Entity Framework Extended Library

A library the extends the functionality of Entity Framework.

Features

• Batch Update and Delete
• Future Queries
• Audit Log

Project Package and Source

NuGet Package:

Install-Package EntityFramework.Extended

• NuGet: http://nuget.org/List/Packages/EntityFramework.Extended
• Source: http://github.com/loresoft/EntityFramework.Extended

Batch Update and Delete

A current limitations of the Entity Framework is that in order to update or delete an entity you have to first retrieve it into memory. Now in most scenarios this is just fine. There are however some scenarios where performance would suffer. Also, for single deletes, the object must be retrieved before it can be deleted requiring two calls to the database. Batch update and delete eliminates the need to retrieve and load an entity before modifying it.
