Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type DbContext. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

This will get the changed entities from the data context's change tracker and submit them accordingly. The state of the entities is also updated to reflect that they are in an unchanged state after being added or updated or detached if deleted. If the connection is not in an open state, it is opened temporarily while performing the actions.

Example

C#

if(dataContext.HasChanges())
    await dataContext.SubmitChangesAsync<Account>();
