Ruby IronRuby
1

hello,

i’m a newbie here. joined now.

i’m exploring ironruby from scratch.

few questions to start with…

LINQ to SQL… is a nice thing currently supported in C# and Vb.Net.

i would like to know… if this has been implemented now or its too
early to ask.
when will it be supported…?

Which other ORM’s are under consideration…?

Will IronRuby work smoothly with Asp.Net MVC…?

I would like to peep into a samll sample code for

IronRuby with Asp.Net MVC and
LINQ to SQL with IronRuby…

Hope,i have not asked for more.

Hi

I’ll put an article up on the manning site this week that shows you how
to
use various .NET ORM’s with IronRuby

At this stage I can’t show you an example of IronRuby with ASP.NET MVC
but
it should be possible in the future I think. For ASP.NET MVC we need
support
for custom attributes.

Thanks Ivan

Exciting news for me. By any chance are you also covering SubSonic as
one of the ORM’s.

It would be helpful to me and others, if you will Kindly place a link to
article here

Please post a URL when you do that - I’m not familiar with the “manning
site”.

Good one to book mark, specially for all those waiting for Merb

Hi Ivan,

Just to know… which database have you selected working with
ActiveRecord and SubSonic.

Is it MySql or SQL SERVER…?

You must have made some comparisons to study the major difference
between ActiveRecord and SubSonic…Can you kindly blog on your website,
in case if this is not a part of your book.

Thanks

Hi

I haven’t found a good way to do those things yet. For the moment I’m
focussing on getting the first couple of chapters ready for the meap.
I don’t know how to use generic notation for the c# classes that need
it.
And still wasn’t able to do a query with linq 2 sql, as soon as I get
some
free time I’ll try again. When I get some stuff going I’ll surely post
about
it.

I also have a job so i can’t spend as much time on IronRuby as I’d like.

Cheers,
Ivan
