I posted both slides and demo code from my "Making ORM applications more secure/Naredimo ORM aplikacije varnejše" presentation held at Bleeding Edge conference in Portorož on 1.10.2008.The material is in Slovene language. Enjoy.

Frans released a new major version of his LLBLGen Pro ORM. Basically, a top notch ORM product got even better. Make sure you check the what's new list - and if you are looking for an (better) ORM, don't hesitate to give it a try, you won't regret it. The only feature I miss is LINQ support which is supposed to appear in ...

Get much awaited ADO.NET vNext Entity Data Model Designer Prototype, CTP here (note: you'll need LINQ May CTP and ADO.NET vNext CTP (August 2006) to make it work. And make sure you don't install this stuff on production machine as you can easily get into troubles. Check out a couple of ADO.NET vNext screencasts here.

LLBLGen Pro has an internal tracing mechanism that outputs data to Trace class using standard .net mechanism. To enable various tracing categories you have to switch one various TraceSwitches either at runtime or in config file. But what if you want to execute the same select directly in Sql Server Management Studio perhaps? The reason might be ...

These days I had a need to use ResultsetFields for fetching dynamic list. As you know, ResultsetFields derives from EntityFields2 (I am working with LLBLGenPro 2.0 .net 2) which is basically an array. There is nothing wrong with that, it is just you have to set its size beforehand (ok, you can explicitly expand or contract it later on) and ...

If you have a PocketPC and you want to read CHM files (compiled HTML Help Format - previous MS' help format) on it then here is the solution. Pete's free CHMReader does the job very well and the result is actually very readable. I read every issue of MSDN Magazine (free CHM downloads) on PocketPC while I wait somewhere (don't you hate waiting ...

I started to build my own collection of LLBLGen Pro plugins. For now, there is only one - Generic Field Setter. It is capable of looping through single/all project entities and set matching fields to read only. The comma delimited field list can be set through project custom propery or typed directly. As a bonus, you can set default values through ...

Yesterday I crafted a Final Builder 4 action for LLBLGen Pro that invokes its command line code generator utility (CliGenerator). You can find free download here.Note: CliGenerator is included with LLBLGen Pro SDK which is an extra download available for customers (actually you have to build the utility from sources that ship with ...
