Louis,

Trying to save a single EO while leaving others unsaved is almost always indicative of a problem in your application's design. Think of an EOEditingContext as being somewhat like an SQL transaction, except that it persists in RAM beyond a single commit. Now, saying that you need to save a single EO is like saying (in the context of an SQL transaction) that you want to commit just one of several UPDATEs that are a part of the transaction; you're working against the grain of the frameworks. You should probably go back and re-think your design, so that you are no longer trying to save the single EO -- instead, your natural flow will be to save the entire state of the object graph tracked by the EC.

Hi

I would like to save newly created EO immediately but there could be
other objects in the default EditingContext which I do not want to
commit to the database immediately.

My first attempt was to create a new short term EditignContext,
insert my newly created EO in it and call saveChanges.

However  because this object has a relationsip to another one in the
defaultEditingContext, it cause an error about being unable to obtain
globalId

Any suggestions how to acheive this ?
