Entity Framework

Hi,

 

I´m starting with Entity framework in mojoportal solution.

I don't find any source how to use but i´m trying to create my EntityContext to access to all entities but its not working.

There any sample or documentation to search?

Thanks

Re: Entity Framework

I think the main thing is you will need to add a connection string in the <connectionStrings section of Web.config to use Entity Framework whereas mojoPortal code uses a connection string from appSettings, Entity Framework expects it in the connectionStrings section.

Hope that helps,

Joe

Re: Entity Framework

hi,

 

Yes i´ve done that, but when i create the main object

mojoPortal.Data.EF.MSSQL.mojoEntities mj = new mojoPortal.Data.EF.MSSQL.mojoEntities();

when i go to all of this properties i can do something like that:

mj.Users.Find(); i only have mj.Users.

mojoEntities is like a DataContext? why i cant get all properties from entities?

Thanks

Re: Entity Framework

If you want to use Entity Framework you should start from scratch, don't use anything from mojoPortal.Data.EF.MSSQL, that was just some code I was experimenting with last February, it is not working code intended for anyone to use.

Actually I thought you wanted to use EF for your own custom feature development, you should be able to do that but mojoPortal is not currently supporting EF for core features.

Best,

Joe
