Linq to RDF

The Wandering Glitch - Announcing LinqToRdf v0.6

"I’ve just uploaded LinqToRdf v0.6 with improved designer support for Visual Studio .NET 2008.

The release includes the following high-points:

  • LinqToRdf Designer and VS.NET 2008 extension completely rewritten
  • LinqToRdf Installer now includes the installer of LinqToRdf Designer (at no extra cost)
  • Project and Item templates now installed as part of LinqToRdf Designer
  • Generated object and data properties now get their own EntitySet or EntityRef.
  • Generates LINQ to SQL-style DataContext objects to hide query creation. Much Cleaner.

Google Code - LinqToRDF

"LinqToRdf provides a full-featured LINQ query provider for .NET using both local triple stores with Graph Matching and SPARQL queries on remote stores. It also provides graphical design tools for visual studio 2008 that provide a UML style design surface for the production of both ontologies and .NET domain models.

Having some Web 3.0 thoughts recently, this caught my eye...

While I doubt I'll start playing in the Web 3.0 space soon, I found this project interesting in that it also seems to provide an nice example of writing a complete Linq Query Provider...
