Hi Trent



Glad to help!



I also noticed that the pre/post primary key values are filled by accessing a DataRow, but the _DataLayer_AfterSave event looks at BusinessLayer objects. In my case with Oracle, I typically customize ID fields to return integers from the native decimal values. Therefore, the pre/post primary key values are stored as native decimal types (because that's what the datarow sees) . But, the fkValue coming through the BO is converted to an integer.



So, either get the pre/post primary key values from the datarow, and use datarows in _DataLayer_AfterSave or (vice versa) use values from the BusinessLayer.

Good find. I think that you may be on to something here. This should most likely have a test on types as the value does need to be determined (must be less than zero). I will look at this in the morning and see if I can come up with a test for you to try. Thanks.

Hi Trent



The problem is in the _DataLayer_AfterSave event as follows:







The fkValue of type long will not find a pre-save key value of type decimal.



Most likely the code should read something like as follows:







Hope this helps.

Sorry for the delay on this post I missed it.



Actually the type of the columns going into and out of the save collection as the same type. If you'll notice, the GetPostSavePrimaryKeyValue actually returns an object. There is no casting that takes place within the collection. Also, this should have nothing to do with the database. The logic here is not database dependent.



If you have not made any progress on this then I will need to get more details from you such as the database version, structure, and a small sample. There is something else in the mix here unrelated to the core workings of the framework.

I'm having trouble getting FK management working in an Oracle environment.



I notice that pre/post primary key value pairs are stored in the _PrimaryKeyPostPreSaveValues dictionary as decimals (which Oracle uses for all numeric values.) However, during the _DataLayer_AfterSave event, the procedure GetPostSavePrimaryKeyValue uses a Long value to look for the old PK value. Therefore, the old primary key value is not found, returning a null value.



Am I missing something?



Thanks!
