I developed and entity framework (.edmx) application in 4.0 in that i got all the data of my querying table and its foreign key referenced tables data also. but when i change my project to 3.5 i am unable to get the data of foreign key referenced tables data.
View 2 RepliesAdding data into kartlar table (RehberID,KampanyaID,BrimID) is ok. But which Kart'ID created? I need to learn which Id created after adding data (RehberID,KampanyaID,BrimID) into Kartlar?
[code]...
How can I do that? I want to get data from Kartlar which data I added?
i'll make a simple website. in my website i have two kind of products to sell
1. Projects
2. Documents
These Tables are available in my database :
[code]...
now i will make an order table. should i make differentt order table?
or i could save order information of both tables in one table?
1 - Is it necessary to have foreign key to obtain a Relation in Entity Framework between each entity.?
2 - I have a Language Table and many many table with a foreign key related to the language table. Is it right to add this foreign key or I should do something else ?
Ex:
Language
LangID
LangName
TableTextA
TblAID
TextInfo
LangID
TableTextB
TblBID
TextInfo
LangID
TableTextC
TblCID
TextInfo
LangID
etc ...
How can I give set foreign key value field in Entity Framework. I have Kartlar entity (related from kartlar table). I need simple save method this field but, RehberID, KAmpanyaId,BirimID is foregin Key....
public static class SatisServicesUpdateTables
{
public static void SaveKartlar(int RehberID, int KampanyaID, int BrimID)
{
using (GenSatisModuleEntities genSatisKampanyaCtx = new GenSatisModuleEntities())
{
Kartlar kartlar = new Kartlar();
kartlar.RehberReference.EntityKey = new System.Data.EntityKey("genSatisKampanyaCtx.Rehber", "ID", RehberID);
kartlar.KampanyaReference.EntityKey = new System.Data.EntityKey("genSatisKampanyaCtx.Kampanya", "ID", KampanyaID);
kartlar.BirimReference.EntityKey = new System.Data.EntityKey("genSatisKampanyaCtx.Birim", "ID", BrimID);
kartlar.Notlar = "hfhfhfhfhfhfghfghfgfghk";
genSatisKampanyaCtx.AddToKartlar(kartlar);
genSatisKampanyaCtx.SaveChanges();
}
}
}
But it throws to me : ArgumentException was unhandled by user code link text
I have a gridview displaying "registrationtype id" (FK) from the registration table. I want it to display the related name instead of the id from the registartiontype table.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to insert a new EF object containing a reference to a related table via foreign key, and cannot get the reference stored in the new object. I have two tables in a SQL Server 2008 Database:
Component Templates
PartGroups
with a Foreign Key linking them thus: ComponentTemplates:ID [0..1<->*] PartGroups:ComponentTemplateID
I have imported these tables into a .NET web application project .edmx file (using a new ADO.NET Entity Data Model), and then created a Data Service which I then reference in a Silverlight 3.0 project. The objects are available as expected in the data context called by my Silverlight app and load correctly. Now, when I try to save a reference of ComponentTemplate into a newly created PartGroup, the PartGroup object is created in the database, but the value of ComponentTemplateID in the newly created table record is NULL.
[Code]....
(Note that _ctCtrl.ComponentTemplate is a confirmed non-NULL object reference to the parent object on which PartGroup is a child)
I m try to insert record to table, its working well without foreignkey using Entity model. But i need to insert foreign key. I used the following query, its not working well via Entity model.
objFacility.FacilityCategoryReference.EntityKey =
new System.Data.EntityKey("testEntities.test",
"id", 10);
how to handle foreign keys with Entity Framework, when editing or adding a new record. For example, I have a person table, which has a timezone_id linking to my timezone table.
But the model seems to not include timezone_id. I see it's a new way of doing things, but ... how do I store my record?
My method:
[code]...
I can't do u.timezone_id = timezoneid;
I only have u.timezone (which seems to be the actual entity), and u.timezoneReference, which I am not sure what to do with.
I have 2 tables Departments {ID, DeptCode (PK), SubDeptCode (PK)} and Employee {ID, Name (PK), DeptID (PK & FK to ID in Deparments)}.
Both ID fields are declare as UNIQUE and incremental identity. It works fine in sql server 2000 but EF won't map the relation in my app.
I am new to Entity Framework and working my way through it little by little. I think I have it figured out on how to get data into and out of 1 table at a time now the challenge is 2 tables into a gridview.
I have a user table that has a list of threads that a user can mark to track. Easy enough. Assign the userid number & threadid to a table with a push button while the user is logged in and viewing any of the posts that are on that thread. The new challange is to get only the posts that the user has marked to track. SQL easy. Entity not sure what to do.
If I make a view or stored procedure and add it to the database that would be an extra step. To join the 2 tables as in sql Select posts from posts where track.userid = @userid join track on post.userid=track.userid Seems Entity was made to avoid this type of thing. Than once the data is gathered I need to bind it to a gridview()
I have two tabels as mentioned below. I am using entity framework and vs2010.I am not able to write linq query to get data from both the tables. there is one to many relationship(for one category ther can be multiple articles).
View 1 RepliesI need to dynamically access some SQL tables hopefully using the Entity Framework. Here's some pseudo code:
var Account = DB.Accounts.SingleOrDefault(x => x.ID == 12345);
which will return me an Account object and this contains some fields called "PREFIX", "CAMPAIGN ID" and further information about the accounts are stored in separate SQL tables with the naming convention of PREFIX_CAMPAIGNID_MAIN.
