Definition

Namespace:: System.Data.Linq

Assembly:: System.Data.Linq.dll

Provides for deferred loading and relationship maintenance for the collection side of one-to-many and one-to-one relationships in a LINQ to SQL applications.

Remarks

This class is used in combination with EntityRef<TEntity>.

Constructors

EntitySet<TEntity>()	Initializes a new instance of the EntitySet<TEntity> class.
EntitySet<TEntity>(Action<TEntity>, Action<TEntity>)	Initializes a new instance of the EntitySet<TEntity> class while supplying handlers for add and remove operations.

Properties

Count	Gets the number of entities in the EntitySet<TEntity> collection.
HasAssignedValues
HasLoadedOrAssignedValues	Specifies whether the EntitySet<TEntity> has loaded or assigned a value.
HasLoadedValues
IsDeferred	Specifies whether this EntitySet<TEntity> has a deferred query that has not yet executed.
Item[Int32]	Gets or sets the element at the specified index.

Methods

Add(TEntity)	Adds an entity.
AddRange(IEnumerable<TEntity>)	Adds a collection of entities.
Assign(IEnumerable<TEntity>)	Assigns an EntitySet<TEntity> collection to another EntitySet<TEntity> collection.
Clear()	Removes all items.
Contains(TEntity)	Specifies whether the EntitySet<TEntity> contains a specific entity.
CopyTo(TEntity[], Int32)	Copies the EntitySet<TEntity> to an array.
Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetEnumerator()	Returns an enumerator that iterates through a collection.
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetNewBindingList()	Creates a new list for binding to a data source.
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
IndexOf(TEntity)	Returns the index of the entity.
Insert(Int32, TEntity)	Inserts an entity at an index position.
Load()	Loads the EntitySet<TEntity>.
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
Remove(TEntity)	Removes an entity.
RemoveAt(Int32)	Removes an entity at a specified index.
SetSource(IEnumerable<TEntity>)	Sets the source of the EntitySet<TEntity>.
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)

Events

ListChanged

Occurs when the contents of a list are changed.
