Sedodream Relase: MSBuild Linq Tasks

I’ve created a new release of MSBuild tasks, at www.codeplex.com/sedodream. This release includes 4 .NET 3.5 tasks built on Visual Studio B2. Those are all Linq MSBuild tasks. They are:

The first three tasks simply wrap the SqlMetal command line utility. The last, CreateDatabse, will create a database from a Linq DataContext that is contained in an assembly. Right now there is little validation of the parameters passed, but I plan on adding additional validation. Also I will add more meaningful error messages, when invalid parameters are passed through.

Below you’ll find an example of the CreateLinqCode task.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<Project ToolsVersion="3.5" DefaultTargets="Create" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">

  <Import Project="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath)\Sedodream\Sedodream35.tasks"/>

  <Target Name="Create">

    <!-- sqlmetal /pluralize

              /conn:"data source=(local);initial catalog=ibrtest;integrated security=SSPI;packet size=4096"

              /timeout:15

              /language:C#

              /context:IbrTestDataContext

              /code:ibrtest.cs

              /views

              /functions

              /sprocs

              /serialization:Unidirectional

              /namespace:Sedodream.Linq.Test

              -->

    <CreateLinqCode

      CodeFileName="ibrahimTest.cs"

      ConnectionString="data source=(local);initial catalog=ibrtest;integrated security=SSPI;packet size=4096"

      Timeout="15"

      Language="C#"

      ContextClassName="IbrTestDataContext"

      IncludeViews="true"

      IncludeSprocs="true"

      IncludeFunctions="true"

      TargetNamespace="Sedodream.Linq.Test"

      >

    </CreateLinqCode>

</Target>

</Project>

Here is the CreateLinqDbml task usage.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<Project ToolsVersion="3.5" DefaultTargets="Create" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">

  <Import Project="$(MSBuildExtensionsPath)\Sedodream\Sedodream35.tasks"/>

  <Target Name="Create">

<!-- sqlmetal /pluralize

              /conn:"data source=(local);initial catalog=ibrtest;integrated security=SSPI;packet size=4096"

              /timeout:15

              /language:C#

              /context:IbrTestDataContext

              /dbml:../LinqObjects\ibrtest.dbml

              /views

              /functions

              /sprocs

              /serialization:Unidirectional

              /namespace:Sedodream.Linq.Test

              -->

    <CreateLinqDbml

      DbmlFileName="ibrahimTest.dbml"

      OutDir="."

      ConnectionString="data source=(local);initial catalog=ibrtest;integrated security=SSPI;packet size=4096"

      Timeout="15"

      Language="C#"

      ContextClassName="IbrTestDataContext"

      IncludeViews="true"

      IncludeSprocs="true"

      IncludeFunctions="true"

      TargetNamespace="Sedodream.Linq.Test"

      >

    </CreateLinqDbml>

  </Target> 

</Project>
