Comment on WCF RIA Services Validation by Sergey Barskiy

Sorry, it took forever to reply – I have been very busy.
No, I do not have it working with CSLA. IMHO, I would not use both CSLA and RIA Services validation as they use different models for the same purpose. I personally like CSLA validaiton better because it is more user friendly. Let me know if you would like to discuss this further.
Thanks
Sergey

I am interested in this blog post.
We are using CSLA, and trying to prevent user selecting SAVE if silverlight has marked input as invalid. We have the XAML side working and user is given feedback (e.g. string entered in decimal field). But because validation happens before value is passed back to the business object CSLA does not know that there is a validation problem and hence “save” is enabled and the last validated value is assumed on save.

Do you have example of your Validator.ValidateObject code working with CSLA – we could put something in our buttonclick event pror to calling CSLA provider.save?

Many thanks

Rob.

Comment on Silverlight 4 + COM + SQL Server = Cool! by Fallon Massey

@Kevin – Is there anything else in our lives you might want to control?

Just because your vision is limited, and can’t understand that some customers don’t give a rats crap about a Mac, but want the flexibility afforded by Silverlight over WPF, at least have the good sense to keep it to yourself.

Oops too late, you’ve exposed yourself in public.

This is such a bad idea…It defeats the purpose of Silverlight. What about someone on a mac? Why the hell would you want to use com to access the db? If you want a windows only app !edited out! use WPF and take advantage for the framework not some !edited out! nasty hack.

CSLA is a joke.

I am not sure right off hand. Why are you trying to do this?

In MVVM world, you can just put your VM into the data context, then you can just bind the source property of COllectionVIewSource to it. For example:
