Roadmap
Telerik plans to simultaneously-ship Telerik OpenAccess ORM with Visual Studio 2010.
With the latest release of Telerik OpenAccess ORM we gave our users access to the cloud based database SQL Azure as well as a new product demo site aimed at reducing the products learning curve. Among the many other new functionalities were the extended LINQ support and a second new database support - SQL Compact Edition.
In 2010 we will continue pushing the product forward towards solidifying its position as a powerful and innovative tool. We will give user more control over their data and means to visually map to their back-ends.
For Q1 2010 Telerik OpenAccess ORM will bring you things like:
New visual designer
A DSL designer will be introduced which will allow mapping to be done on a graphical surface. The designer will provide useful features like:
- “Add New Item” wizard - the wizard will collect all the info required to successfully start a new DSL implementation – it collects and transports: naming settings, code-generation settings, two meta models containing the complete relational schema and the selected part for the concrete DSL
- Schema Explorer – it will allow operations on the relational layer in the model and will support the schema merging process
- Details pane – it will contain a details editor that will allow modifying of all attributes required by OpenAccess and the mapping
Telerik Data Services Wizard
The already popular Telerik Data Services Wizard for creating web service endpoints will no longer come as a separate installation, but will be fully integrated in Telerik OpenAccess ORM Q1 2010. See Data Services Wizard Roadmap
Enhancements
- Extended database support for VistaDB
- Enhanced LINQ functionality with added support Subselects. You will be able to do multiple selects in a single LINQ statement
