Entity Framework transaction scope examples

I just posted examples on how to use transaction scopes with entity framework on my programming interviews blog.

In this post, I cover three cases in which transaction scope is being used to show rollback when an error occurs during an update of multiple entities:

1. when you have multiple save calls to the context;
2. when you have single save with multiple object; and
3. transactions across multiple contexts.

Check it out and share your feedback.

  Hello! Couldn't you also try to show how to flow a transaction in and use it inside an asynchronous WCF activity, please? Best regards, Henrik Dahl
