Genome V4.0 released: LINQ-integrated O/RM for .NET 3.5 and Visual Studio 2008

elina h — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 04:00:00 GMT

Genome V4.0 has been released to provide a proven and matured LINQ integrated O/RM solution for .NET 3.5 and Visual Studio 2008.

Since the advent of .NET, Genome has kept pace with the latest advances on the .NET platform, offering a safe upgrade path for existing project investments. Having adopted LINQ with the first CTP in 2006, Genome has now switched over entirely, using LINQ as its primary query language. As a unique advantage on top of LINQ’s capabilities, Genome allows you to encapsulate and reuse query logic in your domain models.

This release of Genome also brings you a number of extensions and improvements:

GDMX: customisable database management extensions for database/schema comparisons that support both forward and reverse engineering.
GMX: a framework of customisable messaging extensions to help you create distributed service-oriented applications. GMX supports any type of communication architecture (e.g. WCF, JSON) where data transfer objects are composed (partially) of server-side Genome mapped business entities on the service interface.
GRIP: Genome’s rapid interface prototyping has also been extended to scaffolding, so that you can now generate customised UIs for ASP.NET with Microsoft’s Text Templating Transformation Toolkit (T4).

Announce: Flixon Site Generator V2 now available

jimibt — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 04:00:00 GMT

Hi all,

Anyone that 'knows' me will be totally aware of how much i go on and on regarding the Flixon Site Generator (just don't invite me to your dinner parties ). Well, after having made considerable changes since the last version, I'm pleased to announce that V2 is now in an advanced beta stage and is available for download.

A brief outline of what the last version was capable of can be found here:

http://www.flixon.com/site-generator/

The new features since version 1 include:

Entity 'style' relationship model. This allows for one to many, many-many and parent/child (as well as child parent) relationships to be modelled.
New improved interface which stores previous entries for easy re-runs
New template set which visually presents the foreignkey fields as readable attributes from the primary table.
Full lazy-loading of objects.
Custom List<T> objects that can be serialised in/out to an xml stream, maintaining all child objects

These are just a few of the very worthwhile highlights in V2. Why are you still sitting there, you can download the entire version from:

http://www.originaltalent.com/downloads/FlixonV3.06.zip

And you can download a (rough and ready) version of the user-guide from here:

To see an example of the generator after being run against the Ubiquitous 'Northwind' database, click below:

Ok, happy downloading and playing. I look fwd to comments on both the concepts and changes included in this version.

Please note that to take advantage of the many new features that were rolled into SQLServer2005, 2005 is the lowest supported database version that the Site Generator is compatable with. There are no plans (yet) to make it backward compatable to SqlServer 2000. I apologise for this but will take it into consideration if there is a strong case supporting 2000 compatability.

Cheers for now

Enterprise-grade O/RM with LINQ for Visual Studio 2008 RTM: Genome 3.3.6 released

elina h — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 05:00:00 GMT

The latest release of the object-relational mapping framework Genome complements .NET 3.5 with the full spectrum of O/RM capabilities for enterprise application development. Genome supports multiple database platforms (MS SQL, Oracle, IBM DB2), flexible mapping of legacy database schemas and load span optimisation. Genome does not limit you to reverse engineering from existing databases, but also allows you to forward engineer from your domain model. Born and bred for the .NET Framework and Visual Studio 2008, Genome offers full, uncompromising support of LINQ. Compile-time processing of mapping files and wizards for rapid UI prototyping for ASP.NET are just two examples of how Genome can boost your productivity. Check www.genom-e.com for a free trial version and more information on Genome’s enterprise-grade features.

Get a head start with Genome: support for “Orcas” beta 2 is already available

elina h — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 04:00:00 GMT

Visual Studio beta 2 and LINQ are hardly out of their boxes yet and Genome 3.3 beta 1 has already been released to support them. This release of the object-relational mapping framework Genome allows you to fully leverage LINQ and Visual Studio 2008 beta 2. Making the most of cutting edge technology, Genome allows you to encapsulate and reuse your LINQ queries. Genome automatically maps business objects to well-established relational database systems such as Microsoft SQL, Oracle and IBM DB2, sparing you the monotonous task of coding your data access layer manually.
