Problem with Business Object

[Aryan]

Hi,
I am implementing Business object, but while implementing this I
want to have DataTable or DataSet as part of Business Object. For
example, I want to bind controls directly to these Business Objects. So
please suggest me how can I achieve this??

Is is good to create a Property in Business Object which will have
return type as "DataTable / DataSet"?? or what could be the optimum way
to achieve the same.

Thanks & Regards,
Manoj Singh

Hi Monoj,

You do not need, nor should you expose a dataset/datatable as part of
the your business object. You don't need a Datatable to do binding.
You can bind directly to your business object or your business
collection with full support in Visual Studio 2005.

It might help to point him to the ObjectDataSource in the toolbox.

I'm not actually a fan of using this, I think it's a little primitive.

Other options you might want to consider are NHibernate or CSLA.NET

Hi,
Thanks for your help, I dont want to use any third party control for
the same. DataTable returned by DataAccess Layer by executing Stored
proc, So is there any way by which I can create Custom classes to
handle the datatable feature.

Thanks Again,
