DBForeignKeyConstraint Class

Initializes a new instance of the DBForeignKeyConstraint class.

Initializes a new instance of the DBForeignKeyConstraint class.

The DBTable instance this constraint applies to, which is the 'FK side'

The literal name for the constraint.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether this element is created by the designer from mappings (true) or that it was created from meta-data retrieved from the database (false, default).

Gets the Custom properties (name - value pairs) read from the schema.

Gets or sets the update rule action.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether this instance is deserializing.

Gets the complete ErrorLog for this object.

Gets a value indicating whether the fk fields together form the PK of the table this FK constraint applies to.

List of DBTableField instances of the foreign key in this relation. DBTableField instances have an DBTable reference for upward navigation. FK constraints which span multiple catalogs are not supported. The fields in the foreign key correspond with the fields in the primary key based on the index, thus the field on position 0 in the ForeignKeyFields array, corresponds with the field on position 0 in the PrimaryKeyFields array.

Gets the full name.

Gets the full name for XML. This is a name which has the format schemaname:elementname or schemaname:elementname:fieldname. Used for references.

Gets the full name for XML. This is a name which has the format catalogname:schemaname:elementname or catalogname:schemaname:elementname:fieldname. Used for references.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether this element is marked for deletion.

Gets the PK side of this FK. FK side is 'AppliesToTable'

List of DBTableField instances of the primary key in this relation. DBTableField instances have an DBTable reference for upward navigation. FK constraints which span multiple catalogs are not supported. Single column primary keys will have just 1 entry in this array, multi-column primary keys will have per column one entry.

Gets the type of DB element in the form of a ContainedElementType value.

Gets or sets the update rule action.

Determines whether this instance is valid. Valid means that the constraint isn't marked for deletion and also none of the fields in the Fk constraint is marked for deletion. Will return false if IsCorrect returns false

Deserializes attributes of this element's base class from the reader.

Deserializes the data of this instance from reader.

Determines the relationship type formed by this foreign key constraint.

Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.

Gets the fk field related to the pk field specified

Gets the fkfield - pkfield pairs. Each pair has for Value1 the fk field and for Value2 the pk field.

Serves as the default hash function.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Gets the unique constraint used by fk. If this FK constraint is a 1:1 fk constraint, and the Fk side is not a PK, it has to be that the FK constraint uses a unique constraint in the FK table which is equal to the set of FK fields. If that's the case, this method returns that unique constraint, otherwise null.

Handles the contained list changed.

Logs an error in the ErrorLog structure of this object.

Logs the description as a warning.

Marks the element as changed.

Marks the element as removed, which raises the ElementRemoved event.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Called when this object received an event of type ContainedElementAdded

Called when this object received an event of type ContainedElementChanged

Called when this object received an event of type ContainedElementRemoved

Raises the PropertyChanged event.

Performs the additional contained element changed work. Override if additional work has to be done after the OnContainedElementChanged method has run.

Resets the Error Log for this object to an empty list.

Serializes the additional attributes.

Serializes the data in this class to the serializer passed in

Sets the new pk side. If there's no way the specified pk side can be made the pk side of this FK, the PK side will be empty (null). Calling this method always resets the current PK side of this FK.

Returns a String that represents the current Object.

Raised when an element was added to a collection (indirectly) contained in this element

Raised when an element contained in this element was changed.

Raised when an element was removed from a collection (indirectly) contained in this element

Raised when the implementing element has been changed

Raised when the implementing element has been removed from its container

Occurs when a property value changes. (INotifyPropertyChanged)

Gets a value indicating whether this instance is renamed to a new value.

Gets the new name, if the element was renamed, otherwise the original name

Gets the original name of the element.
