The only thing I can find is a message thread between Dan and Markus discussing it. http://groups.google.com/group/castle-project-users/browse_thread/thread/4fb 8e68ab10479c2/13a65a1b8890e371
I have a hard copy of Markus's document on the Conversation pattern somewhere, will try find it, scan it and send it through to you. Markus did say it was designed as 'Conversation per Form' rather than 'Conversation per Application'. My approach when passing instances between forms or controls, is to get their PK and re-load the entity from the database using the new scope.

Can you point me to any documentation on the conversation stuff? I can't find anything on the AR web site. I tried to initialize a ScopedConversation when I configure AR but without a global session scope AR explodes as soon as I try to access a lazy loaded property in my front-end code. And keeping a global ConversationalyScope will probably be as bad as keeping a global SessionScope, right? /Christian -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nicholas Kilian Sent: den 30 mars 2011 10:50 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: AR and a stale transaction I guess you're on winforms? Take a look at ConversationalScope and ScopedConversation. There was an article on it somewhere, but I think it got lost in the move to the new docs site. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Christian Axelsson Sent: 30 March 2011 10:42 AM To: [email protected] Subject: AR and a stale transaction Hello, I try to persist an entity to database using myEntityRepository.Save(myEntity); // This will end up calling ActiveRecordMediator.Save(entity); SessionScope.Current.Flush(); By configuring AR to show SQL in output window I see that the update hits database but for some reason it isn't committed to DB. Investigating further I see that I'm stuck with an open transaction meaning that the whole table is locked until my session scope is disposed (upon application exist). Currently I create a session scope when AR is initialized and leave it there. Wrapping the save statement inside a new TransactionScope "fixes" the problem but I find that kind of ugly. Manually disposing the current session scope and recreating it also works but that is quite ugly as well I think. It feels like using a "global" session scope like this isn't really the way to go but if I don't create a session scope before starting to throw queries at AR lazy loading breaks. Any hints on how to solve this? /Christian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Castle Project Users" group.
