ADO.NET :: Entity Framework: Getting Key Of Newly Inserted Entity?
Feb 3, 2011
Here's a simple code snippet where I create a new Entity object and call SaveChanges() to create a new record in the mapped database table.
[Code]....
What I'm trying to figure out is whether there is a way to derive this new key for my entity, e, from the ObjectContext, m? The reason for this is that the way my actual code is structured, my entity object is already out of scope at the point where I call the SaveChanges() method.

I am using below code to get new inserted ID in auto identity column from database.
[code]....
It's working fine when I connect my application with MS Sql, but if I connect with Mysql, it always returns 0 (zero).
Is there any other way to get last inserted ID using Entity Framework?

I've sucefully created a method to insert values through EF, but i've a question (maybe, a newbie question).
Should i send the values to be inserted as strings to the DAL, and then i create the object there or should i create the object in View Layer and then send him to DAL?
Example 1 (DAL):
[Code]....
Example 1 (View Layer, on a click button for example):
[Code]....
Or should i receive the strings in DAL like this: public bool NoticiasInsert(string tituloPT, string tituloEN, string descricaoPT, string descricaoEN)
Then i create the object cdcModel.noticias and set the fields there with the strings values.
What do you advice me to do? I know that both ways works, but i'm trying to develope with better patterns (i don't know if this is the exacly word, sorry my bad english)
cdcModel.noticias campos = new cdcModel.noticias();
campos.tituloPT = "a";
campos.tituloEN = "b";
campos.descricaoPT = "a";
campos.descricaoEN = "a";
if (DAL.NoticiasInsert(campos)

I have an EDM, it includes the entities extension and history. My goal is to use history to keep track of all the changes made to extension entity. For example, if extension with ID 223 has its property 'Name_Display' changed - I want the history entity to record this.
I'm using ASP.NET with VB.NET. Where in my code do I put the hook to say, "update the history entity" and what should that hook look like?

Is 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 get an cast exception when i am trying to insert an entity in Entity Framework (using code-first). From this code :
public virtual T Insert(T entity)
{
return Context.Set<T>().Add(entity);
}
The cast exception is like "impossible to cast ...Collection'1(Entity) to type (Entity)" I can't figure out why. I am pretty sure ive done everything right. Post entity
public class Post
{
public long PostId { get; private set; }
public DateTime date { get; set; }
[Required]
public string Subject { get; set; }
public User User { get; set; }
public Category Category { get; set; }
[Required]
public string Body { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Tag> Tags { get; private set; }
public Post()
{
Category = new Category();
if (Tags == null)
Tags = new Collection<Tag>();
}................................

I am mapping a stored procedure to an entity by right clicking on the entity (in the .edmx) and selecting "Stored Procedure Mapping." This brings you to a Mapping Details - "Name of Entity" Window that allows you to select the insert, update, and delete stored procedures associated with the Entity. It also maps the stored procedure parameter to the Entity "Property" (Column).
I'm gettin an error "error 2042: Parameter Mapping specified is not valid." The cause of the error is fairly obvious, in the Insert stored procedure that has been selected, a 'CHAR' parameter is being mapped to an Int32 Entity Property. I altered the stored procedure parameter to match the entity, I deleted the stored procedure, readded, and reslected it as the Insert function. I also cleaned, validated, updated model from database. No matter what I do, the parameter list in the mapping details doesn't reflect the change to the stored procedure. It's stuck on a char --> int32 mapping, even though it has been changed, like it's buried deep in meta data some where.

I have a stupid problem with the Entity Framework. I get the following Exception:
[Code]....
I have an entity with a 4 fields representing the primary key. I copy it via serialization (works fine). I set the old entity to not valid (Datefield set to a date in the past, this field is part of the PK) and set the copied entity to DateTime.Now.Date. When I call context.AddObject I get the Exception above. I tried copying the entity via reflection but the entity has 3-4 references. And when copied, I get another Exception before even Adding the entity to the context. I also tried setting newObj.EntityKey = null and reset all the fields neccessary for the PK. I just want a whole copy of an entity with a different primary key (and some other fields changed too) and Create it in the database.

I have an Events table and an InstallmentPlans table. The relationship is 0..1 : an Event can have 0 or 1 Installment plans. If I want to remove the existing InstallmentPlan for an event, how do I do this? Setting it to null doesn't seem to work:
_event.InstallmentPlan = null;

I've been trying to learn about the entity framework. I plan on using it in a rewrite of a site I'm doing.But everything I can find on it is on the 3.5 framework and they all mention that there will be changes in 4.0. Does anyone know of a good article, video series, and or tutorial on the entity framework in 4.0?I've worked a lot with Linq to Sql, so I don't think I'll have too much trouble working with the entity framework, but I'd like to learn more about the current version.

I have 3 tables in the database, with a Many to Many relationship:
Assessment(assessID, userID, A, B, C)Grade(gradeID, scoreA, scoreB, scoreC)AssessmentGrade(assessID, gradeID) [PK and FK]I can already Insert into the Assessment AND Grade tables without any problems.I cannot seem to figure out how to Insert into the AssessmentGrade table. There is no separate Entity, because there is only the PK/FK in the AssessmentGrade. I have looked at some tutorials, but none of them seem to address my situation.

Im working on a greenfield project and have to make a decision on the technology we'll use for the data access layer. Ive used LINQ to SQL for a few years and am happy and comfortable with this, but now with entity framework available this is another method to consider. Are there any pitfalls using entity framework as opposed to LINQ to SQL ? Ive read that there are performance issues with entity framework, is this true? Id really like to get an overall feel for using one method over the other, anyone have any thoughts/comments/recomendations?
