I have a data call in a Linq to Entities powered data access layer that is designed to make paged calls. In doing so, I need to select a subset of the data, say 50 rows, but also get the count of all matches to know how many total matches exist to be paged through. Currently, I'm doing the following: var queryResult = DatabaseContext.Table .Where(x => !x.IsDeleted) .Where(p => ( p.PropertyOne.ToLower().Contains(query) || p.PropertyTwo.ToLower().Contains(query) )); int count = queryResult.Count(); var returnData = queryResult .OrderBy(i => i.ID) .Skip(start).Take((length)) .Select(y => new

Using complex types the default column naming convention uses underscore. That means having type defined that way: [ColmplexType] public class Contact { string Email {get;set;} string Post {get;set;} } public EntityN { //... public Contact Contact {get;set;} } we will get columns named such way Contact_Email nvarchar(max) Contact_Post nvarchar(max) We of course could configure each column name separately using ColumnAttribute or Context.Properties mapping, but do we have a possibility to create naming convention and therefore configure all names in once for currnet type? For some of complex

I'm using EF6 code first. There are two tables, Lesson and LessonSections . The LessonSections table has a foreign key to Lesson.Id Here is the Lesson class with none important fields removed: public partial class Lesson { [System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Microsoft.Usage", "CA2214:DoNotCallOverridableMethodsInConstructors")] public Lesson() { LessonSections = new HashSet<LessonSection>(); } [StringLength(50)] public string Id { get; set; } [System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Microsoft.Usage", "CA2227:CollectionPropertiesShouldBeReadOnly")] public virtual

Edit This seems to occur for any Entity property that references another entity in one direction. In other words, for the below example, the fact that Bar overrides Equality appears to be irrelevant. Suppose I have the following classes: public class Foo { public int? Id { get; set; } public virtual Bar { get; set; } } public class Bar : IEquatable<Bar> { public int Id { get; set; } public override bool Equals(object obj) { var other = obj as Bar; return Equals(other); } public bool Equals(Bar other) { if (object.Equals(other, null)) return false; return this.Id == other.Id; } public static

Projecting self referencing multi level entities in Entity Framework 6. Let's say that I have a Category entity as follows: public class Category { public int CategoryId { get; set; } public int? ParentCategoryId { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } public string Description { get; set; } public virtual Category ParentCategory { get; set; } public virtual ICollection<Category> SubCategories { get; set; } public virtual ICollection<Product> Products { get; set; } public Category() { SubCategories = new HashSet<Category>(); Products = new HashSet<Product>(); } } And I would like to map

I'd like to apply the new async await functionality to Stored Procedures / Function Imports imported in my Entity model, but have as yet been unable to with the EF6 alpha. Is it yet possible in EF6 alpha2 (or the nightly build as of 20211) to call any of the new Async methods on an Entity Function Import (which calls a SQL Stored Procedure) that returns a collection of Complex Type? e.g. private async Task<IList<Company>> getInfo (string id) { using (CustomEntity context = new CustomEntity()) { var query = await context.customStoredProcedure(id).ToListAsync(); // ".ToListAsync()" method not
