When I b...
I am about to start a new project. Using VS2010, Silverlight 4, and RIA Services are a given. However, due to the web server we have available, there is some question of whether we can use .NET 4 or whether we will have to stick to .NET 3.5. I know that RIA Services can work with .NET 3.5. But what I'm curious about is whether there ...

We have an Entity Framework model that is used by two different silverlight applications. The validation rules are very similar in the two contexts, but differ slightly. For example, a regular user in one of the applications cannot input time that is in the future, but an administrator in the other application can put time that is in...
I've got a Silverlight application that will be running out on the open internet, available to basically everyone who has ever lived. The application makes use of RIA Services to manipulate data in a database on the server. The application creates, reads, updates, and deletes data of different varieties, however I only want these oper...
This is more of a question about best pattern and practice than asking about any one particular method. We have app that is heavily reliant on dates and times and is hosted in the US. Sometimes it needs to perform actions based on those values, like emailing out reminders and expiring "single-use" session tokens. However there are clien...
We have a Silverlight 4 client connecting to RIA services. It's based on the standard "Business Application" Silverlight application in VS 2010. The objects we send to the client over RIA services are EF 4 entities that are POCO objects generated from our edmx by T4. Our RIA service is a LinqToEntitiesDomainService<> of our linq reposito...
So I have been twiddling with a personal project to import my garmin gps data into a local database. The data lives in a GPX xml file, whose schema is defined by an xsd file. The idea is for the client to upload their GPX file, and the SL client would validate it before sending it to the server. But I ran into some issues here, first ...

I have a Silverlight 4 app using RIA Services in which I moved all of the RIA Services-specific code to a separate module (a WCF RIA Services class library) called "AppServices". Let's call the main app "Silverlight4App". I need to authenticate the users against a different database than the database where the rest of the data is stored....
I have a DomainService with a few methods. One has a return type of string and no parameter: public string MyMethod1() { } I can call this one from Silverlight. One has a return type of void, and a parameter that is a domain object (I am using LinqToSqlDomainService and this object is part of the DataContext): public void MyMethod2...
I need to inform the DomainContext in the silverlight application about changes that are made on the serverside (aka. Model of the DomainService). Does the DomainService or other classes for RIA Services provide such notification (like Events) or do i have to call a method on the DomainService periodically to check if changes where made...
