Building Custom LINQ Enabled Data Providers using IQueryable

Bart De Smet wrote a hands-on tutorial that explains quite in-depth how one can build a custom data provider that is LINQ enabled using IQueryable. When completing Bart's "IQueryable Tales" tutorial, you'll have created a simple LDAP data provider that allows you to query Active Directory server. Here are the different parts of his tutorial:

• Part 0: Introduction
• Part 1: Key concepts
• Part 2: Getting started with IQueryable
• Part 3: Why do we need entities?
• Part 4: Parsing and executing queries
• Part 5: Supporting updates

Bart is now starting to work on a "LINQ to Sharepoint" project.
