Assembly: System.Data.Services.Client (in System.Data.Services.Client.dll)
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Source | A source entity in a link returned by a DataServiceResponse. |
| SourceProperty | The identifier property of the source entity in a link returned by a DataServiceResponse. |
| State | When overridden in a derived class, gets the state of the object at the time this instance was constructed.(Inherited from Descriptor.) |
| Target | The source entity in a link returned by a DataServiceResponse. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Equals(Object^) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode() | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |

The SaveChanges method returns a DataServiceResponse object that contains a series of OperationResponse objects, each of which contains a sequence of EntityDescriptor or LinkDescriptor instances that represent persisted changes.
For successful operations, the P:System.Data.Services.Client.EntityDescriptor.State property of the descriptor is set to unchanged and the new values for insert and update operations are merged according to the merge settings.
For operations with errors, the P:System.Data.Services.Client.EntityDescriptor.State of the descriptor will remain the same as they were before SaveChanges was called.
If an error occurred and processing stopped during an operation, the P:System.Data.Services.Client.EntityDescriptor.State will remain unchanged.
