The 1.0.2004.2 beta will not start this week, but next week. I've to implement a few features before the beta can start. These features are below:

DONE- Uniquing for refetching prefetch paths and making sure withing contexts that entities are loaded in a single entity object, so loading a customer entity twice will result in the same object if loaded with the same context object (selfservicing/adapter). DONE- Various UnitOfWork enhancements DONE- SetNewFieldValue(index, null) should reset references if field with passed in index is an FK field. DONE- Setting a field mapped onto a relation to null should make fields on which the FK is based on also null (i.e. default value) DONE- VS.NET 2005 project files / adjustment of the project file generator task performer to handle vs.net 2005 project files.. Note: some references will have to be added manually, I don't know how to add them in the project file, as some ado.net providers use a hintpath and a regkey. DONE- minor changes to the generator config files (renaming)

Then there are some bugs which I want to fix, though I'll review them if they lead to new features or that they can be fixed in the beta period. I absolutely want to fix all bugs still open (lots of them are fixed by the new features already) before final release.

Sorry it will take another week, however I want these features to be part of the new version, so I'm not going to cut a week short just by dropping these.

I hope to fix the last bugs tomorrow (wednesday) and then release the beta (hopefully also wednesday, as I have to write an initial beta-test document as well)

With the beta a new build of template studio will be released as well (no new features, just a rebuild of the current code with new intellisense for the new TDL keywords and build against the new core assemblies) and a new command line code generator.

The beta will have rough edges, some features have been tested well, others have been tested not that well yet, so expect bugs. simple_smile .