The tables all have the same fields so I was thinking of creating a new Entity that isn't mapped anywhere and then dynamically loading it, like so:
var STA01_MAIN = new MyAccount(); // my "un-mapped" entity
DB.LoadTable('STA01_MAIN').LoadInto(STA01_MAIN);
I can now get anything about the STA01_MAIN account: STA01_MAIN.AccountId. So my question is: how do I access these tables using the Entity Framework?
I have a question about Entity Framework. answer if you know answer on this. I have such query :
[Code]....
Particularly I want to join few tables in one query, but I can NOT use LINQ and can NOT use ObjectQuery with objects mapped to DB fields inside my query. Because each entity creates dynamically. So this is what i
can NOT use : [URL]
The question is can I use something like this instead of using objects?
[Code]....
The purpose is to use Join method of ObjectQuery with syntax as in Where method :[URL]
A relative newcomer to .net MVC2 and the entity framework, I am working on a project which requires a single web application, (C# .net 4), to connect to multiple different databases depending on the route of access, (ie subdomain).
No problem with this in principle and all the logic is written to transform the subdomain into an entity connection and pass this through to the Entity Model.
The problem comes with the fact that the different database whilst being largely similar in structure contain 3 or 4 unique tables bespoke to that instance.
To my mind there are two ways to solve this issue, neither of which i am sure will be possible.
1/ Use a separate entity model for each database. -Attempts down this route have through up conflicts where table/sp names are the same across differnt db's, or implicit conversion errors when I try and put the different models in different namespaces. or
2/ Overwrite the classes which refer to the changeable database objects based on the value of a base controller property.
My question is if either of theser routes can ever work in principle or if i should just give up on the EF and connect to the dtabases directlky using ADO. Perhaps there is another way to solve this problem i haven't thought of?
I have created a .edmx for the northwind database. When I run the following statement, the correct number of detail records are retrieved and I can access the detail fields, but how do I access the order header record to view OrderDate, ShipAddress, etc...?

I am working with VS 2010, Entity framework, SQl-Server 2005, ASP.Net web forms. Currently, I am working on the Data access layer library which soon will be a web service, using Entity Framework collaboration with different design patterns like repository pattern and some best practices that posts in different blogs. I am also test each repository using the Unit testing project. Thumbs up! Working fine.
The thing I am worried about is, how much is good for retrieving data from a table that can contain 80-100k records ?
I've created a new ASP.NET website. I've generated an Entity Data Model from my database and have dropped a entitydatasource and gridview onto my page and wired up the gridview to pull from the entitydatasource. Now I get columns like this: id extension prefix did_flag len ten_id restriction_class_id sfc_id name_display building_id floor room phone_id department_id
In each case where the item is named something_id this reflects a foreign key relationship in the database - and I did choose to have the EDM expose foreign key relationships. I'd like to make it so the gridview pulls in the values for these foreign keys rather than just showing the ID numbers - so, for example, department_id might have a value of "101" right now but it should pull from the department table "Marketing".
Does ADO.Net Entity Framework 3.5 support Composite Foreign key/Composite primary key?
View 5 RepliesIs there a way to export a EF 4.0 Data Model to EF 3.5?
I looked around and found that we are not able to access EF 4.0 from a ASP.Net 3.5 project here: [URL]
Our project is the 1st to go to .Net 4.0 using Entity Framework and we (the team) were wondering if there was a way for the other projects that "might" need to access our data that are still using the .Net 3.5 framework.
I created two stored procedures in SQL Server Management Studio.
First procedure add field in ProjcetsToUsers table (for many-to-many associations)
[code]....
I can delete the user from the project and then add another, and the new one is added but removed the remains.
As for data base both this function work correctly.
In an MVC view, I'm looking for a way to determine if a parent entity's collection of child entities is empty, so I can decide if I need to call a RenderPartial() or not.
For a one-to-one I've been using the following:
<% if (Model.Book.GenreReference.EntityKey != null) %>
{.....}
but I'm unsure how to do it in a one-to-many scenario, or if it can even be done without the use of Include() or Load().
I am trying to add a new entity and have to refernce associated data to add it. I cannot load the Referencetables. Giving "The EntityReference could not be loaded because it is not attached to an ObjectContext." How do i complete this task in Entity Framework 3.5

I am using Entity Frameowrk as the ORM. I am new to MVC and trying to develop a samll module as a learning project.
Now I am stuck with an issue for which I can't seem to find out answer on web. The issue is :
I have two tables mapped as entities - Tenant_Definition and Contact
Tenant_Definition { Tenant_ID , Desc, Contact_ID}
Contact {Contact_ID, Company_Name,Company_Address,Person_Name, Person_Phone_Mobile}
My View has to present a form that shows Tenant Desc and Contact related fields. The index view works fine and shows the desired values.
But, the create view isn't working out. In the create view, i am planning to do -
1. creating a new contact entity instance and saving it in db
2. Then creating a new tenant entity instance using the new contact_id and save it to the DB.
However, the code doesn't seem to be inserting any value inside Contacts table. It inserts null value.Below is the code snippet of my Create Controller -
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Create(FormCollection collection)
{
var newContact = new Contact();[code]....
I am new to entity framework , it is really very good , but I want to know what is the difference between using entity framework with stored procedure or without stored procedure , which one the faster and what is the benefits for using stored procedures with entity framework.
