Different ways to keep state when building RIA with Silverlight
When building RIA with Silverlight, we will have some state issues we need to take care of. A Silverlight app by default is running in a browser, the browser have 3 bad buttons, Refresh, back and forward. If a user will press the Refresh button, the whole Silverlight app will be restarted. Same if they navigate from a Silverlight app with the back and forward buttons. If we build a RIA, our app will mostly hold the state for us on the client-side to reduce the number of round trip to the server etc. Lets assume a user will work with customer data. A user want to update the customer and information related to the customer. After 10 minutes of changes, the user suddenly by mistake refresh the page and all the data will be lost. So what we need to do when building RIA, is to remember the Refresh, back and forward buttons. This blog post will cover some of the Silverlight 3.0 features we can use to hold state and handle the Refresh, back and forward issues. This is something that I will also take up in my new updated Silverlight 3.0 course at Cornerstone (Where I work as an instructor, mentor, coach and consultant).

How SubmitChanges works in .NET RIA Servies
Now I’m back from my 4 week long vacation. I have spend a lot of time with my new apartment, took about 2 month to get most of it ready, I still have a lot of things to do, but all the painting and stuff are done :) I got a question on my e-mail regarding .NET RIA Services and the Business Application project’s UserRegistartionService. It was about the AddUser method in the Service and when and where it’s called. I thought it would be great to write a post about it.
