Closed Feature: ExternalReference attribute not supported by FluentMetadata? [7207]

MdeJ — Fri, 21 Dec 2012 20:21:21 GMT

Hi, would it be possible to add support for the ExternalReference attribute to FluentMetadata's MemberProjectionCollectionMetadata class? I can see that the Include attribute is supported via .Projection(...).Include() so I guess it shouldn't be too hard to do the same thing for ExternalReference. Would be really great if this could be added. Thanks in advance, Ben

You can also use it directly on a Projection, like so:
this.Projection(x=>x.NavigationProperty).ExternalReference();

Hi Good suggestions.
I've added it to the library and pushed a new Nuget package.

You can use it like so:
this.Projection(x => x.NavigationProperty).Association(... association info ... ).IsExternalReference()

There was a bug in MemberUIHintsMeatadata.GetDisplayAttribute method that resulted in an infinite recursion eventually leading to a stack overflow error.

Created Issue: T4RIA.tt generates Binary type [7012]

valeriuz — Wed, 27 Jun 2012 08:21:13 GMT

When a column in database is set as Binary the template generates Binary type instead of Byte[].
The issue is at line 321 in T4RIA.tt where the following code should be added:
case "Binary":
type = "Byte[]";
break;

Commented Issue: Loading new items to collection which already have another new items crash [6967]

JoeBrockhaus — Tue, 29 May 2012 14:09:03 GMT

When I try to load items to collection which already have another new items (EntityState == EntityState.New), I got "An item with the same key has already been added." exception and after investigation I found problem in lines of Import method:
foreach (T currentEntity in collection)
{
identityCache.Add(currentEntity.GetIdentity(), currentEntity);
}
It try to add two items with ID = 0 from collection (I used int for ID and I have two new items in collection).

My solution propose is to add condition to add only not new entities:
foreach (T currentEntity in collection)
{
if (currentEntity.EntityState != EntityState.New)
{
identityCache.Add(currentEntity.GetIdentity(), currentEntity);
}
}

(You could also change your ID types to Guid, and generated a NewGuid when entities are created .. but sometimes Guids can be bad for database and wire performance because of their random order and length.)

JoeBrockhaus — Tue, 29 May 2012 14:04:53 GMT

this will likely stay as is and is 'by design' because as everything is key-based, you cannot have multiple entities with the same key in the collection. If it were relaxed for Contrib, you would invariably run into the issue with the CLR code.

Two different entity instances of the same type cannot share the same key value. For instance, if EntityB references Entity1, but Entity2 has the same key value (0), which one should the reference actually point to?

You'll have to assign a temporarily unique key value to entities in EntityState.New (use a 'factory' method on the client that auto-increments an item-created count, using a lock{}), use an Invoke method in your DomainService to retrieve a new key value from the database (rather than generating a temporary key), or use a LoadOperation that returns a single new entity with the key from the database rather than using new Entity() in the client.

Each of these has their various pros/cons, but hopefully this helps you on your way. (If you use a temporary key value, then before saving related entities with FKs that were previously temporary, you will have to manually update these prior to saving them. This means you have to save your entity hierarchy top-down when inserting, which is a bit tedious to deal with because you'll notice the InsertEntity methods in your DomainService will get called bottom-up..)

Created Issue: ComboBoxExtensions: report Operation errors [6959]

rockresolve — Mon, 21 May 2012 04:18:27 GMT

Could we add error reporting for Operations that have errors. At the moment they are silently ignored. Debug output alone would be fine.

Something like in ComboBoxExtensions.RaiseLoadCompleted(OperationBase op)
{
if (op.HasError)
{
ReportError(op.Error);
op.MarkErrorAsHandled();
}

...

private void ReportError(Exception ex)
{
if (ex == null)
return;

Debug.WriteLine(ex.Message);
Debug.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
//Debug.WriteLine(ex.StackTrace);

// Account for nested exceptions
Exception innerException = ex.InnerException;
while (innerException != null)
{
Debug.WriteLine(string.Format(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture, "Caused by: {0}", innerException.Message));
Debug.WriteLine(innerException.StackTrace);

innerException = innerException.InnerException;
}
}

Hi Shrog,
I've added the method you provided and also added methods to control the other properties of DisplayAttribute that were missing. I've comitted the change to codeplex and created and published a new Nuget package.

Thanks for your help!

Created Issue: Bug - EntityTools Clone Returns empty IEnumerable [6743]

bjporada — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 14:11:27 GMT

public static IEnumerable<T> Clone<T>(this EntitySet<T> collection, IEnumerable<T> source, LoadBehavior loadBehavior) where T : Entity, new()

Clone static method that clones an IEnumerable of entities into an EntitySet creates a List called clonedEntities and returns the list without ever using it.

List<T> clonedEntities = new List<T>();

***there is no activity with clonedEntities between these two lines of code.***

return new ReadOnlyCollection<T>(clonedEntities);
