Get The ID Of An Entity Just Inserted On Postback?
Jul 23, 2010The only thing I can think to do is to call GetByExample(entityJustInserted) and pick the one with the highest ID. Not great...anyone got a better way?

View 1 RepliesHere'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.

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 a div lets say :
<div id="foo">
</div>
Now I inserted some html content inside this div on some button click(without postback) . Now when I perform a postback on some action say on server control submit button , I want the html(which I inserted via javascript) be persisted in the foo div. Right now I am thinking to take an hidden input server control and when the form will be submitted I will insert the content of foo div in that hidden control, the next time when the page loads after the postback I will fill the foo div with the content inside the hidden field. Am I going with correct approach or is their any other good approach which I should opt ?
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?
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.

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 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 have a stupid problem with the Entity Framework. I get the following Exception:

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.

View 3 RepliesI 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;
Does ASP.NET provide any built in functionality for converting a named entity into its corresponding entity number? For example, I want to convert to , " to " and so on.

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 have a gridview with checkbox column. I loop through all the rows of gridview, if it's checked I enter the second column text into my database. The second column text at one point shows the word Küche, but when I take that text (in order to insert it in db) it gives me Küche and that's what I see when I then read it from db.
