CSLA .NET 3.6.2 available

• New methods on the ObjectFactory base class to better enable creation of a DAL object
• Better support for lazy loaded fields, where an exception is thrown if the field is mis-used accidentally (thus reducing bugs)
• ErrorDialog control for WPF and Silverlight to enable XAML-only handling of exceptions from CslaDataProvider
• CslaDataProvider now has a Saved event to simplify some UI scenarios
• RegisterProperty() now accepts a lambda expression to identify the property name, allowing the compiler to check the name, and avoiding the use of the string literal
• MobileDictionary type, so you can create a dictionary that serializes between Silverlight and .NET

• Better type name resolution, so you can now specify a type by "Namespace.Class, Assembly" without supplying the generic "Version=..." text
• New InventoryDemo sample project (C# only right now - it is a work in progress)
• Code snippets for async factory and data access methods

On a related note, the first segment of my CSLA .NET for Silverlight video series is complete, and I’m nearly done with the web infrastructure for the download site. You can get a summary of the video series content on the CSLA .NET for Silverlight video download page.

Once I get the store and download site complete, you’ll be able to purchase “early adopter'” access to the series – which means you’ll get access to each video segment as soon as it comes online. Look for this in the next couple weeks!
