Short Description:
Developing my Silverlight based dbschema tool I needed a way to
let the users store their changes locally (e.g. internet connection is lost… save my changes somewhere please !),
of course SL runs on a sandbox and in version 2 you cannot make a "save as" on a local computer (on version 3 yes),
I could use some sort of javascript / server side custom http handler to work around it but sound to me like
something crappy… then I found info about the Isolated Storage, cool stuff !!
As soon as I finished with my development I uploaded the changes and checked that the local
save worked pretty well, so far so god, but somedays after that I just uploaded a new version
of the application (a minor change, updating the size of some controls) and I realized that…
MY FILES SAVED UNDER THE ISOLATED STORAGE WHERE GONE !!! AAAAGHHH !!!!
