Hi Guys,

 

I know this thread is marked as OT, but I don't think it even comes close to
being within that very broad scope for the OZDOTNET list . The majority of
recent posts have all been just opinions, and everyone has a right to hold
them, and I defend everyone's right to their own opinion.

 

But I'm pretty sure that this isn't the forum to express them.

 

Cheers,

Trevor Andrew

Debt itself isn't a problem, this is garbage


debt does matter, it matters alot

more debt = less options
massive debt = no options

and spending money for the sake of votes is also garbage


i needed to make the correction also

to get the rich to like them as well, while still having problems with the
unions.

Liberals actually have 2 whole policies now I believe.

 

Well that would be 2 more than Labor, lets face it, they just have a long
line of disasters/failures/wasted many many billions and debt your great
great grand children will still be paying off ;)

 

But if I think you follow politics a bit more closely they have a few more
positions/policies than 2

I'm not sure if you remember Albert Langer (decades ago, in Victoria), but
he was gaoled for a short time for infringing the electoral act by forming a
political party called Tweedle Dum  Tweedle Dee which encouraged people not
to vote.

Entity Framework 2

2010-07-10 Thread Greg Keogh
Folks, last year I experimented with the Entity Frame 1 and after therapy to
recover I decided that it was too immature to use in a production app. The
vote
http://efvote.wufoo.com/forms/ado-net-entity-framework-vote-of-no-confidenc
e/  of no confidence it  received back then was based on more academic
issues such as persistence ignorance.

 

One of the main problems for me was that the generated Entity classes could
not be serialised over Remoting or WCF.  You see, I was biased because I had
been using netTiers generated entities for a few years, and they could be
completely round-tripped and remember their state.

 

We're just starting a brand new app which will need the data server to run 3
ways: in-process for simple installs; over-LAN in an office install; over
http for web access. A few years ago I wrote a demo app which proves that
WCF can do this 'as advertised' by simply changing the bindings (the http
way has reduced functionally of course).

 

So I'm happy to use WCF for component communication in the new app, but what
database entity classes am I going to be passing back and forth? Is Entity
Framework V2 a viable solution? Has anyone used EF2 in anger and can tell me
how it went? Any other modern and elegant techniques anyone can recommend?

 

Cheers,

Greg

Hi Greg,

 

 . The vote of no confidence
http://efvote.wufoo.com/forms/ado-net-entity-framework-vote-of-no-confidenc
e/ 

 

Agree. The soap packets in ASP.NET web-services were verbose as well. We
boxed/unboxed from Entities to changes-only CSV data either side of the
web-service to help with performance.

 

Is there any reason you cannot look at EF4.

 

You can use POCO classes, so serialization is less of an issue.

 

Regards,

Nic Roche
