Question

I am creating a WPF app that needs to allow users to work in a temporary disconnected state and I plan to use a Local Database Cache.

My question’s are about my data access layer.

• Do you typically create the whole DAL
  to point at the Cache or both and
  create a switching mechanism?

• Is Entity’s a good way to go for my
  DAL against the Cache?

• I am used to L2S but my understanding
  is that I can’t use that against
  SQLCE, correct?

Thanks!

PS: Any good resources out there for using Sync, Linq, and WPF ALL TOGETHER? Tutorials, videos, etc?

Answer 1

You might be interested in the Microsoft Sync Framework or at least some of the resources and examples.
