SubSonic 2.1 - Repository Pattern LINQ To Subsonic SubStage - Data Access Layer Generation
by David Hayden, Florida .NET Developer Filed: .NET Tools, Code Generation, O/R Mapper
SubSonic is a cool code generation tool and O/R Mapper that helps you generate a data access layer for your ASP.NET and Winform .NET Applications.
A new version of SubSonic, 2.1 Beta, includes a number of bug fixes as well as a new Repository Base Class for those who don't appreciate ActiveRecord and would prefer business classes void of data access code similar to the Repository Pattern in Domain-Driven Design. SubSonic has a new Query Tool as well as a feature called SubStage. There is also some talk of LINQ To SubSonic as well.
If you are looking for a tool / framework to help you generate a data access layer for your ASP.NET Web Applications, certainly give SubSonic a spin as it is a very active community with new code generation and O/R Mapping features being added often.
You can learn more by visiting the new SubSonic Project Home here. I recommend looking at LINQ To SQL, too.
