Hi all

What is the most commonly used object persistence framework for .NET?



Thanks

Pete

Hello Peter,

NHibernate, it's used widely in Java world, before .NET and then was ported
to .NET
But ADO.NET vNext seems to be .NET standard after VS Orcas release: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/data/aa937723.aspx

try also Gentle .NET (http://www.mertner.com/confluence/display/Gentle/Home)
and Sooda (www.sooda.org)

Gentle .NET provides caching, automatic sql query building, data binding,
database suport:
http://www.mertner.com/confluence/display/Gentle/Database+Provider+-+Implementation+Status.
suport is only for 1.x for now. version 2.0 is unverway;

Sooda provides code generation, caching, automatic sql query building and
support for .net 1.x and 2.0 and MS sql 2000/2005/Express

Cheers,

Hi Pete,

Persistor.NET is not the most commonly used - but the best solution if
you are satisfied with forward mapping only. It is not an O/R mapper
but it stores your object model without any compromise - all your
classes and even all .NET Framework classes.

I don't mean to hijack the thread but this seems like the right group to
ask;

Can anyone comment on the current state of the ORM/Persistent products and
support for proper and full WPF binding?

I've run into some problems with my current choice and I'm ready to jump -
specifically any experience with nhibernate with exceed's wpf data grid?
(seems like that combination would push all the buttons to see if they
worked).

    It's my understanding that WPF supports full .NET 2.0 binding, which
means as long as INotifyPropertyChanged is implemented, it will work
properly.

    DependencyProperty support is a total different ballgame, I think you
then will be dissapointed for the moment, however, when I look around
for full WPF control libraries, I don't see many offerings as well at
the moment.

    What's the current tool you're using, and does it use / implement
INotifyPropertyChanged on the entity classes ? (directly via code
generation/base classes or via dyn. proxy / IL weaving ) ?
