Video should have been just one person presenting.

Maybe in future videos, I'll just do the introductions and let the presenter go on with the presentation Smiley.

Thank you

 

I followed along till Creating Data-Bound Controls section, when I click on the Show Data Source, Data Source window is NOT showing up the AdventureWorksLTEntities item. What am I missing? Please help, I am new to Data Model

Which version of Visual Studio are you using? The Data Sources Window support for EDM is recently enabled in Visual Studio 2010 Beta1.

Good walkthrough though, cheers.

Since most of current development is tier based the last thing the programmer wants to see is how the DAL getting used directly from within the GUI. how do I get XAML to bind to my BL output objects in that same easy way is what I miss here.

I was wondering how to detect changes. Say you only want to enable the save-button when something has been changed. How would you do that?

The toolkit (packaged as a ZIP file) contains:

 

a)      A VS 2008 template for MVVM apps

b)      A general intro to MVVM / MVC / etc. explaining why these are valuable

c)       A walk-through, which uses the template to build a simple app

d)      A complete WPF app (Messenger) demonstrating MVVM in the real world.

 

I hope this helps!

When the EDM is generated and the table dragged onto the design surface, default code is generated in the Windows loaded event handler and one can display the data and move back and forward using the techniques shown. However, when one tries to edit and save the changes no database update is performed.

 

I noted that the presenter and the MSDN documentation advises a replacement of the code but I don't understand why the default code does not permit database updates?

 

Thanks in advance

a quick note to say thanks, I found this presentation very helpful.

 

I noticed a few other commenters didn't like the content or style. I actually found it very clear and succinct. I'd be very pleased to see more videos posted in this interview/demo style. Keep up the good work.

Any idea where could i find some thing like this. I want to use EF with MVVM.
 
Thanks
