About Subsonic SubSonic is a toolset that helps a website build itself. At it's core it's: A Data Access Layer (DAL) builder that requires no code on youren-AUCommunityServer 2.1 SP1 (Build: 61025.2)http://blogs.msdn.com/frankarr/archive/2007/04/29/subsonic-all-your-database-are-belong-to-us.aspx#2325734Sun, 29 Apr 2007 17:30:37 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:2325734Udi Dahan - The Software Simplist<p>Does it allow us to implement the Domain Model pattern (<a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://udidahan.weblogs.us/2007/04/21/domain-model-pattern/">http://udidahan.weblogs.us/2007/04/21/domain-model-pattern/</a>), in other words, use our own classes to represent business logic?</p>http://blogs.msdn.com/frankarr/archive/2007/04/29/subsonic-all-your-database-are-belong-to-us.aspx#2331865Mon, 30 Apr 2007 02:19:22 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:2331865Joseph Cooney<p>I used subsonic on one of my recent projects - it's great (providing you want to use ActiveRecord). It would also be nice if it could work with things other than ASP.NET &quot;sites&quot; (like real ASP.NET web application projects) but I believe it has a dependency on the custom build providers which are only supported with web sites. </p>http://blogs.msdn.com/frankarr/archive/2007/04/29/subsonic-all-your-database-are-belong-to-us.aspx#2344186Tue, 01 May 2007 00:01:34 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:2344186Udi Dahan - The Software Simplist<p>You're kidding. You're saying that you can't use it either for smart clients or for non-ASP.NET servers?</p>http://blogs.msdn.com/frankarr/archive/2007/04/29/subsonic-all-your-database-are-belong-to-us.aspx#2414352Fri, 04 May 2007 23:01:04 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:2414352Rob Conery<p>Of course you can! The BuildProvider is in there for convenience only - we have a full-blown console app that works just like the Rails one in terms of generating code and even versioning your DB (schema and data) to file!</p> <p>We're getting our docs in order - come take a look!</p>
