CSLA .NET version 3.5 is now available

CSLA .NET version 3.5 for .NET 3.5 and Visual Studio 2008 is now available for download from www.lhotka.net/cslanet/download.aspx. This version of CSLA .NET includes support for LINQ and provides substantial code reduction (often around 40%) when coding your business objects.

Check out the official launch announcement on DotNetRocks!

If you are using .NET 2.0 or 3.0 with Visual Studio 2005 or 2008 then you'll want to use CSLA .NET version 3.0.4. Version 3.0.4 includes some data binding bug fixes over version 3.0.3, and it works with .NET 2.0 or .NET 3.0. It is also available from the download page.

As always, questions and comments are welcome on the forum at http://forums.lhotka.net.

Now that 3.5 is out, what is your suggested way to learn it? You have the printed book for 2.0 and the update for 3.0. Is there a book update coming for 3.5?

It seems the books are cumulative. Would I need the printed version as well as the updates and is some things that existed in 2.0 now gone in 3.5?

Thanks.

Hi Rocky,

Like Rob, I'm looking forward to an updated book for v3.5. Are you planning on releasing a comprehensive print version at some point, or are you going to continue with the eBook releases from here on out?

BTW - I enjoyed the Hanselminutes interview.

Rocky,

Just downloaded and looking at 3.5, nice work...

I have one question, why not authorize can read at the query level, so the property value is empty when loaded if the user is not authorized to read, verses checking authorization when each property is read?

Thanks.

In the top of the change log:

Rename AddDependantProperty() to AddDependentProperty()

Maybe stress that the spelling of Depend'a'nt has changed...I had read it 5 times before I figured out that it was a mistake, just a one leter name change.

Just a thought for other slow people like me that aren't that quick.
