Product Description
Product Description
This Wrox Blox demonstrates various LINQ to SQL techniques to use in upgrading the “Articles” portion of TheBeerHouse application. The first step is migrating TheBeerHouse project from an ASP.NET 2.0 to an ASP.NET 3.5 application. Next, create a LINQ to SQL class (DBML) mapping file that will encapsulate the entire Data Access Layer for this project. Readers will become comfortable working with Entities (Tables), navigating Associations (Relationships), and working with stored procedures from a LINQ standpoint, throughout the implementation.
LINQ to SQL has quickly become a hot topic with the release of ASP.NET 3.5, so it makes sense that the TheBeerHouse application gets an upgraded Data Access Layer leveraging this new technology!
While TheBeerHouse has been ported to Visual Basic .NET, the author uses C# throughout this Wrox Blox, so readers should have at least an intermediate level of understanding with C#.

Only C# Coding Examples, Not Enough on N-Tier, Oct 23 2010
By Robert MacFarlane - Published on Amazon.com
The Beer House (TBH) was my first step into ASP.NET and being an n-tier application was key for me to really understand the proper way to build an integrated website application. I never learned C#, but found a code sample of TBH using VB which was really helpful. While this brief mentions VB, all the code is in C#. I've learned to read C# well enough to know what is going on, but this document would have been more useful if it contained both the C# code as well as the VB code. I found this article lacking information on how the n-tier approach is maintained and any mention of how LINQ replaces all the DAL functionality of the original application. Sure the DAL is eventually removed, but passing on a complete understanding of the process was missing. Overall I think it's a good brief. At least it's only 6.99.
