I have a number of dev developers coming online and need to get them up to speed on LLBL-LINQ.

Are there any LLBL LINQ resources beside those in the manual, perhaps a tutorial or a list of examples for these guys.

From my own experience, these steps are sufficient:

• Getting familiar on LINQ. There are a lot of resources out there. This for example: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb308959.aspx

• Getting started on LINQ2LLBL. The manual is a good place to do that.

• Take a look at LLBLGen Pro v2.6 UnitTests examples. There you can found a lot of examples of how doing LINQ2LLBL queries. These tests are located at [LLBLGen Pro v2.6 Installation Folder]\Sourcecode\LinqUnitTests.

The unit tests are pure gold. I learned a great deal from them.

Also, for just Linq stuff, try LinqPad, at http://www.linqpad.net/ . It's got some good examples of simple low-level kind of Linq stuff. I'm told you can also bring in other assemblies, which should make the LLBLGen Linq code available within the environment, but I've not tried it.

LinqPad is strictly for linq to sql, it wont work with linq to llblgen pro or another linq provider. I've plans for an LLBLPad, but no release date is known as there's not a single byte coded yet.

Well, get to clickin'! Seriously, that sounds great, I look forward to it.
