Silverlight TV 41: Top Tips for WCF RIA Services

The Discussion

• 

  Great! Just what I needed to help me do my RIA Services session for TechEd Brazil 2010!

• 

  That is excellent! I was thinking exactly the wrong way. Being able to use POCOs could improve a lot the performance when needed.
  Thanks Dinesh, and Jhon.

  Thank you Dinesh
  
  We need more videos like this one; we're already way beyond the saturated beginner's series that continue to pop up everywhere.

  
  This is the first video I've seen that takes in consideration that many of us started heavy learning the VS2010 Stack over a year ago..
  
  Now I know what I was doing wrong
  Doing an include across Many relationship tends to give really bad performance as the generated SQL query is really complex.. I was doing it wrong
  
  Dinesh, You saved my day and many days to come by pointing me on the right direction

  Good stuff, we need more demos like this one with POCOs and any kind of repository, perhaps a few tips and tricks around update scenarios as well?
  :)

  excellent thanks very helpful

• 

  very good!
  It's high time that we need samples like this (I remember an very good series of blog posts by Brad Abrams)
  I'm actually working on an enterprise app that use nHibernate as DAL and WCF RiaServices on the wire; I've got to say that it's more tricky that is seems at a first glance, primarily: limitations on the generated DomainContext (just today I'm excited about the release of sp1) and performance issues when loading complex object graph... (eager/lazy load)

  But despite this, nHibernate and WCF RIA are a great pair!

  Hey John and Dinesh,

  The company I develop for uses a third party DAL generator called LLBL Gen, and I was wondering if either of you had some information about how I could incorporate that DAL with WCF RIA services?  Thanks in advance guys.  Great show!

  The nHibernate example, posted here, is a corrupt zip.

  could someone please upload a non-corrupt version?
