I am trying my best to understand what is the difference between “ADO.NET – Entity Data Model” and “LINQ To SQL”, but I cannot figure it out.
Can someone please explain the differences between the two and the advantages and disadvantages?
Thanks
Frank
Linq to SQL was actually a proof of concept for Linq. See The Origin of LINQ to SQL. Microsoft is putting its weight behind Entity Framework, although I believe it’s not quite ready for prime time.
Anyway, this StackOverflow post provides some additional detail about the differences.
