Well, it’s official. I’ve gone completely mad and just sent a signed contract back to O’Reilly for the rewrite of my book, Programming Entity Framework. With such big changes to Entity Framework, I could not let the current version of the book fade away, even though so much of it will remain valid through...

They pointed me to the Amazon page for another book which has a video as a model for me, Getting Started with Arduino . So I spent some time creating a similar video for my book, first...

And I am in impressive company – with Dino Esposito & Andrea Saltarello and Jon Flanders. Here’s what David has to say about my book: Programming Entity Framework...
read more...It felt like ages for the first pile of books to run out but I've been told by O'Reilly they are running low enough at the warehouse that they are going to print another batch of books in a week or so. Tech book sales are bad all over, so even though I was hoping this would happen much sooner (sure,...
read more...While I truly enjoy the emails I'm getting from readers, I'm happy to share with you that O'Reilly has created a forum for discussing this book. http://forums.oreilly.com/category/74/Programming-Entity-Framework/ Keep the emails coming, but if you want to share your thoughts or discoveries with other...
read more...Because O'Reilly has a mechanism for readers to submit errata which allows authors to review, comment and confirm that errata, I would rather not duplicate the effort on this site. Here is a link to the errata page for my book on O'Reilly's website: http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596520281/errata/ ....
read more...I've really been wanting to share the acknowledgements from my book with a wider audience than just the readers of my book (or for that matter, just the readers who happen to even bother reading the Preface. ;)). So, here they are: Where do I begin? I have had great help and support from many people...
read more...One of the big questions people have about Entity Framework's dynamically generated queries is "what does the store query look like?", immediately followed by "is that store query acceptable"? There are a few ways to see what the store generated queries look like. One is to use ObjectQuery.ToTraceString...
read more...The book is already in print and I have a small box of them that I got last week. But still... there's something about Amazon's status that really denotes if the book is live or just memorex. So I was certainly happy to see this a short while ago: Of course Amazon isn't the only place to buy books. ;...
read more...Last week, I was demoing some basic Entity Framework queries to a client and explaining that the store queries are parameterized, alleviating one area of concern. But when we looked at SQL Profiler the query was not parameterized. Why was this? The query I had used was: var query = from c in context...
