Remarks

This exception is thrown by SubmitChanges() when it detects a concurrency conflict. Your code should always catch and resolve the discrepancies. For more information about resolution of conflicts, see How to: Write to Lists Using LINQ to SharePoint.

Examples

The following is a simple example of catching the exception and resolving the discrepancies.

foreach (TeamMember teamMember in teamSite.TeamMembers)
{
    teamMember.TopTask = "Fiscal Planning";
}

try 
{
    teamSite.SubmitChanges();
}
catch (ChangeConflictException e) 
{
    teamSite.ChangeConflicts.ResolveAll();
    teamSite.SubmitChanges();
}
For Each teamMember As TeamMember In teamSite.TeamMembers
    teamMember.TopTask = "Fiscal Planning"
Next teamMember

Try
    teamSite.SubmitChanges()
Catch e As ChangeConflictException
    teamSite.ChangeConflicts.ResolveAll()
    teamSite.SubmitChanges()
End Try
