Hi,

I have an i IList<IEntity2> of entities. Is there a way to sort the list, based on Relation dependency.

I explain a little more

CustomerEntity OrderEntity OrderDetailEntity

OrderEntity has a relation m : 1 with CustomerEntity OrderDetailEntityhas a relation m : 1 with OrderEntity

in my IList<IEntity2> there are:

index 0: OrderEntity index 1: CustomerEntity index 2: OrderDetailEntity

I want to sort this list based on related entity, that will be:

index 0: OrderDetailEntity index 1: OrderEntity index 2: CustomerEntity

I want to sort the list as LLBL do in save process. I think that this mecchanism is built on ObjectGraphUtils, but this class is not documented.

I need this sorted list for transmit my entities over WCF, properly sorted.

LLBLGenPro 2.6 Adapter

thank you

Hi Davide,

Are the entities in list related to each other? f.i., that customer is referenced by the order and the orderDetail references order.

Why do you need to send them sorted that way?

Yes, the entities are related.

because it is a kind of sync and replication system for disconnected data, so when on other side f.i. I receive on OrderEntity, I need know that other related data has been sent previously, so i can perform saving, updating, etc..

You said you have a IList<IEntity2>, how you end up with that? Do you have the root entity/collection with all graph. For example, you have the customer, and its customer.Order, so on?

If so, I think you can do this:

ObjectGraphUtils ogu = new ObjectGraphUtils();
List<IEntity2> orderedList = ogu.ProduceTopologyOrderedList(customer);
orderedList.Reverse();
