ADO.NET Entity Designer Video - CTP 2

Please install Silverlight or click download to watch video locally.

This video demonstrates a number of important new features in the Entity Data Model Tools December CTP. First, it is now possible to visually map the insert, update, and delete stored procedures for entity types. Additionally, support for function imports allows the mapping of query stored procedures that return primitive types as well as collections of entity types. Finally, we demonstrate the new “Update Model from Database” feature which enables adding new database objects to the model, synchronization of existing objects, such as new table rows, and deletion of removed objects. The video takes a simple, scenario-driven approach, showing a complete end-to-end use of all of these features, from the creation of a new data model to executing code against it and tracking the number of stored procedures run during the run. ASP.NET Entity Framework technology is available in the ASP.NET 3.5 Extensions Preview (December 2007).

MORE TUTORIAL VIDEOS ON THE ENTITY FRAMEWORK PLEASE!!! Theres not enough help out there!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know that one difference is that linq to sql only supports single table inheritance, whereas entity framework supports multiple types of inherance including entity to multiple tables.

I completely agree with bananas, as well as the questions regarding the difference between this and linq2sql. It seems that MS is wanting us to gear toward using this for enterprise development, rather than linq2sql, but there is so little real support for it. I guess I'll wait until December (?) to get a decent book on it...
