>From the article: "I don't think there's anything along the same lines in the Java world," he says. "I think this is an area Microsoft has innovated and gone in a direction that is different than a lot of the other programming languages have gone." Innovated? Na-- sticking with what they've always done-- steal ideas from elsewhere... Also from the article: "There will be some shops that take the view that they don't want the developers formulating SQL queries in their application, they'd rather move that stuff out of the application so they can have people who specialize in that kind of activity write the queries," Anyone work in such a shop? I thought developers were normally the ones that knew SQL(some better than others, of course)... DBA's usually being there to administer or point out database-specific optimizations in the query(the good DBAs).... Maybe I've just never worked in a "big enough" company... -- Derek _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
