I'm trying to create a one-to-one association via the designer, but an exception is thrown when I try to use the entities via code: "Circular associations are not supported by LightSpeed". This occurs even in the most simple case where I have two entities and a single one-to-one associated between them. What am I missing? Thanks! |

This was a bug in the RTM version of the designer. It is fixed in the current nightly builds, which you can get from http://www.mindscape.co.nz/Products/LightSpeed/nightlybuilds.aspx (Express edition) or the store (Standard or higher editions). Let us know if you still see problems. |

The nightly build indeed fixed the problem. Thanks! --schwegs |

Hi Guys, I'm experiencing the same problem, but the warning on the Nightly Builds page (not fully tested, bla bla) scared me off a bit. Is it save to use this build (20080724) or is there an intermediate stable build that I can use instead, which has this fix? Thanks, |

At the risk of these being Famous Last Words, we have a pretty good record with our nightlies (and at quickly fixing issues that do slip through). Nightlies do go through our full automated test suite, so we have extremely high confidence that they will not give you bad results or damage your data. In that sense they are safe to use. What nightlies don't have is people actively looking for edge cases in new code (that we may not have realised we need to test for), and they also get only very basic installation testing (most of the tests run against the build, not against an installation, so they might not detect if we had forgotten to add a new DLL to the install script). Therefore the main risks are (1) if you're grabbing a nightly for a new feature, it may have bugs or rough edges and (2) it might simply not work at all due to an installation issue, so make sure you keep a "known good" version handy to revert to. I know one of our other projects has been using recent nightly builds so that further increases my confidence that the current nightlies are in a good state. My advice would be to grab the currently nightly, use it in your development environment and be prepared to back it out (and let us know please!) if you observe any major problems. We don't have intermediate stable builds, I'm afraid. |

Hi Ivan, As always a superfast response. Since I've had nothing but good experiences with your company, support and product, I'll give it a go. Will have to get our system admin to download the latest build, since I don't have the username/password of the account used to purchase Lightspeed, but that shouldn't be a problem. Thanks, Robert |
