Reading a book on Entity Framework and they say that LINQ is only available for C# and VB.NET. But for other languages you can use Entity SQL.
If you are doing a project in C#, is there any reason to use Entity SQL anyway? Any experiences with this?
Maybe it could be for something that can’t be expressed in Linq?
Though best to rethink what you are doing though because this is usually the hint of smelly code instead as Linq is fairly complete
Some people may want to use it for dynamic filters or orderbys, but probably best to use a mix of Linq and Dynamic Linq

Is there a way I can dynamically define a Predicate body from a string containing the code?
