My relationship between the parent and child is that they are connected by an edge. It is similiar to a directed graph structure.
DAL:
public void SaveResource(Resource resource)
{
context.AddToResources(resource); //Should also add children.
context.SaveChanges();
}
public Resource GetResource(int resourceId)
{
var resource = (from r in context.Resources
.Include("ToEdges").Include("FromEdges")
where r.ResourceId == resourceId
select r).SingleOrDefault();
return resource;
}
Service:
public void AddChildResource(int parentResourceId, Resource childResource)
{
Resource parentResource = repository.GetResource(parentResourceId);
ResourceEdge inEdge = new ResourceEdge();
inEdge.ToResource = childResource;
parentResource.ToEdges.Add(inEdge);
repository.SaveResource(parentResource);
}
Error: An object with the same key already exists in the ObjectStateManager. The existing object is in the Unchanged state. An object can only be added to the ObjectStateManager again if it is in the added state.
Image:
I have been told this is the sequence in submitting a child to an already existing parent:
Get parent -> Attach Child to parent -> submit parent.
That is the sequence I used. The code above is extracted from an ASP.NET MVC 2 application using the repository pattern.

Ah, it's actually very simple, once you think about it.. What you're trying to do it add the resource to the data context, even though this resource object was received from the database in the first place. So the error is not complaining about your child objects, but about your parent object! :)
Basically if you comment the first line in the SaveResource() method it should just work fine! E.g.:
public void SaveResource(Resource resource)
{
// context.AddToResources(resource); //Should also add children.
context.SaveChanges();
}
Or just move the AddChildResource method to your DAL:
public void AddChildResource(int parentResourceId, Resource childResource)
{
Resource parentResource = repository.GetResource(parentResourceId);
ResourceEdge inEdge = new ResourceEdge();
inEdge.ToResource = childResource;
parentResource.ToEdges.Add(inEdge);
context.SaveChanges();
}

Presumably it's complaining about the childResource not being in the added state. You added it to the edge object that is in the added state.
Can you try flipping the way you set that association round:-
public void AddChildResource(int parentResourceId, Resource childResource)
{
Resource parentResource = repository.GetResource(parentResourceId);
ResourceEdge inEdge = new ResourceEdge();
// inEdge.ToResource = childResource; <-- don't do this
parentResource.ToEdges.Add(inEdge);
childResource.FromEdges.Add(inEdge); // try this instead
repository.SaveResource(parentResource);
}
