Kodgenerering i LINQ till SQL
Du kan generera kod för att representera en databas med hjälp av antingen Object Relational Designer eller kommandoradsverktyget SQLMetal. I båda fallen sker kodgenerering från slutpunkt till slutpunkt i tre steg:
- DBML-extraktorn extraherar schemainformation från databasen och monterar om informationen till en XML-formaterad DBML-fil.
- DBML-filen genomsöks av DBML-validatorn efter fel.
- Om inga verifieringsfel visas skickas filen till kodgeneratorn.
Mer information finns i SqlMetal.exe (kodgenereringsverktyg). Utvecklare som använder Visual Studio kan också använda objektrelationsdesignern för att generera kod. Se LINQ till SQL Tools i Visual Studio.
DBML-extraktor
DBML Extractor är en LINQ-till SQL-komponent som tar databasmetadata som indata och genererar en DBML-fil som utdata.
Kodgenerator
Kodgeneratorn är en LINQ till SQL-komponent som översätter DBML-filer till Visual Basic-, C#- eller XML-mappningsfiler.
XML-schemadefinitionsfil
DBML-filen måste vara giltig mot följande schemadefinition som en XSD-fil.
Särskilj den här schemadefinitionsfilen från den schemadefinitionsfil som används för att verifiera en extern mappningsfil. Mer information finns i Extern mappning).
Kommentar
Visual Studio-användare hittar också den här XSD-filen i dialogrutan XML-scheman som "DbmlSchema.xsd". Information om hur du använder XSD-filen korrekt för att verifiera en DBML-fil finns i Så här validerar du DBML och externa mappningsfiler.
