fun.ky,

All or our packaged samples work out of the box. Please post to the forums if you run into any issues.

Cheers,

Andrew.

It would be great if you post download link for this example with source code (together with all dlls) because i can’t get it to connect to sqlite (or it connects but then get an error “The ConnectionString property has not been initialized.”)

@Dan,

Yes, LightSpeed implements the Specification pattern as a fluent API for defining repository query expressions. This is also fronted by LINQ if you want to go that way.

We’re committed to supporting n-tier scenarios and are currently working on putting together a WCF REST sample using LightSpeed entities. What n-tier support, in particular, are you after?

Cheers,

Andrew.

Does light speed implement the specification pattern?
Also, does it support n-tier developmet scenarios?
Linq-to-Sql suffers greatly in this area. (Google it!)

If the answer is yes, do you document the strategy for using LightSpeec 2.0 in distrubuted environments?

Thanks,
Dan.

Good to see LightSpeed now supports multiple contexts – I probably would have used it for my current project if it had been able to do this a few months back ;) nice work guys
