Cuemon 2.7.2014.250

This package has no dependencies.

This is a major release with several improvements, bug fixes and breaking changes due to severe refactoring prior to version 2.5.2013.2800 (file version <= 2.6.2013.3330). This is the result of the fact that I am maturing the Cuemon family to go open source with version 3.0.2014.
The following work was completed for this release:

- A new static class was introduced in the Cuemon namespace; ArrayUtility. This class was designed to make some array related operations easier to work with
- A new class was introduced in the Cuemon.Annotations namespace; EmailAddressValidationAttribute. This class denotes one or more properties that validates an email address for an entity
- A new class was introduced in the Cuemon.Annotations namespace; MaxLengthValidationAttribute. This class denotes one or more properties that specifies the maximum length of an array or string allowed for an entity
- A new class was introduced in the Cuemon.Annotations namespace; MinLengthValidationAttribute. This class denotes one or more properties that specifies the minimum length of an array or string allowed for an entity
- A new class was introduced in the Cuemon.Annotations namespace; RangeValidationAttribute. This class denotes one or more properties that specifies the numeric range constraints for an entity
- A new static class was introduced in the Cuemon.Transactions namespace; TransactionUtility. This class was designed to make transaction related operations easier to work with
- A new static class was introduced in the Cuemon.Data namespace; DataTransfer. This class provides a way to convert an IDataReader implementation to a table-like data transfer object
- A new class was introduced in the Cuemon.Data namespace; DataTransferColumn. This class represents the column of a table-row in a database

- A new class was introduced in the Cuemon.Data namespace; DataTransferRowCollection. This class represents a collection of DataTransferRow objects for a table in a database
- A new abstract class was introduced in the Cuemon.Data.Entity namespace; Entity. This class holds the core logic of all Entity derived classes and has caused the removal of several similar interfaces (IBusinessEntity, IBusinessEntityCollection, IBusinessEntityDataMapped, IBusinessEntityRepository) (breaking)
- A new class was introduced in the Cuemon.Data.Entity.SqlClient namespace; SqlDefaultAdapter. This class provides a default Microsoft SQL Server implementation of the SqlEntityDataAdapter class

- The AsyncCall class was refactored so that it no longer implements the dispose pattern

Note: this version has a breaking change from assembly version 2.5.2013.2800 to 2.7.2014.250. This was done because of the breaking changes since the 2.5.2013.2800 version.
