SilverLight Help

SouthSpawn posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009

I am doing the following.

GetContentFromDOM();

                    Csla.Silverlight.CslaDataProvider p;

                    p = this.Resources["CompanyData"] as Csla.Silverlight.CslaDataProvider;

Company c = p.Data as Company;

                    c.MyCHILDClass.Summary = _campaignContent;

                    p.Save();

When I do this, it will save the "c.MyCHILDClass.Summary" child data.

But for some reason, it will not save the "Parent" data under the "c.MyProperty".

If the remove the

Company c = p.Data as Company;

c.MyCHILDClass.Summary = _campaignContent;

It then will save the parent data.

Any thoughts??

Maybe is it is not Dirty? Technically when you just change Summary object, IsSelfDirty for company is still false.

Sergey, I basically have an object that looks like this.

=====================================

a.ChildObject.AnotherChild.MyDescriptions

=====================================

I did the following check.

a.IsSelfDirty = true

a.ChildObject.IsSelfDirty = false

a.ChildObject.AnotherChild = true

In my DataPortal_Update method on the main parent object.

I am including the "FieldManager.UpdateChildren();"

All fields for the main parent object "a" are two way databounded to the XAML.

I have to set the a.ChildObject.AnotherChild.MyDescriptions "Manually, because the data is coming from an HTML WYSIWYG editior. So I use the DOM to handle this.

Now, when I "manually" set the a.ChildObject.AnotherChild.MyDescriptions = "MyDescription";

Any changes maid to the "Databinded" data in main parent object will not happen.

But if I comment on the code that is manually setting the "a.ChildObject.AnotherChild.MyDescriptions" property, now the main parent data will save.

I hope I explained this right :) :)

It all looks OK to me. I’d recommend to set a breakpoint in a.DataPortal_Update to see what is happening there.
