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);
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 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
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 have the following code
Customer currentCustomer = new Customer();
when i do currentCustomer. In the drop down I can see all the columns listed except one column which is a foriegn key from order table , how do i insert into intorder_fk
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 1 RepliesI 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)

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

I'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'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 RepliesI 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.
I ahve two tables each with a primary key. There is a lookup table in between the two tables with relationships. Below is a simplified look at the table structure
Table 'Product'
Column ProductPK int (Primary Key)
Table 'County'
Column CountyID int (primary key)
Table Product_County_Lookup
Column ProductPK int (Joint Primary Key)
Column CountyID int (joint primary key)
I already have the ProductPK and CountyID. What is the correct LINQ statement to insert into Product_County_Lookup table ONLY?
the problem is that it will insert a new record in a mysql table, I have already done the mapping of the mysql db and I have already done tests returning data and everything works. Now I read from a file, where there are queries written, I have them run me back and the result of true or false based on the final outcome of single query written to the file. Txt; I did this:
using (var w = new demotestEntities ())
(
foreach (var l listaqueri)
(
var p = we.CreateQuery <category> (l);
we.SaveChanges ();
result = true;
)
)
but it does not work, I sense that it returns no errors, but neither the result given written in the query. txt file is as follows: INSERT INTO category (id, name) VALUES (null, 'test2')

View 2 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.
