Hi, I have last release of Guidance Automation Extensions ( June 2006 ).

It uses EntLib 2.0 :) , I have already to get familiar with EntLib 3.0 :/

What the questuion is: are there any patterns / automations / solutions that I could use in Business Logic project / Service Implementation project, so that operations within some scope would be transactional?

At the moment to solve that I have to modify methods signatures and pass them transaction obiects or use System.EnterpriseServices and decorate classes\methods with attributes and all that COM+ stuff.

I have also founded custom TransactionScope class ( on www.codeproject.com ) that creates transactional scopes by simulating .NET 2.0 TransactionScope class with use of ServiceConfig.

Will new ( I hope March 2007 CTP :) ) release support .NET 2.0 TransactionScope and EntLib 3.0 Data Access Application Block?

Thanks, Paweł

Hi Pawel,

These are all good questions... that should be posted to the Services Factory forum on codeplex where that team should respond to it :-)

Thanks for reproof :)

So the answer for my question is:

WSSF gets EntLib dll's from path that is stored in registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\patterns and practices\Service FactoryEntlibBinaryPath

In my release those are dll with version 2.0. If you change path to point to EntLib 3.0 dll's path, everything will work fine, and we can enjoy using TransactionScope with LTM ( of course only with SQL Server 2005 ).

Thanks,Paweł

Have you got any answer for this? I am looking for a solution for implementing transaction per repository class generated by

service factory auto generated classes

Hi Pawel,
It is a good catch... Could you please post this also on WSSF Forum on CodePlex.
All community can have benefits of using EL v3 instead of v2.
