Thank you for your lighting-fast reply!

Indeed, the code is more shorter and clean.. I'm now taking a look at TempHire sample and will look forward to the Compatibility Pack if the there's a lot of code and no time to upgrade all.

Thanks again!

If you can't upgrade all your code right now, you can use the compatibility pack.

This link will explain it:

Hi,

I would suggest you read up on Tasks, it replaces coroutines. Essentially the code would look like this:

public Task> GetCustomers()
{
    return await Manager.Customers
        .Include(c => c.Address)
        .OrderBy(c => c.Id)
        .ExecuteAsync();
}

I just typed that up in notepad, so I may be slightly off. As you can see it is a lot less code.

In your VM you can then write code like this:

var customers = await Repository.GetCustomers();

you can also wrap try statements around them now, unlike coroutines. ie:

try
{
await MyRoutine();
}
catch (MyException ex)
{
}

etc

I would strongly advise looking at the TempHire and other examples that have been updated to DF 2012

Good day,

I've migrated from 2010 to 2012 and some code doesn't work. All of them related to async.
So, I wonder if someone could be so kind to give me a hint here.

For example:

Here's what I was doing back in 2010:


        public void GetCustomers(Action> onSuccess, Action onFail)
        {
            Manager.Customers
              .Include(c => c.Address)
              .OrderBy(c => c.Id)
              .ExecuteAsync(
                  op =>
                  {
                      if (op.CompletedSuccessfully)
                      {
                          if (onSuccess != null) 
                              onSuccess(op.Results);
                      }
                      else
                      {
                          if (onFail != null)
                          {
                              op.MarkErrorAsHandled();
                              onFail(op.Error);
                          }
                      }
                  }
               );
        }

How should I convert it to 2012 in order to have this code working again?

Thanks in advance!
