SubSonic: Version 2.1 (Pakala) Preview: The New Query Tool

Fri, 11 Jan 2008 09:01:05 GMT

Eric and I have been working just about non-stop on our bug list as well as some very cool innovations that he and I have cooked up over the last six months. We've had to wait a bit for the dust to settle in the .NET world (not to mention our personal lives), but I think the wait has been worth it. Over the holidays I was able to create the querying API I've been thinking on for the last year, and it has come together nicely. I'd like to show you what I've come up with, and ask for your comments and help before we release it with version 2.1 of SubSonic.
