Devart is glad to present the new version of*LinqConnect 4.0*- an
enhanced LINQ to SQL compatible ORM solution with extended
functionality and support for SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL,
and SQLite.
Devart's LinqConnect 4.0 introduces new editions for Silverlight and
Windows Phone 7. Now it provides ADO.NET and LINQ Data Access for the
applications. With the new editions users get an opportunity to
connect directly to Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL. In addition, they offer
an embedded SQLite-based database engine to store data in fully
relational database in Isolated storage.
LinqConnect 4.0 demonstrates a new degree of performance, stability
and enhanced funtionality. In the latest version of LinqConnect users
can apply the improved SubmitChanges for the most complicated cases.
Devart Team made an effort to optimize the performance of LinqConnect
and as a result cache was improved, Submit performance and
materialization performance has risen and stored procedure mapping was
enhanced.
Starting from the 4.0 version, LinqConnect uses only its own classes.
It does not reference the System.Data.Linq assembly any more so this
assembly is not loaded with applications, using LinqConnect. However
that does not affect on the LINQ to SQL compatibility. Public
interface of the classes is completely compatible with the public
interface of Microsoft LINQ to SQL classes. Moreover, Devart Team has
added the Upgrade Wizard for easy upgrading of LinqConnect projects to
the new version of LinqConnect in a few clicks.

LinqConnect visit Devart's blog article.
