Hey, what’s the easiest way to use a file-based database with LINQ in C#? It would be best if I could use it without installing extra components.
EDIT: I want to use it for a file index. Not the whole file system, but the database should be not too slow and not too big.
I’d recommend MS SQL Server Compact Edition. Its embedable, small footprint, good performance and you can use Linq2Sql to query it easily. Also it integrates well with Visual Studio IDE and SQL Management Studio.
