Hello,

I am currently working on a application that requires access to two separate but identically structured databases.

From what I got out of the documentation it seems easy enough, just define the data source extension in the web.config, refer to it when creating the EntityManager, and add the appropriate .svc file.

cl = new DomainModelEntityManager(true, "Local");
cr = new DomainModelEntityManager(true, "Remote");

However, when I do this it always seems to use whichever data source extension that is defined in the Object Mapper.

Anyone have any suggestions?


Thanks,

Do you also have EdmKeys defined for each, in both the client app.config and the web.config?  The web.config needs the two EdmKeys, say "Default_Local" and "Default_Remote", so that it can obtain the correct database connection information; while the client app.config needs the two keys - with the same key names as used in the web.config - to both identify the data source and also the correct EntityServer service.

Thanks for the reply Kimj,

Changing the name attributes of the edmKeys to "Default_Local" and "Default_Remote" (Instead of just "Local" and "Remote") did the trick!
