Hi,

I've been playing a little with your dynamic data pre-release. Great for getting prototypes and things up and running quickly.

One question, though. Now that MS have released the VS2008 SP1 beta, have you got any plans to update the dynamic data pre-release to work with it?

Just curious.

Cheers Ian

I didn't know SP1 beta would break the pre-release code we have?

SP1 beta is a bit of a pain to install. I have it on one machine (laptop) for testing, but on our production machines, I don't want to install it, as it might break something. I was under the impression that the dynamic data code in sp1 beta was the latest?

Or is that older code? If not sure, please get the latest preview build from the codeplex site for dynamic data, that's the latest build they have made public (and likely newer than the sp1 code)

Yep, my mistake. The SP1 beta is not the most recent code version of dynamic data. Thanks.

I think I downloaded the latest build from http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/dynamicdata/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=1039, however I'm getting an error:

EnableQueryStringSelection is not a property of "DynamicDataManager".

When I remove the property, it loads fine, however upon selecting an entity type, I get the error:

"You need to have a DynamicManager control on the page and register your data control with it in order to use a DynamicControlParameter"... hmm puzzling on

Our code is indeed outdated with that new build, MS mailed me about this on Saturday. We'll release a new build very soon (probably tomorrow)

It just seemed the "Inherits" attribute of the PageTemplates didn't reference the correct namespace (this behavior is probably changed for Dynamic Data Websites with VS2008 SP1).

Thanks!

The latest build of dynamic data requires SP1 beta for vs.net 2008. I'll try on our testbox with 2008 SP1 if I can convert the code there (our dev boxes with vs.net 2008 don't run sp1 beta, nor will they do so, only RTM stuff).

I hope to have a compatible archive over the weekend, where I'll also try to see if I can build some support for dataservices, as that seems to be easy once linq support is covered.
