Spacial data type support will be my favourite.

I wonder what namespace/assembly these new .net data types will be added to

When is this slated for? Charlie Calvert says "next release", but what is the defintion of that? SP1? The next version of Visual Studio? Something else?

Thanks

# Daniel Simmons said on February 23, 2008 2:12 PM:

Something to keep in mind that may not have been clear from the post above is that while LINQ to SQL will have support for some of the new SQL Server 2008 types.  It won't, unfortunately, support the new spatial data types.  That's something which will have to come at a later time.

Linq to SQL is one of the greatest achievements ever to come out of Redmond.

# Jim Wooley said on February 24, 2008 6:00 PM:

I'm assuming this means that the designer will support SQL 2008 (minus the spatial data types) as well.

# Peter V. said on February 26, 2008 2:13 PM:

Great news Linq to Sql will soon support the SqlServer 2008 data types!

Will there be also improved tools for Linq to Sql? Like the model designer that can update the dbml-file when there were changes to the database?

Why, oh why did you make the ExpressionVisitor class internal and then published it's code (crippled) in MSDN?

I see no logic here.

# Kevin said on March 3, 2008 6:05 PM:

Will the LINQ to SQL designer support updating the dbml file when the schema changes?  Currently, my project is getting to the point were the LINQ to SQL designer will become unusable without this feature. :-(

# Andy said on March 7, 2008 10:44 AM:

@Kevin.... I agree, schema changes seem a weak point in the designer support.

# Faisal Mohamood said on March 13, 2008 9:54 PM:

Support for schema changes unfortunately didn't make it into the first release of LINQ to SQL. It certainly is among the features we are hoping to add for LINQ to SQL - but at this point it is too early to tell when it will be available.

Hello,

Have you heard about a new database synchronization tool Datbase Restyle (http://www.perpetuumsoft.com/Product.aspx?lang=en&pid=55) that supports LINQ To SQL object model and allows automatic synchronization if LINQ To SQL object model with your live database? Probably, this tool will be helpful.

# Freedom said on March 25, 2008 10:58 PM:

Any word on support for the XML Datatype?

# Kate said on March 28, 2008 3:15 AM:

This product supports XML Datatype as well. You should just try it.

Kate.

# dcazzulino said on May 30, 2008 4:17 AM:

It does not support XML Datatype-based queries, though. All you can do is retrieve the XElement in the loaded result set, but not specify a LINQ 2 XML (or XQuery, which is supported by SQLServer 2005+) as a filter.

# Kris said on August 28, 2008 3:04 AM:

@Kevin,

I have written an add-in that can update the dbml file with db schema changes. (and a few other tricks too)

You can download it and try it out - http://www.huagati.com/dbmltools/

# gemery said on May 8, 2009 11:34 AM:

how about UDT support for semi-native Sql Types. That being the new spacial stuff. Talk a show stopper. It would be cool if i could just import the binnary as a refrence and then l2sql could use that..
