EditableRootList Save

CSLA 3.6.1

I am using the editablerootlist stereotype, inherits from BusinessListBase.

When I try calling the Save, I get receive an "invalid operation - update not allowed" exception. If I override DataPortal_Update on my class and manually save the items in the collection it works.

I guess my question is in the book, it says "BusinessListBase class includes a default implementation of the DataPortal_Update() method, which loops through all child objects....) but I don't see this default? Looking at the templates, it doesn't override DataPortal_Update either...so what gives? :)

Have others gotten this to work?

My unit test looks like this...

Dim dies = RequestItemDies.GetRequestItemDies(requestItemId)

dies.Assign(dieId)

dies = dies.Save()

Thx!

One request, Rocky, could the templates be updated to include this? May save some confusion for others down the road.
