What does "Unable to case object of type "DM.Library.Programs" to type "System.ComponentModel.Component"



Programs is a BO built by the mapper.



Thank you.

All business objects are inherited from MarshalByValueComponent and cannot be typed as a Component.  Since implicit type conversions are not allowed you will have to type the reference to prevent the error.  Regardless, you cannot type a business object as a Component since it inherits from MarshalByValuComponent.

If you're trying to reference it at a System.ComponentModel.Component, then you'll need to change you're reference to a System.ComponentModel.IComponent, since that's what is used by both Component and MarshalByValueComponent.

The point of the question is that I didn't make any reference to component anything. I just created a bo from the SFBO template and populated it with the mapper and then got this error.

I'll check through the BOMapper and the Extensibility solution to make sure we're not referencing it as a System.ComponentModel.Component.  Thanks for the heads up.
