Hi,

Is Devforce planning to support its Synchronous methods such as SaveChanges() in Silverlight and why Silverlight only has your asynchronous methods? 

Thanks,
Von

Hi Von;

The asynchronous requirement is imposed by Silverlight itself and not by us so we can't really have synchronous methods until Silverlight changes its CLR.

However, DevForce does support synchronous operation when you work off the cache (as in querying from the cache,  http://drc.ideablade.com/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/query-fetchstrategy - http://drc.ideablade.com/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/query-fetchstrategy ) and offline. ( http://drc.ideablade.com/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/offline - http://drc.ideablade.com/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/offline )

Hope this helps.
