STE as Data Contract?

Question

Is there any way to share self tracking entities with client tier(from server tier wich is WCF) like Data Contract.
I mean, do not include any assembly with STE to client, just get them from server e.g.

If "DAL" is the service reference, I want some like:

DAL.SomeEntity = new DAL.SomeEntity();

Answer 1

Self tracking entities must be shared with client in form of code or assembly. That is the main requirement to use them because they are not just a contract they also contain logic responsible for change tracking and this logic cannot be shared with the client in any other form.
