EntityContainerMapping Class

Definition

Namespace:

System.Data.Entity.Core.Mapping

Assembly:

EntityFramework.dll

Represents the Mapping metadata for the EntityContainer map in CS space. Only one EntityContainerMapping element is allowed in the MSL file for CS mapping.

public class EntityContainerMapping : System.Data.Entity.Core.Mapping.MappingBase

Examples

For Example if conceptually you could represent the CS MSL file as following ---Mapping --EntityContainerMapping ( CNorthwind-->SNorthwind ) --EntitySetMapping --AssociationSetMapping The type represents the metadata for EntityContainerMapping element in the above example. The EntitySetBaseMapping elements that are children of the EntityContainerMapping element can be accessed through the properties on this type.

Remarks

We currently assume that an Entity Container on the C side is mapped to a single Entity Container in the S - space.
