Editing with Silverlight

Question

Greetings,
I have been trying to get the editing example to work using the new ESRI SL 2.0 beta API, but I am having problems with the Feature Layer loading.  I have ArcGIS Server Enterprise 10 pre-release on one machine and ArcSDE 9.3.1 with MS SQL server 2008 on another machine.   I have created a Feature Service with point, line, and polygon feature classes defined in an mxd.  The Silverlight display comes up and loads a background layer, but the feature layer fails to initialize.  In visual studio, I set a breakpoint at the FeatureLayer_InitializationFailed method and it looks like one of the properties "isReadOnly" is set to "true".  I am guessing that my problem might be permissions between the SOC on the ArcGIS server machine and the ArcSDE, but I am not sure.  I have tried Granting edit permission to the SOC on the feature classes in SDE through ArcCatalog, but that seems to fail.  Am I on the right track here, or am I not seeing the light?

Thanks in advance for any help!
Charlie

Just a quick answer to one of your previous question : Looking more closely at the XAML code in the sample, there is an Int32 for the Button.CommandParameter for the Add Polygon. Just curious if this value is unique for this edit operation?

This Int32 is the feature type which is created by the 'Add' command (useful because the template picker is not used).
So I guess you have to adapt this value to your service.

Sorry I have no clue for your latest issues.

Although I had a clientaccesspolicy.xml file on our server, I discovered that the permissions were such that it was not being accessed from my development machine.  Using IIS 7 it was not enough to just open the permissions on that file, but we had to specifically add "Everyone" to the ACL for this file.  That solved our problem.

Yes, there are a number of supported operations at the bottom of the page including:  Query, Add Features, Update Features, Delete Features, Apply Edits.
When I click on the "Add Features" link it takes me to a page where I can presumably enter a feature and Add it.
