Can EF4 support batch updates?

Question

Does Entity Framework v4 support batch updates/inserts so rather than sending >1 command to a db, it can send >1 command to the DB in one go?

Thanks

Answer 1

I don't believe that has changed. You have the options of:

• Stored Procedures
• Stuff like this article
• Using T-Sql like in the answer of this question
