MVC :: Build Model Around Entity SQL?

Mar 15, 2010

I want to build my Model around Entity SQL. I'm pretty comfortable with writing SQL queries hence my choice for using entity SQL.

In my model i have this:

namespace Model
{
public class Person
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public string SecondName { get; set; }
public int Age { get; set; }
public DateTime DOB { get; set; }
public void Save()
{
//to do
}
public List<Keyword> GetKeywords()
{
//get data from entity
DBEntities context = new DBEntities();
string sql = "SELECT * from Keyword";
EntityCommand cmd = new EntityCommand(sql);
return ;
}
}
}

how do I execute entity SQL comment?

how can i return a list that is returned from this query?

if i have different classes that need access to DB would I always have to specify "DBEntities context = new DBEntities();" or is there a better way so that all my classes have this configured?

MVC :: Using Data From Multiple Entity Framework4 Model Entity Objects In MVC2 Controller?

Sep 29, 2010

getting data from multiple Entities models into an MVC controller. Most of the examples I have seen for using EF in an MVC2 app only use a single entitiy.

I have just started using MVC2 in C# using the Entity Framework models (CIOps.model) created from an SQL database. I can create the controller and views using single tables of the model in MVC2, but I just cannot get my head around how to get data from multiple entity tables into the controller (similar to joins in T-SQL). I have included an example below of the controller code that works with a single entity table, tbl_tours (tbl_tour in DB).

Could someone please illustrate how this code would be changed to include additional columns from FK tables in addition to tbl_tours columns. E.g. the clients name from the tbl_clients, the coordinators name from the tbl_employees, and costs from tbl_costs entities? Is it possible to do this directly using the EF model entities/classes that are already created and not use LINQ, POCO, Repositories, etc.? The FK relationships are already in the EF models. I have included the whole controller code, but I just need a few examples of how to join the multiple entities, not rewrite every CRUD function function in the controller. I think this will get me over the hump in using EF in an MVC2 App. Also ignore the fact I am using the home controller, this will change in the application.

ADO.NET :: Entity Model - Update Model From DB And The Assembly Reference Seems To Be Missing?

Jan 10, 2011

I made a few changes to the DB in SQL server management studio then right clicked on the .edmx doc to get it to update. That seemed to work fine but when i compiled the app everything that referenced the EF seems to be broken.The Error list now contains the below error for all classes that used it.

The type or namespace name '' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

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.

ADO.NET :: Entity Data Model - How To Use

Feb 16, 2011

I program in ASP.NET for a while now. My applications uses always the DataSet. Some told me that Entity Data Model is the DataSet for LINQ. Now I want to try to working with it I have some questions but can't find the answers. I hope someone can. When I build an application I use the 3-tier structure. So Presentation-layer, Business-layer and the Data-layer. Normally I had some classes in the Data layer with specific methods to interact with the DataSet. When I read the table or something I create an object for the business layer.

With the Entity Data Model it seems a little bit confusing. If I read a table (for example Company) the edmx has created an class already. So is the edmx a replacement for the Data-layer and also for the Business layer? Is the edmx also a good use for multi-user application or is a connected application better?

MVC :: Possible Model Not Based On An Entity Framework

Jun 11, 2010

There are some tutorials explaining how to create a Model based on Linq to Sql or The Ms Entity Framework. Can I use my custom code for a model? If we have the controller with the code :

[Code]....

This returns a List<Movie> to the view that knows what to do with it. Is it possible that I create a method called MovieSet that returns a List<Movie> using a sql qry or a stored procedure call without the creation of an Object for this purpose ? Or do I need a Movie object? Lets say that I just to do my query, loading data into a dataTable and load that data to a list of movie objects. Because the code created by the Entity Framerwork is too big for a quick reading.

Share Entity Data Model Amongst Layers?

May 17, 2010

How can I share the auto-generated entity data model (generated object classes) amongst all layers of my C# web app whilst only granting query access in the data layer? This uses the typical 3 layer approach: data, business, presentation.

My data layer returns an IEnumerable<T> to my business layer, but I cannot return type T to the presentation layer because I do not want the presentation layer to know of the existence of the data layer - which is where the entity framework auto-generated my classes.

It was recommended to have a seperate layer with just the data model, but I'm unsure how to seperate the data model from the query functionality the entity framework provides.

Creating A View And Updating An Entity Model?

Mar 13, 2011

EDIT: This question is vague and will likely be of little use to anyone. I am awarding internet monies to the gentleman below whom "helped" me.Sorry that the title is a little vague. I am still new to asp mvc & EF. Here is my issue. I have a DB somewhat like this.

Employee
- ID
- Name
- Address
EmployeeJob
- EmployeeID
- JobID
- StartDate
JobTypes
- ID
- JobName

I want a create form that will show all the Employee fields as well as a list of JobTypes for the users to be able to select. Then I will post the results back to the controller and update the DB. I have started looking into custom viewmodels, but am still unsure of exactly how to put that together and get it to work.
