The release version of CSLA .NET version 2.1.4 is now available for download from www.lhotka.net/cslanet/download.aspx.

This version addresses a set of ongoing issues with the CslaDataSource control for web development. Thanks to Andrés Villanueva, who put in a lot of work, the control is now able to find business types reliably as you rebuild your solution over time. Additionally, you can now put business classes directly in your web project and use them (though I don’t encourage this, as it breaks down good layering of your application).

Other than the changes to CslaDataSource, version 2.1.4 is documented by the CSLA .NET Version 2.1 Handbook available from http://store.lhotka.net, and of course by my Expert C# 2005 Business Objects and Expert VB 2005 Business Objects books.
