Programming Entity Framework

---

The early walkthroughs, which demonstrate the use of the Entity Framework in a variety of applications (Windows Forms, Windows Presentation Foundation, ASP.NET, WCF services, and WCF Data Services), are written so that you can follow them even if you have never created a particular application type before. The goal of this book is to help developers not only get up and running with the Entity Framework, but also be empowered to gain granular control over the model and the objects that result through use of the core Entity Framework APIs. This second edition focuses on the version of Entity Framework in Visual Studio 2010 and .NET 4. Although the book will provide some guidance for using the Entity Framework in your application architecture, it is not a book about architecture. Instead, the book attempts to provide you with the information and knowledge you need to use the Entity Frame- work to solve your specific domain problems. Because of the vast scope of the Entity Framework, many topics on tools that leverage the Entity Framework, such as WCF RIA Services (a.k.a. Astoria) and SQL Modeling, are touched on but not covered in depth. Some of the Entity Framework’s features are comparable to LINQ to SQL and other object relational models such as NHibernate and LLBLGen Pro. Apart from a few paragraphs in Chapter 1, this book does not directly position the Entity Framework against these object relational models.
