Hi All,

There doesn't appear to be a userState args available on the CslaDataProvider.Save method, though the callback signature contains SavedEventArgs which have this property - am I missing something obvious?

I'd like to be able to feed state info back to the callback

Thanks,

Charles

CslaDataProvider is modeled on the Microsoft data provider concept - which is now effectively obsolete. The design of CslaDataProvider exists to mirror Microsoft's data provider designs in WPF, and they didn't do userstate.

Generally I recommend switching to an MVVM model using ViewModel or ViewModelBase, as these are more forward-looking techniques.
