It would appear that the recent updates still do not resolve the issue of Return Alternate on Null / Set Alternate Null as well as issues with Business objects having the same name as other business objects in a different project in the same solution



Just wondering where we are on this. Ben Chase gave me a 'patch' for the Return Alternate (ref type) but with the recent upgrade that patch is no longer valid.

Ben,

Ben Chase is on vacation until next Wednesday and to my knowledge this should have been in the 1.6.1 build.  So I will make sure that he takes a look at this when he gets back.  This will probably be easier than me trying to forensically determine if something was done in Team Foundation, etc.  In any case, we will get you an answer next week.  Sorry for the delay.

<< GASP >> ... you all take vacations!!!!





Good for him.

LOL...yeah, can you beleive that   The nerve....it's my turn next

Thanks. No rush. Everyone needs vacations...(hope my boss reads this)

Hehe, well, I'm back from vacation (though Trent just swapped, so he won't be back until after Labor Day...) and it looks like it should have been fixed, but it wasn't.  So, here's the DLLs with the fix.  I've tested them with all of the combinations that I could think of, so let me know how they work out.  Also, Ben, it fixes the other problem with the BOMapper getting confused between business objects with the same name.  Turns out that problem was because the EnvDTE.Solution interface's FindProjectItem() was returning the first one that it found.  So, when you built the partial class for the second one, it overwrote the contents of the first file, not the second file.  Had to change it up and a little hocus pocus to find the right file.  Let me know if it fixes that issue, too.

Thanks much Ben!...this will save me a lot of time!

I'm sure I'm just totally missing something, but when I click on the attachment link it just takes me to the main page of the forum.  The address is forum.strataframe.net/Attachment531.aspx but when it resolves it just goes to forum.strataframe.net.  Am I doing something wrong or is the attachment no longer valid?

OK, maybe I just had to be a part of this post's thread.  Once I added a reply to the post, I was able to download the file.  Don't know why for sure, but I got it now....

Hehe, that's weird Andria.  It might have just been that you're session had expired, and when you posted you were able to login again.  I don't think we allow attachments to be viewed by anonymous users... so, if you're session had expired, the security would have blocked you.

Oh well, glad you got it
