Hey Frans/All,

I have actually been wondering about this since you added the functionality of mapping Views as entities.

Are Typed Views still useful? What would be the advantage of using a Typed View over a view mapped as an entity?

Just curious,

Phil

A typed view is by definition a list, not a single row entity. Filling a typedview will costs less overhead as the columns in the typedview/datatable have to be defined once, so the fill logic is a little faster than filling an entity collection with entity instances. As a typedview is readonly, it might be a solution to some parts of the system, where readonly data is enough.
