i4o是对LINQ的一个扩展,通过允许我们在对象上添加“索引”来提高LINQ运算速度,作者号称使用i4o后速度提升often over one thousand times。
我们在进行数据库查询优化时,往往第一想到的就是给Tables添加合适的Index来大幅度提升执行效率,i4o的实现也是类似这个方式,我们只要给class添加一个Indexable属性,然后使用IndexableCollection<T>来实现一个使用“索引”的类的集合就可以了,这样比起顺序性的搜索就在一定程度上提高了速度。
比如我们可以这样用:
1
var customers
=
new
IndexableCollection
<
CnblogUser
>
()
{
2
new Customer
{Key = 1, Name = "fanweixiao" },
3
new Customer
{Key = 2, Name = "lovewangshu" }
4
}
;

而SLINQ则是可以让LINQ作用于streaming data上的,目前这个项目只算是个Demo版本,实现方式是为LINQ添加了一系列的扩展方法,有兴趣的朋友可以down下sourcecode来看看,需要注意的是要安装Visual Studio Orcas beta 1。
顺便帖两个codeplex上与LINQ相关的项目:
- LINQ是怎么来的?看LINQ-SQO
- 在C++/CLI上用LINQ:LINQ Extensions
