ADO.NET Data Services

This CTP is a preview of the set of features we are considering shipping with the next version of ADO.NET Data Services. This CTP targets the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and extends the functionality we provided in v1.0 of ADO.NET Data Services by providing additional features. This CTP builds on and makes updates to the functionality provided in ADO.NET Data Services v1.5 CTP1. As this is a CTP release, we recommend that you do not install this release on your primary development computer. Also, be aware that the features that ultimately ship with the final release of v1.5 may be different than the features included in this CTP. The features included in this CTP are: - Row count - Feed customization (aka "web-friendly feeds") - Data binding for WPF and Silverlight 3 - Enhanced blob support - Server-driven paging - Projection Support (via the $select query option) - A new "Data Service Provider" interface for custom providers - Various bug fixes to V1.0 features
