I have 3 tables. A primary EmploymentPlan table with PK GUID EmploymentPlanID and 2 FK's GUID PrevocServicesID & GUID JobDevelopmentServicesID. There are of course other fields, almost exclusively varchar(). Then the 2 secondary tables with the corresponding PK to the primary's FK's.
I am trying to write the LINQ INSERT Method and am struggling with the creation of the keys. Say I have a method like below. Is that correct? Will that even work? Should I have seperate methods for each?
Also, when INSERTING I didn't think I needed to provide the PK for a table. It is auto-generated, no?
Thanks,
public static void InsertEmploymentPlan(int planID, Guid employmentQuestionnaireID, string user, bool communityJob, bool jobDevelopmentServices,
bool prevocServices, bool transitionedPrevocIntegrated, bool empServiceMatchPref)
{
using (var context = MatrixDataContext.Create())
{
var empPrevocID = Guid.NewGuid();
var prevocPlan = new tblEmploymentPrevocService
{
EmploymentPrevocID = empPrevocID
};
context.tblEmploymentPrevocServices.InsertOnSubmit(prevocPlan);
var empJobDevID = Guid.NewGuid();
var jobDevPlan = new tblEmploymentJobDevelopmetService()
{
JobDevelopmentServicesID = empJobDevID
};
context.tblEmploymentJobDevelopmetServices.InsertOnSubmit(jobDevPlan);
var empPlan = new tblEmploymentQuestionnaire
{
CommunityJob = communityJob,
EmploymentQuestionnaireID = Guid.NewGuid(),
InsertDate = DateTime.Now,
InsertUser = user,
JobDevelopmentServices = jobDevelopmentServices,
JobDevelopmentServicesID =empJobDevID,
PrevocServices = prevocServices,
PrevocServicesID =empPrevocID,
TransitionedPrevocToIntegrated =transitionedPrevocIntegrated,
EmploymentServiceMatchPref = empServiceMatchPref
};
context.tblEmploymentQuestionnaires.InsertOnSubmit(empPlan);
context.SubmitChanges();
}
}
I understand I can use more then 1 InsertOnSubmit, See SO ? HERE, I just don't understand how that would apply to my situation and the PK/FK creation.
