VS 2010 Entity Repository Error Class member EntityBase.id is unmapped.
- by Steve
In my project I have it set up so that all the tables in the DB has the property "id" and then I have the entity objects inherit from the EntityBase class using a repository pattern. I then set the inheritance modifier for "id" property in the dbml file o/r designer to "overrides"
Public MustInherit Class EntityBase
MustOverride Property id() As Integer
End Class
Public MustInherit Class RepositoryBase(Of T As EntityBase)
Protected _Db As New DataClasses1DataContext
Public Function GetById(ByVal Id As Integer) As T
Return (From a In _Db.GetTable(Of T)() Where a.id = Id).SingleOrDefault
End Function
End Class
Partial Public Class Entity1
Inherits EntityBase
End Class
Public Class TestRepository
Inherits RepositoryBase(Of Entity1)
End Class
the line
Return (From a In _Db.GetTable(Of T)() Where a.id = Id).SingleOrDefault
however produces the error "Class member EntityBase.id is unmapped" when i use VS 2010 using the 4.0 framework but I never received that error with the old one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
