Re: What is the state of the art for using LINQ with PostgreSQL?

Replying partially to my own question:

I downloaded the Express provider from DevArt. I then set them an E-mail as scornfully as I possibly could write suggesting that if they are going to provide samples with their code, the samples should probably be tested at least once.

We'll see if their customer support people are willing to reply to someone as rude as I was, but they thoroughly deserved all the rudeness I used and many times more.

Greetings!

I would like to begin learning to use LINQ with PostgreSQL. Ideally, it would be good to have free tools to do it, since I probably won't be finished playing with it before 30 days are up and I'd have to pay for something. It would also be good if whatever I use has a good set of tutorials that I can follow to begin using them. Where should I start?

I have found the dotConnect provider from DevArt, and I'm going to begin playing with their free "Express" provider. Does anyone have experience working with DevArt's tools, and if so, what did you think?

Thanks very much!
