Strongly-Typed ASP.NET MVC with Entity Framework

Question

This code fails to actually save any changes:

//
// POST: /SomeType/Edit/5

[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
public ActionResult Edit(Guid id, SomeType Model)
{         


        

Answer 1

What happens if you add one line:

[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
public ActionResult Edit(Guid id, SomeType Model)
{
    db.AttachTo(Model.GetType().Name, Model);
    Model.SomeProperty = Model.SomeProperty; // This looks hacky... =(
    db.ApplyPropertyChanges(Model.EntityKey.EntitySetName, Model);
    db.SaveChanges();
    return RedirectToAction("Index");
}

Does the state change?
