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,am trying to create a self association relation for an organization chart data tree in Entity Framework,after trying different ways for prevention of exceptions like 3007 and etc. I found that when I put my foreign key in my POCO near Parent and Items navigation properties its work.but I think this is not correct that we have both ParentID scalar property and Parent navigation property. review this and tell me is it correct or not.I'm using VS 2010 RC and ofcource .net framework 4.0 RC

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?)
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?
For VS 2010, I am trying to add new item of existing mdf file. By : Add new item -> Data -> ADO.NET Entity Data Model -> Generate from database.

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 followed this tutorial [URL] to get a google map displayed but now I want do the next step and read the long/lat and text out of my ADO.NET Entity Data Model and put it on the map (preferably the text should appear when clicking on the red spot in a white text box - as you know it from google). Has someone done this already and could let me know how I get the points on the google map? THis is how the function in my controller looks right now:
Function Map() As ActionResult
ViewData.Model = (From m In _db.ahn_mappoints Select m.LONG, m.LAT, BLOG = m.Text.Substring(0, 81) & "...").Take(2).ToList()
Return View()

I've been using entity data models for quite a few sections of my website and find it really good for saving things to the database.
After searching for a while, I can't seem to find a good way to populate a new instance with data from a database other than using a data reader. E.G:
MyClass.myID = reader("myID")
We're upgrading our system core asp to asp.net mvc, but there is a problem with refreshing the Database Model, our system is a UDP listener Windows Service, and Instering data to our database, our web system reading the database and process it then render.

View 4 RepliesHow 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.
I've described my model using an Ado Entity Data Model file (*.edmx), and i wish now to generate my db schema and tables from it. Is it possible?

how to add entity data model page.
I use ADO.net Entity Data model for work with database.
In my program, I want to update a record of user table, so I use the code below to do this.
In this function I send changed user info and then overwrite the information with the current user information.
After I run objUser = _user; and then call objContext.SaveChanges(); to save the changes.
But when I do this, the changes are not persisted to the database. I use this code for another programs but in this case the code does not work!
public void Update(tbLiUser _user)
{
LinkContext objContext = this.Context;
tbLiUser objUser = objContext.tbLiUsers.First(u => u.tluId == _user.tluId);
objContext.Attach(objUser);
objUser = _user;
objContext.SaveChanges();
}
