Hi, I am using TPH inheritance to create similar custom elements. My TPH Model:
public class baseConfigItem
{
public int ID {get; set;}
public string ExternalText {get; set;}
public string InternalText { get; set; }
public bool Active { get; set; }
public string Group { get; set; }
public int SortOrder { get; set; }
public statusDef status { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Order> Orders{get;set;}
public baseConfigItem()
{
this.Orders= new List<Order>();
}
}
public class DoorTypes:baseConfigItem{public DoorTypes():base(){}}
public class WindowType : baseConfigItem { public WindowType():base(){}}
public class WallType : baseConfigItem { public WallType():base(){}}
public class RoofType : baseConfigItem { public RoofType():base(){}}
public class RoofSize : baseConfigItem { public RoofSize():base(){}}
public class DoorSize : baseConfigItem { public DoorSize():base(){}}
public class GardenSize : baseConfigItem { public GardenSize():base(){}}
Then I need to create many for many and 1, from one to many / many to one with children with entities of order:
- Order has many WindowTypes
- The order has many WallTypes
- There are many types of RoofTypes in the order.
- Order has one RoofSize
- Order has one DoorSize
- Order has one GardenSize
public class Order
{
public int ID {get; set;}
public virtual ICollection<WindowType> WindowTypes {get; set;}
public virtual ICollection<WallType> WallTypes {get; set;}
public virtual ICollection<RoofType> RoofTypes {get; set;}
public RoofSize RoofSize {get; set;}
public DoorSize DoorSize {get; set;}
public GardenSize GardenSize {get; set;}
}
However, this does not create many, many relationships for RoofTypes, WallTypes, etc. I assumed that public virtual ICollection Orders {get; set;} will be inherited. How can I establish the above inherited classes with a many to many and one to many relationship?
