Source codes, releases and documentation moved from google code and Mercurial to GitHub and git. Legacy address of old hosting: http://code.google.com/p/genericrepository/

02.04.2011 - GenericRepository 1.1.0 released

Rebuilded with latest libraries

• NHibernate 3.1.0 with build-in LINQ provider
• Latest Autofac, LinFu DynamicProxy, NUnit Bugfixes. Clean up.

Entity Framework is still CTP4, EF 4.1 is now Release Candidate (RC), waiting for official release.

29.7.2010 - Extended ISpecificationResult

Extended ISpecificationResult with following useful common functionality:

• Skip
• SingleOrDefault
• OrderByAscending
• OrderByDescending Added implementation for IQueryable based specification result and NHibernate ICriteria based specification result. Added unit tests.

Important note regarding Skip functionality

See GenericCustomerRepositoryFixture.cs, test method GetCustomersButSkipSome() for comments and play with it to experience the issues.

NHibernate 2.1.2.4000 with NHibernate LINQ compiled for this version Only NH is able to correctly handle Skip command (also together with other commands like OrderByXXX) and has to dependencies on concrete command position in fluent interface call.

Linq2Sql that ships with .NET 4.0 Linq2Sql ignores OrderByXXX command if present AFTER Skip call.

Entity Framework 4.0 with extensions CTP4 EF is not capable of handling Skip command without preceeding OrderByXXX command. It will not handle Skip command if OrderByXXX is after the Skip, the OrderByXXX MUST GO BEFORE Skip command. Otherwise it throws.

25.7.2010 - Finalized Entity Framework 4.0 Features CTP4 implementation

Fixed unit tests and added test initialization code. As CTP currently have no support for clearing tables before each test run, we have to clar the tables manually. Hopefully this will be resolved by MS team in future.
