ASP.NET MVC: Best Way To Call Stored Procedure

Question

I\'m trying to decide which is the best way to call a stored procedure.

I\'m new to ASP.NET MVC and I\'ve been reading a lot about Linq to SQL and Entity Framework,

Answer 1

LINQ to SQL and ADO.NET EF attach read stored procs to the data/object context class that you use to go against its various entities. For create, update, and delete, you can create a proc that maps the properties of an entity that the model generates, and using the entity mapping window (forget the exact name right now), you can map an entities fields with the proc parameters. So, say you have a Customers table, EF generates a Customers Entity, and you can map the proc parameters to the properties of the Customer entity when attempting to update/insert/delete.

Now, you can map a CUD proc to a function, but I don't know all the repercussions; I like the way I just mentioned the best.

HTH.
