MVC :: Entity Framework Class - DisplayFormat Not Working

Nov 2, 2010

I have a simple entity framework class called "NewsItem" which has 3 properties: Id, PostDate and DescriptionText. To format the postdate property I created a partial class as the following:

[Code]....

This seems to be the way Microsoft has outlined doing it in this link: [URL] It seems as thought he partial class isn't being "picked up" in relation to my entity object as none of the formatting I've tried has done anything. Any ideas on what I've done wrong or might have missed?

Exporting Entity Framework 4 Data Model To Entity Framework 3.5?

Oct 25, 2010

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.

Entity Framework -Update Entity When Another Entity Is Updated

Jun 30, 2010

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?

Cast Exception When Try To Insert Entity In Entity Framework (using Code-f)

ADO.NET :: Entity Framework - Entity Stored Procedure Mapping - Can't Update

Feb 10, 2011

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.

ADO.NET :: Entity Framework Copy Entity And Change PK And Save Old And New

Mar 31, 2011

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.

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.

MVC :: Validate Entity With List?

Apr 27, 2010

Let's say we have a entity to add - an Invoice with multiple Lines

public class Lines
{
public string ObjectName;
public string Color;
}
public class Invoice
{
public string DocumentID;
public DateTime InvoiceDate;
public List<Lines> lines;
public string Observation;
}

The Lines is valid if and only if it has ObjectName and Color

Now, when in AddMode , the requirements are to show enter a new Invoice with 10 Lines by default .

This was easy (binding to an object that contains list, right?) - but in validation mode, the ModelState.IsValid is validating all my 10 lines - regardless if the user have been entered only 2 lines.

I have tried to remove the empty lines by writing a Binder for Invoice, inheriting from DefaultModelBinder and removing the empty lines ( those for ObjectName AND Color both nulls or empty ) .But, no matter what overriding method (CreateModel , BindModel ) I have used , no success. The binding model occurs first.

I have tried to do ModelState.Clear() and ValidateModel(invoice) in the controller. But ValidateModel is not validating "sub-properties of complex properties" - see comments from

[URL]

If you know how to either :

a) re-validate all properties (including for complex object)

b) modifying the model before ModelState grab errors

c) ?

(I can not debug with MVC2 source code - but this is another post...)

Forms Data Controls :: Validate A Dynamically Generated Textbox In A Gridview's Cell?

Jan 28, 2010

I have a gridview each line has 4 linkbuttons - Edit , Update , Cancel , Delete and a few columns with data...For example TeamName and TeamEmail, and a hidden column that contains a validator (for ease of validating controls that are found on the same row , same naming container)

When Edit button is Clicked , the specific line goes into editing mode , Texboxes are created for TeamName and for TeamEmail .

I create dinamically (code behind ) a new textbox that reads the value from the TeamEmail textbox , i give it a new id (let's say "Email") , add that email to the controltovalidate property of my validator , and call the validate() method of the validator.

Everything works fine when i modify the value in a worng format , the validator err message appears , when i modify the TeamEmail value to a good email format , the validator property isvalid becomes true , and the update is running , but my textbox is empty :( updating the TeamEmail value to null.

This is some bad code but hope you understand what i meant :

This is my html coed of my gridview

[Code]....

This is the code that manages the validation:

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.
