Project DescriptionMiado is a data-access layer with an intuitive and easy to use API which wraps around and improves upon the usage of straight ADO.Net code.
What is it?Miado is not yet-another-ORM library. If you are looking for an ORM tool and/or SQL generator, look at LINQ, NHibernate, Subsonic, etc. However, if you need or want to use the power of straight-up SQL, Stored Procedures, and ADO.Net, Miado offers:
- A much easier API to program to compared with standard ADO.Net
- Intuitive usability since it is designed to read like a Domain-Specific-Language
- A vendor-neutral ADO.Net interface with the ability to easily swap out DbProvider implementations
- Automation of repetitive, error-prone, boiler-plate ADO.Net code
- Easy integration with Inversion-of-Control containers
- Ability to easily create custom business objects from ADO.Net result sets
- Support for easy unit testing and mocking
- Simple integration in PowerShell scripts since data access code is much less verbose
APIThe API is located at: http://www.miado.net IMiadoRepository and IDbStatement are the two main components of the API, and the documentation for each one provides examples of how the API is used.
