Interesting libraries based on LINQ

Question

Every man and his dog seems to be adding an implementation of LINQ to something.

• http://linqtowikipedia.codeplex.com/
• http://www.codeproject.com/KB/linq/LINQtoCSV.aspx
• http://mhinze.com/linq-to-nhibernate-in-10-minutes/

it's even been ported to javascript http://jslinq.codeplex.com/

But I'm wondering about other more niche LINQ to projects or implementation that are out there that we should know about.

Answer 1

Linq to Lucene. Lucene is the open source Java Full Text Search (Ported to .Net called Lucene.NET) library and has its own querying syntax. Perfect fit for Linq.

Answer 2

Check out Reactive Extensions, which uses LINQ to define and manipulate asynchronous processing workflows as if they were observable collections.
