Entity Framework Validation With Partial Methods
Sep 2, 2011
I'm validating entities in EF4.1 with the On[Property]Changing partial methods in a VS2010 Winforms project. Example: OnJobNumberChanging(value As String) I throw an ArgumentException in them if 'value' violates a rule. When editing in a DataGridView which is bound to the results of an ObjectQuery, user clears the text in a cell bound to a property which is not nullable and tabs out. Code enters the partial method, exception is thrown.

Where then do I catch this exception? I am unable to find the correct event. Exception message is, "ArgumentException was unhandled by user code".

I have extended an Entity Framework 4 entity class with a calculated property in a partial class. This member is not available on the client to which the entities are exposed via WCF RIA Services.when using C# appears to be changing the extension of the partial class file from .cs to .shared.cs. I tried this with my VB.Net solution (.vb to .shared.vb) and got a long list of errors. I believe what happened is that the partial class lost its association with the entity on the client - it inherited from object rather than EntityObject.
My best guess is that this is related to the way that VB.Net handles namespaces.Each project has a 'Root Namespace' which is prepended to anything that is defined within a code file. C# has a 'Default Namespace'which is the namespace into which new types are placed by default - via a namespace statement within the file.The partial class is probably having the client namespace prepended to it which puts it into a different namespace than the entity with which it is associated on the server.Is there any means of extending an entity in such a way that those extensions are available on the client via WCF RIA Services and VB.Net?

Entity Splitting: one class, two or more tables.Here is how it is done in C#, but I need to get it working in vb.net.One more thing: the class name and table columns do not match, so I have to be able to map that out, too.I have to get this to work this way because the place I'm working at right now is a vb.net only shop and the database schema is fubar, but they have so much (millions) of lines of code done directly against the database in both asp classic, vb.net, AND asp.net webforms that changing the schema right now is not realistically possible.

I am trying to jump from ASP Classic to asp.net. I have followed tutorials to get Entity Framework and LINQ to connect to my test database, but I am having difficulties figuring out ExecuteQuery(). I believe the problem is that I need an "entity class" for my database, but I can't figure out how to do it. Here is my simple code:
Dim db as New TestModel.TestEntity
Dim results AS IEnumerable(OF ???) = db.ExecuteQuery(Of ???)("Select * from Table1")
From the microsoft example site, they use an entity class called Customers, but I don't understand what that means.

I have a database table called Job. I have mapped this table using LINQ to SQL so that I have a class called Job.
What I want to do is add some methods to the Job class. The Job class is defined in the LINQ to SQL classes .dbml file. So, in order to add methods, or anything else to the Job class what should I do?
Should I create a partial class named Job and define the methods in there? Will that then get mixed in properly? Not sure how to proceed on this one.

My company is tossing around the idea of using the Entity Framework when it comes out with .NET 4. We are currently a VB.NET shop, but have some interest in switching to C#.Is there any major arguments for or against such a move?Does EF with C# hold any advantages in performance, coding ease, etc over VB.NET?

Here are the entities that i have...
Public Class Account
Public Property AccountId As integer
Public Property AccountDescription As String
Public Property Transactions As List(Of Transaction)
End Class
[Code]...
i would like to make it suc that when i do "db.Account.find(1)" for example it also loads in the list of all transactions which have the coresponding AccountId. I'm not too sure what type of relationship this is?? anyway, right now i can do
Dim acct As Account = db.Account.Find(1) acct.Transactions = from ts in db.transactions select ts where ts.AccountId = acct.accountid but i know this is not the correct way, there must be a way to map this out so that entity can just load everything in one shot right?

I am used to using datasets for my projects in terms of data access. I now set myself an easy app to work on in order to learn the entity data framework and how to retrieve & manipulate data.Can anyone guide me through on where to start, what are the advantages of this model, In what scenarios should I choose to use entity framework and what are the things (basis) I should now before starting.My datasets are working fine too. Are there any reasons for me not to stick with that way of accessing data? Or is this something to consider depending on the users of the website (for speed purposes etc.)

I have some basic expirience in Visual Basic and programming Windows Forms programs. I know now that forms programs are no longer updated by Microsoft and that WPF is the way to go. No to mention the slicker interface you can create. I've also noticed that passing SQL strings to a database is no longer the standard either. It's either Entity Framwork or Linq.
So I am going for a fresh approach. I need to develop a program that will access a sql database and be accessed by about 10 concurrent users within the office. What's the best approach in general? Linq or Entity Framework? Also, could you recommend a book or two for someone who is new to WPF and Entity Framework? I do have some programming expirience, just none with WPF or the new ways of ADO.net 4.

So, when you bind a collection of Entity objects to a grid component, the grid displays those fields in the sequential order they are found in the SQL Table they came from. This shows that the ordinal position of the fields are associated with their corresponding entity properties... somehow or other.
So here is the question: How can I obtain the table field ordinal position by reflecting over an Entity Framework Entity's properties? Let me tell you what I know and what I have tried. Apparently, each data field property in an EF Entity is decorated with a System.Runtime.Serialization.DataMemberAttribute. This attribute appears to have an Order property. However, I have discovered that this property does not contain what I am looking for. The value for all Data Properties in an Entity seems to be -1. What ever order is, it isn't ordinal position.

I noticed in the Entity Framework designer that you can map stored procedures for Insert, Update, and Delete operations. Is there any way to do this for Select operations as well, or is there a new direction for database access code where we don't really write stored procedures for our basic select operations any more?The company I work for is pretty adamant about always using stored procedures for every database operation, even though the Entity Framework makes the calls safe by calling sp_executesql.It seems like both LINQ to SQL and Entity Framework have moved away from using stored procedures for selecting the data. Is this an accurate statement?Just to clarify my question:I have a table in my database called Product. I use the wizard in the Entity Framework to generate my models...so I now have an Entity called Product. When I do the following query:
db.Products.SingleOrDefault(p => p.Id == 1);
It generates code similar to:
EXEC sp_executesql N'SELECT * FROM Product'[code].....
If it's not possible to do that using SingleOrDefault I'm fine with that. I'd much rather have the following:
db.Products.GetProduct(1);
Is this something that is normally done or do most people just have it dynamically generate the SQL?

I'm brand new to the Entity Framework and trying to learn all it can offer. I'm currently working my way through the MVC Music Store tutorial which includes the following code:
public ActionResult Browse(string genre) {
// Retrieve Genre and its Associated Albums from database
var genreModel = storeDB.Genres.Include("Albums")
.Single(g => g.Name == genre);
return View(genreModel);
[Code] .....
The problem is I'm getting the following exception:
Invalid column name 'GenreGenreId'.
Which I know is true, but I can't for the life of my work out where it's getting 'GenreGenreId' from.
Here is the source for my classes:

Public Class Album
Private _title As String
Private _genre As Genre
Private _AlbumId As Int32
