Unlike some other frameworks, StrataFrame, uses a single business object type and I’m wondering what would be the best way handle the following situation where a read only object would be helpful.  Using the sample application I’m emulating a publisher/subscriber pattern using events.  On the OrderEntry form the CustomerBO would not normally be updated. However since I’ve added an event handler to display any changes to Customer made on the CustomerMaint form it does get updated and IsDirty is set to True. However I don’t want to save the changes, since they were already saved by the CustomerMaint form.  In CSLA I would have used a ReadOnly CustomerBO on the OrderEntry Form. One solution would be to add a ReadOnly property to the base BO so that IsDirty would not be set to True no matter what changes were made.
