Anthony Bloesch has an interesting post about the performance of 3 tree implementations in SQL Server 2005. I know this isn't ORM content per se, but trees come up so often in the real world that I thought I would post it.

In case you hadn’t noticed, I've made some changes. Cosmetically, it now has a spiffy (albeit derivative) new skin. Behind the scenes, there have been some code version changes. One result of this is a change to the RSS feed.

Visio has a generic layer facility that allows you to place shapes on one or more layers. A user can then specify settings for a given layer that dictate some behavior for all shapes on that layer.

Nested Role Readings |

Visio Tool Tips

|
|
You may have noticed than when an object type is the result of a nested predicate, you can specify extra information on the "Nested Roles" tab of the "Database Properties" window. This is provided in case you wish to add extra semantics between the relationship of the nested object type and the object types that make up the fact type that was nested.

User Defined Types and ORM |
|
Visio Tool Tips
|
By Scot Becker on

|
|
|
User defined types are typically used to express semantic domains that cross multiple attributes. For example, one could create a type named "Phone Number" as some sort of length-limited character type and then use that type as the basis for several attributes such as fax number, mobile number, office number, home number, and so on.
