Writing LINQ providers easily and elegantly (LinqExtender 3.0)
When writing a custom LINQ provider, developer must focus into plenty of issues other than the main purpose of just creating a LINQ to something. Like how to deal with projection, how to parse valued expressions, how to parse members, how to do orderby and the list goes on.

Extending your existing API or legacy data classes to support LINQ
While developing LinqExtender, i have come across various scenarios that people don’t want to extent any query class or even implement any interface. Also, it is almost absurd when they have to add new extender specific attributes to their entity class. It is though not very important for people creating new provider with small codebase but with large codebase it soon becomes a pain to modify each class.

LinqExtender 1.4.2 - Supporting Complex type arguments
I just made a quick update to the existing release of LinqExtender. I recently found a bug while building a feature for FlickrXplorer is that if you use constant type query with orderby clause it does pretty well, but it simply does not do well with complex ones. I have used the same logic that I have used for where clause arguments. Also, it will be out of the scope for this post to drill it down all the LinqExtender logic fort hat. But I would put a brief overview on it that can help you out while building your own IQueryable implementation.
