A guide through WCF RIA Services attributes - Alex van Beek(blogs.infosupport.com)

submitted by alexb(268) 1 year, 3 months ago

When you use WCF RIA Services in your Silverlight projects, Visual Studio usually generates all kinds of classes in your server project (based on an .EDMX or .DMBL file) which are translated to Entity classes in your Silverlight client project. These serverside classes get annotated with all kinds of attributes, which RIA Services needs to function properly. If you find yourself in a somewhat more advanced scenario (no Entity Framework / LINQ To SQL for example), Visual Studio can’t generate these server side classes for you and you’ll have to create them manually. This is when it pays off to know the different attributes WCF RIA Services uses and this post will guide you through them.
