results of the work. It is designed to ensure data integrity.

Meta-Me : Tip 51 – How to load EF metadata from arbitrary streams

Tip 51 – How to load EF metadata from arbitrary streams In Tip 45 I showed you how to build a connection string at runtime, which is pretty nifty. The problem with that was that it relies on having metadata files (.csdl .ssdl and .msl) on local disk. But what if they live on a web-server or something and you don’t even have access to the local file system to copy them locally? Well it turns out you can load the metadata from streams too, and this Tip shows you how.Step 1: Get XmlTextReaders for th... (more)

The last inheritance mapping that I’m going to write about is the Table Per Concrete Type inheritance (TPC). This inheritance type is very rare but you should be aware of how to create it when it is needed. You can read about TPT and TPH from here and from here. (more)

Using Repository Pattern with Entity Framework - Gil Fink on .Net

Saturday, January 23, 2010 11:16:12 AM GMT Wednesday, January 20, 2010 11:40:19 AM GMT
One of the tools for reaching for persistence ignorance is to build a facade between the data access layer and your business logic. Such facade will prevent the knowledge of how the data access is working and with which technology. That abstraction can be achieved by using the Repository Pattern. In the post I’ll show how you can use the Repository Pattern. (more)

Muhammad Mosa prepared a video on examples for unit testing EF apps. Entity framework has been considered hard to test, but Muhammad shows how to do it easily with Typemock Isolator. You can download the presentation and code and try it for yourselves.   You can also follow Muhammad on Twitter, and I suggest you do! (more)
