LINQ to SQL Beta2 Performance Numbers and the Dynamic Compilation Pattern

Jomo Fisher--Rico Mariani has been posting about LINQ to SQL perfomance and has finally posted the performance numbers for Beta2: http://blogs.msdn.com/ricom/archive/2007/07/05/dlinq-linq-to-sql-performance-part-4.aspx One of the tricks Rico and Matt

Why Symmetric Multicore is a Dead End for PCs

Jomo Fisher--There are two kinds of programming problems—those that can run in parallel and those that can’t. There’s no special sauce that can turn an inherently serial problem into an efficient parallel algorithm. Today’s top-end desktop has eight cores

Dealing with Linq’s Immutable Expression Trees

Jomo Fisher --I recently got a question via my blog that dovetailed nicely with something I’ve been working on: I know that expression trees are (or at least appear to be) immutable - which requires that you rewrite the entire tree if you want a tree

Visitor Revisitted: LINQ, Function Composablity and Chain of Responsibility

Jomo Fisher— Last time , I wrote about constructing an inline visitor using new C# language features. It worked fine for what it did, but it completely falls down when you want to extend existing visitors that you’ve created. What if I wanted to modify

Inline Visitor Construction using LINQ

Jomo Fisher—My current job is in the C# team working on LINQ to SQL. Because of nature of programming languages, very few days go by that I don’t deal with syntax trees and the visitor pattern. Occasionally, it would be convenient to create a quick one-off

Fast Switching with LINQ

Jomo Fisher—I’ve run into a performance problem several times in my career that I’ve never found a truly satisfying answer for until now. The problem can be distilled down to this: Look up a value based on a string key. The set of strings is fixed and

Creating Custom Aggregate Functions in LINQ

Jomo Fisher —Adriane asks whether it’s possible to create your own aggregate function like Sum, Avg, Count, etc. For object queries, the answer is yes. First, let’s look at the actual implementation of Sum: public static int Sum( this IEnumerable <

Evolution of a C# Query—Step by step from C# 1.1 to LINQ

Jomo Fisher —The future of C# was recently unveiled at PDC. Object, XML and relational data will be integrated deeply into the language. This isn’t really a new direction for C#, it’s the next step down a path that C# has always been headed. To see this,
