Microsoft ASP.NET 3.5 Extensions Preview (Dec 2007) – ADO.NET Data Services Silverlight Add-On

  • Published:
  • Version: 1.0
  • Category: developer-tools
  • Language: English

This add-on provides an ADO.NET Data Services client library to run inside Microsoft Silverlight 1.1 Alpha September Refresh applications.

The Microsoft ASP.NET 3.5 Extensions Preview CTP shipped in Dec of 2007 and included a client library to facilitate access to ADO.NET Data Services from applications built using the .NET Framework.

This add-on extends that CTP by introducing a version of the client library that can run inside the Microsoft Silverlight 1.1 environment. Like the .NET Framework version, this library also allows developers to execute queries asynchronously, providing a more natural interaction model for a web-centric application.
