How to: Create a Data Service Using a LINQ to SQL Data Source (ADO.NET Data Services)

Articolo

ADO.NET Data Services exposes entity data as a data service. The reflection provider enables you to define a data model that is based on any class that exposes members that return an IQueryable implementation. To be able to make updates to data in the data source, these classes must also implement the IUpdatable interface. For more information, see Data Services Providers (ADO.NET Data Services). This topic shows you how to create LINQ to SQL classes that access the Northwind sample database by using the reflection provider, as well as how to create the data service that is based on these data classes.

To add LINQ to SQL classes to a project

From within a Visual Basic or C# application, on the Project menu, click Add New Item.
Click the LINQ to SQL Classes template.
Change the name to Northwind.dbml.
Click Add.

The Northwind.dbml file is added to the project and the Object Relational Designer (O/R Designer) opens.
In Server/Database Explorer, under Northwind, expand Tables and drag the Customers table onto the Object Relational Designer (O/R Designer).

A Customer entity class is created and appears on the design surface.
Repeat step 6 for the Orders, Order_Details, and Products tables.
Right-click the new .dbml file that represents the LINQ to SQL classes and click View Code.

This creates a new code-behind page named Northwind.cs that contains a partial class definition for the class that inherits from the DataContext class, which in this case is NorthwindDataContext.

Replace the contents of the Northwind.cs code file with the following code. This code implements the reflection provider by extending the DataContext and data classes generated by LINQ to SQL:

Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Collections
Imports System.Linq
Imports System.Reflection
Imports System.Data.Linq
Imports System.Data.Linq.Mapping
Imports System.Data.Services
Imports System.Data.Services.Common

' Define the key properties for the LINQ to SQL data classes.
<DataServiceKeyAttribute("CustomerID")> _
Partial Public Class Customer
End Class
<DataServiceKeyAttribute("ProductID")> _
Partial Public Class Product
End Class
<DataServiceKeyAttribute("OrderID")> _
Partial Public Class Order
End Class
<DataServiceKeyAttribute("OrderID", "ProductID")> _
Partial Public Class Order_Detail
End Class

To create a data service by using a LINQ to SQL-based data model

In Solution Explorer, right-click the name of your ASP.NET project, and then click Add New Item.
In the Add New Item dialog box, select ADO.NET Data Service.
Supply a name for the service, and then click OK.

Visual Studio creates the XML markup and code files for the new service. By default, the code-editor window opens.
In the code for the data service, replace the comment /* TODO: put your data source class name here */ in the definition of the class that defines the data service with the type that is the entity container of the data model, which in this case is NorthwindDataContext.

In the code for the data service, replace the placeholder code in the InitializeService function with the following:

config.SetEntitySetAccessRule("Customers", EntitySetRights.All)
config.SetEntitySetAccessRule("Orders", EntitySetRights.All)
config.SetEntitySetAccessRule("Order_Details", EntitySetRights.All)
config.SetEntitySetAccessRule("Products", EntitySetRights.All)

config.SetEntitySetAccessRule("Customers", EntitySetRights.All);
config.SetEntitySetAccessRule("Orders", EntitySetRights.All);
config.SetEntitySetAccessRule("Order_Details", EntitySetRights.All);
config.SetEntitySetAccessRule("Products", EntitySetRights.All);

This enables authorized clients to access resources for the three specified entity sets.

To test the Northwind.svc data service by using a Web browser, follow the instructions in the topic Accessing the Service from a Web Browser (ADO.NET Data Services Quickstart).
