Methods

FindSharedObjectRootForeignKey(IConventionForeignKey, in StoreObjectIdentifier)

Finds the first Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Metadata.IConventionForeignKey that is mapped to the same constraint in a shared table-like object.

This method is typically used by database providers (and other extensions). It is generally not used in application code.

public static IConventionForeignKey FindSharedObjectRootForeignKey(this IConventionForeignKey foreignKey, in StoreObjectIdentifier storeObject)

Parameters

foreignKey IConventionForeignKey

The foreign key.

storeObject StoreObjectIdentifier

The identifier of the containing store object.

Returns

IConventionForeignKey

The foreign key if found, or null if none was found.

FindSharedObjectRootForeignKey(IForeignKey, in StoreObjectIdentifier)

Finds the first Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Metadata.IForeignKey that is mapped to the same constraint in a shared table-like object.

This method is typically used by database providers (and other extensions). It is generally not used in application code.

public static IForeignKey FindSharedObjectRootForeignKey(this IForeignKey foreignKey, in StoreObjectIdentifier storeObject)

Parameters

foreignKey IForeignKey

The foreign key.

storeObject StoreObjectIdentifier

The identifier of the containing store object.

Returns

IForeignKey

The foreign key if found, or null if none was found.

FindSharedObjectRootForeignKey(IMutableForeignKey, in StoreObjectIdentifier)

Finds the first Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Metadata.IMutableForeignKey that is mapped to the same constraint in a shared table-like object.

This method is typically used by database providers (and other extensions). It is generally not used in application code.

public static IMutableForeignKey FindSharedObjectRootForeignKey(this IMutableForeignKey foreignKey, in StoreObjectIdentifier storeObject)

Parameters

foreignKey IMutableForeignKey

The foreign key.

storeObject StoreObjectIdentifier

The identifier of the containing store object.

Returns

IMutableForeignKey

The foreign key if found, or null if none was found.

GetConstraintName(IForeignKey)

Returns the foreign key constraint name.

public static string GetConstraintName(this IForeignKey foreignKey)

Parameters

foreignKey IForeignKey

The foreign key.

Returns

string

The foreign key constraint name.

GetConstraintName(IForeignKey, in StoreObjectIdentifier, in StoreObjectIdentifier)

Returns the foreign key constraint name.

public static string GetConstraintName(this IForeignKey foreignKey, in StoreObjectIdentifier storeObject, in StoreObjectIdentifier principalStoreObject)

Parameters

foreignKey IForeignKey

The foreign key.

storeObject StoreObjectIdentifier

The identifier of the containing store object.

principalStoreObject StoreObjectIdentifier

The identifier of the principal store object.

Returns

string

The foreign key constraint name.

GetConstraintNameConfigurationSource(IConventionForeignKey)

Gets the Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Metadata.ConfigurationSource for the constraint name.

public static ConfigurationSource? GetConstraintNameConfigurationSource(this IConventionForeignKey foreignKey)

Parameters

foreignKey IConventionForeignKey

The foreign key.

Returns

ConfigurationSource?

The Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Metadata.ConfigurationSource for the constraint name.

GetDefaultName(IForeignKey)

Returns the default constraint name that would be used for this foreign key.

public static string GetDefaultName(this IForeignKey foreignKey)

Parameters

foreignKey IForeignKey

Returns

string

The default constraint name that would be used for this foreign key.

GetDefaultName(IForeignKey, in StoreObjectIdentifier, in StoreObjectIdentifier)

Returns the default constraint name that would be used for this foreign key.

public static string GetDefaultName(this IForeignKey foreignKey, in StoreObjectIdentifier storeObject, in StoreObjectIdentifier principalStoreObject)

Parameters

foreignKey IForeignKey

The foreign key.

storeObject StoreObjectIdentifier

The identifier of the containing store object.

principalStoreObject StoreObjectIdentifier

The identifier of the principal store object.

Returns

string

The default constraint name that would be used for this foreign key.

GetMappedConstraints(IForeignKey)

Gets the foreign key constraints to which the foreign key is mapped.

public static IEnumerable<IForeignKeyConstraint> GetMappedConstraints(this IForeignKey foreignKey)

Parameters

foreignKey IForeignKey

The foreign key.

Returns

IEnumerable<IForeignKeyConstraint>
