Are there any linq-to-sql for Databases other than MS-SQL?

Question

Hey =)

I am wondering if it is possible to use Linq functionality to connect to a database like my-sql

If it is possible are you able to use the designer to created the DataAccessLayer like with MS-SQL or do you have to hand code its content.

Thanks in advance. KJ

Answer 1

Yeah check this out http://code.google.com/p/dblinq2007/

There has been a few posts just recently on this too, just search on stackoverflow for more details.

Answer 2

Linq to Sql only works with MS-SQL. Entity Framework can access several different database back ends and it fully supports linq. NHibernate can access more databases but it's linq support is not yet complete.

Answer 3

You could use IQToolkit.
