New Silverlight 2 ADO.NET Data Service Example

Silverlight Logo

I've finally had a chance to update my Silverlight 2-ADO.NET Data Services example. In this new sample I show how to create a Line-of-Business application (an XBox Game editor) using ADO.NET Data Services against both an Entity Framework model and NHibernate. Unlike earlier examples, this one includes implementation against the ADO.NET Data Service Silverlight 2 library to support saving of changed entities. In addition, I show some techniques for paging, retrieving simple types over an ADO.NET Data Service and full styling of the application. I hope to add support for Forms Authentication in the coming weeks.

Feel free to post replies with questions about the sample.

Martin,

I am looking into this now. What version of FF are you using?

Fixed...it was a bug in my code for serializing non-Entity Service Operations (that I am submitting to SilverlightContrib).

Thanks and keep up the good work.

One small suggestion. Can you include the NHibernate dll's you are using - there is so many different version out there.

Martin,

I am purposefully not doing that so I don't become a central place for it. The version I am using is directly from the NHibernateContrib project.

the NHibernateContrib "burrow" download includes the NHibernate and Log4Net dlls, but the NHibernate.Linq dll is nowhere to be found. How about some clearer instructions, so that people can actually compile your code?
