Hi Malcolm,
You can traverse an object graph using ClassDescriptor with a custom
PropertyVisitor. For instance DataContext.registerNewObject(..)
implements a similar algorithm for the NEW objects.

Hi All,
I am currently having problems integrating Flex Data Services with
Cayenne.
With the Flex 2 design patterns, I have a corresponding ActionScript
DataObject on the client, with is then converted into a Cayenne
DataObject using reflection by some Flex serialization libraries.
Creating new objects works fine, but when I try and update existing
objects I run into troubles. Flex will provide me with an graph of
Cayenne DataObjects which have an ID, and a corresponding record in
the database, but are not registered with the DataContext.
Do you have any ideas how I could work around this issue. I dont mind
hacking the Cayenne library to address this issue.
