Remarks

The ApplyCurrentValues method is used to apply property changes from a modified, detached version of an object to the original version attached to the ObjectContext. This supports scenarios, such as Web services, where an entity object is detached and sent to a remote application where property updates are made. This method enables you to more easily apply these changes back to the original object.

After ApplyCurrentValues, the object is in the Modified state. You must call the SaveChanges method to update the data source.

The original object must exist in the ObjectStateManager and must be in the Modified or Unchanged state. The original object is only modified if there are modified properties in the changed object.

The EntityKey property of the supplied object must be set to a valid EntityKey.

ApplyCurrentValues does not affect navigation properties or related objects.

ApplyCurrentValues only sets properties that exist in the entity metadata for the type. For example, properties that are added in a partial class are not included in the ApplyCurrentValues operation.
