Bind data of interface properties only
- by nivpenso
I am new in all the Entity Framework models and the data bindings.
I created an interface and generated a model class from my Candidate table in the db.
public interface ICandidate
{
String ID { get; set; }
string Name { get; set; }
string Mail { get; set; }
}
i created a partial class to the generated Candidate model so i will be able to implement the ICandidate interface without changing any generated code.
public partial class Candidates : ICandidate
{
string ICandidate.ID
{
get { return this.PK; }
set { _PK = value; }
}
string ICandidate.Name
{
get{ return this._Name; }
set { _Name = value; }
}
string ICandidate.Mail
{
get { return this._Email; }
set { this._Email = value; }
}
}
Of course, the generated class has more properties than the interface has (Like IsDeleted field that is not necessary for the interface).
I want to display in a DataGridView all the candidates from the db. But I want that only the interface's properties will be shown as columns in the DataGridView.
Is there a way bind only the interface's properties the the DataGridView?
In my DB there is a table called Candidate_To_Company with these columns:
PK, Candidate_FK, Company_FK, Insertion_Date
I would like to bind this table to DataGridView. but instead of displaying Candidate_FK i would like to display the candidate name from ICandidate. Is this possible?
