.atomsvc document data feed question

Question

Hello,

I was reading about .atomsvc data feed definition files. I'm wondering if there is a sample  (and the data source) that I could look at to get an idea of how to create one. I searched on technet and msdn, but did not see any sample files.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi, you can try some of the OData feeds for SQL Azure, e.g. https://odata.sqlazurelabs.com/OData.svc/v0.1/hqd7p8y6cy/AdventureWorks.  Here are some more live examples: http://www.odata.org/blog/2010/3/18/got-sql-azure-then-you%27ve-got-odata
