Hello folks,
This weekend at ALT.NET I had a chance of talking to Damien Guard from
the SQL Server team who wrote a set of TT templates that replace the
SqlMetal generator.
Damien said that the templates generate better code than SqlMetal ever
did, the output is easy to tune and can easily be expanded to do more/
less work by just changing the templates.
The code is under an open source license (MS-PL) and it is available
here:

These TT templates can be consumed directly by Visual Studio, here is
more information about TT:

We have now implemented a TT processor for the MonoDevelop IDE and we
are going to provide a command line tool that can be used on Unix/
Linux systems to run the tool as well from the command line.
I figured, perhaps this can be used to replace the Metal tool in
DbLinq as well?
