Examples

For example, the following shows a simplified declaration of a DataContext-derived class that has several properties that represent lists:

public partial class TeamSiteDataContext : DataContext 
{
    // ctors omitted for readability.
    
    [List(Name="Projects")]
    public EntityList<Item> Projects 
    {
        get {
            return this.GetList<Item>("Projects");
        }
    }
    
    [List(Name="Managers")]
    public EntityList<Item> Managers 
    {
        get {
            return this.GetList<Item>("Managers");
        }
    }
    
    [List(Name="Team Members")]
    public EntityList<Item> TeamMembers 
    {
        get {
            return this.GetList<Item>("Team Members");
        }
    }
}
