I have two problems:-
I cant get a foreign key relation between standard and subjects,it says the relation will cause several cascade delete paths...
if I make a foreign key rlation between test and usedetail it gives me the above problem for mapping the tst_question table .
Also since I am new to EF code first ,please point out my mistakes.all help and disccussion is welcome.
By default EF will create foreign keys will cascade delete
. In your model if you delete a Standard
there are multiple paths to delete the QuestionDescriptor
.
Standard -> QuestionDescriptor
and
Standard -> Subject -> QuestionDescriptor
That is why SQL server does not allow you to do this. See this answer for more details
What you can do is explicitly tell EF to create foreign keys without cascade delete
. But this may create data integrity problems. So make sure you understand the consequences.
What you can do is configure the relationships using fluent API with WillCascadeOnDelete(false)
.
protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
//other mappings
modelBuilder.Entity<Subject>()
.HasRequired(subject => subject.Standard).WithMany()
.HasForeignKey(subject => subject.StandardId)
.WillCascadeOnDelete(false);
}
