Self-Tracking Entity Generator for WPF and Silverlight Description
Self-Tracking Entity Generator for WPF and Silverlight will provide users with an Entity Framework project item to generate self-tracking entity classes for WPF and Silverlight applications. With these auto-generated functionalities such as client-side change tracking and multiple levels of validation support, along with authentication and authorization through Windows Identity Foundation (WIF), we should be able to build WPF LOB applications much more quickly. This, however, does not mean that we can develop any type of WPF application with self-tracking entities. First, using self-tracking entities usually means that we need to develop both client and server assemblies with Microsoft .NET 4.0 and beyond. For non-.NET clients, it is a big obstacle to create change-tracking behaviors and consume WCF services built with self-tracking entities. Another limitation is that we need to share the full entity classes on both client and server sides. In cases where we do not want to send all of an entity's properties to the client, we may have to develop an application with part of the data model using self-tracking entities, and the remaining part using DTO classes.
