I've recently downloaded Entity Framework Code First CTP5
, and have a trouble with this scenario. I have two tables as follows:
Members table : ID Name Comments table : ID Comment CommentedMemberID CommentMemberID
And, the data should be like the following:
Members ID Name 1 Mike 2 John 3 Tom Comments ID Comment CommentedMemberID CommentMemberID 1 Good 1 2 2 Good 1 3 3 Bad 2 1
Then, I 开发者_如何转开发coded as shown below:
public class Member
{
public int ID {get; set; }
public string Name { get; set;}
public virtual ICollection<Comment> Comments { get; set;}
}
public class Comment
{
public int ID { get; set; }
public string Comment { get; set; }
public int CommentedMemberID { get; set; }
public int CommentMemberID{ get; set; }
public virtual Member CommentedMember { get; set; }
public virtual Member CommentMember { get; set; }
}
public class TestContext : DbContext
{
public DbSet<Member> Members { get; set; }
public DbSet<Comment> Comments { get; set; }
}
But when I run these models on my cshtml
, it gives me errors saying "Cannot create CommentMember
instance" or something like that (Sorry, I already changed my models to proceed the EF Code First evaluation, so can't reproduce the same error).
I've also tried to use OnModelCreating
on the TestContext
, but can't find any good instructions and don't know what to do. I saw a blog post of the EF Code First CTP3, and it seems there was a RelatedTo attribute in that version, but now it has gone.
Could anyone know how to get it work properly? Or is this a totally wrong way to go with this scenario?
Thanks,
YooThis is a special case and you need to use fluent API to configure your associations. This will do the trick:
protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
modelBuilder.Entity<Comment>().HasRequired(c => c.CommentedMember)
.WithMany(m => m.Comments)
.HasForeignKey(c => c.CommentedMemberID)
.WillCascadeOnDelete();
modelBuilder.Entity<Comment>().HasRequired(c => c.CommentMember)
.WithMany()
.HasForeignKey(c => c.CommentMemberID)
.WillCascadeOnDelete(false);
}
