Hi

I'm using:

LLBLGen 2.6 Final released October, 9, 2009. Adapter classes. VS2010 .Net 3.5

Is there any way to make an entity's WriteXml method not write the entire object graph recursively?

I'm trying to save an entity's XML in the AuditDeleteOfEntity method when deleting an entity. However, it's writing the XML for the entire object graph I fetched, instead of just the root entity.

Thank you!

That's not possible with the current framework code: it traverses over the complete graph. If you need this, you should write the method yourself. You can do that by copying the code from Entity2Xml in the entity base class to a method in a partial class of the generated code and call that method instead. You of course have to alter the code a bit so it won't traverse in entity collections and entity references.

The method is quite long as it otherwise would fragment across many methods which would have been used only once.

Hi Frans

Thank you for the advice. I will implement my own Entity2Xml then.

Kind regards
