Through the exercises in this workbook, you will discover how to create database-driven apps quickly using C#, Visual Studio.NET 2005, SQL Server 2005, and a useful tool called an O/R Mapper (LLBLGen Pro).
The advantages of employing these technologies will become clear to you, and you'll witness the entire procedure—including scanning the database schema, creating code, adding business logic, and creating the user interface—from beginning to end. We'll also talk about deployment, multi-threading, performance tuning, transactions, and validation. Although there are books, websites, and documentation that discuss each of these technologies alone, our goal in this book is to show how they may be utilized in concert to provide a quick and reliable solution.
