    end

Inheritance: Object Attribute StoredProcedureAttribute UpdateEntityStoredProcedureAttribute

Remarks

The stored procedure must have one or more parameters representing all of the properties on the entity type except those marked with an IgnoreAttribute for updates. It should not return a value or a result set. Parameters marked with the TimestampAttribute are defined as input/out parameters. All other parameters are input only.

Example

C#

[LoadByKeyStoredProcedure("spProductInfo"), InsertEntityStoredProcedure("spProductAddUpdate"),
  UpdateEntityStoredProcedure("spProductAddUpdate"), DeleteEntityStoredProcedure("spProductDelete")]
public sealed class ProductInfo : ChangeTrackingEntity
{
    // The primary key
    [Key]
    public int ProductID
    {
    get;
    set => this.SetWithNotify(value, ref field);
    }

    // Product name
    public string? ProductName
    {
    get;
    set => this.SetWithNotify(value, ref field);
    }

    ...
}

// Example Load By Key usage:
using var dataContext = new DemoDatabaseDataContext();

var productInfo = dc.LoadByKey<ProductInfo>(productID).Single();

// Add a new entity
var newProduct = new ProductInfo { ProductName = "New Product" };

dataContext.InsertEntity(newProduct);

// Update an existing entity
productInfo.ProductName = "Updated Product";

dataContext.UpdateEntity(productInfo);

// Delete an entity
dataContext.DeleteEntity(productInfo);

// Since change tracking is enabled, we could also have just submitted the changes:
// dataContext.SubmitChanges<ProductInfo>();

Constructors

UpdateEntityStoredProcedureAttribute

Initialize a new instance of the attribute using the given stored procedure name

Properties

ParameterNamePrefix	This can be used to define an optional parameter name prefix that will be applied to all stored procedure parameters. (Inherited from StoredProcedureAttribute)
StoredProcedureName	This read-only property returns the name of the stored procedure to execute when loading entities (Inherited from StoredProcedureAttribute)
TypeId	When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute)

Methods

Equals	Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
GetHashCode	Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute)
GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
IsDefaultAttribute	When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute)
Match	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)

Extension Methods

ToNullableT	This is used to convert objects to null values if they are equal to null, DBNull.Value, or the default value for the given type. (Defined by DatabaseExtensions)
ToStringOrNull	This is used to convert an object to a string and return either the string value if not empty, or null if it is an empty string. (Defined by DatabaseExtensions)
