IndirectRelationshipEdge Class

Initializes a new instance of the IndirectRelationshipEdge class.

Initializes a new instance of the IndirectRelationshipEdge class.

Gets / sets the field name mapped onto this relationship in the endEntity.

Gets the end entity navigator validator.

Returns true if the end navigator is empty/hidden

Gets the end vertex of the edge.

Gets an error message indicating what is wrong with this object.

Gets the first relationship (between start entity and intermediate entity), if there are relationships specified, otherwise null.

Gets the full description of this relationship, to be used in textual representations of the relationhip in for example trees.

Gets the full reverse description, so if FullDescription returns startentity 1:n endentity, this property returns endentity m:1 startentity

Returns true if at least one of the navigators of the contained relationships is hidden/empty.

Gets a value indicating whether this edge is directed. If true, the edge is directed from startVertex to endVertex and is seen as an edge only between startVertex and endVertex, not between endVertex and startVertex. If false, this edge isn't considered a directed edge and is seen as an edge between startVertex and endVertex and also between endVertex and startVertex.

Returns whether this relationship is a 'pure' many to many. A pure many to many relationship means the intermediate entity is an entity with solely a primary key and all fields in the primary key are fk fields in the two participating m:1 relationships.

Gets the String with the specified column name.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether this relationship is a 'model only' (true) relationship or a full relationship (false). Full relationships require a foreign key constraint in the relational model data.

Gets the relationships this indirectrelationedge is based on.

Gets / sets the type of the relationship.

Gets the second relationship (between end entity and intermediate entity), if there are relationships specified, otherwise null.

Gets / sets the field name mapped onto this relationship in the startEntity.

Gets the start entity navigator validator.

Returns true if the start navigator is empty/hidden

Gets the start vertex of the edge.

Returns a unique association name. The name can be used using code generation if the whole model is consumed in 1 go to refer to associations. Format: StartvertexFullName_EndVertexFullName_StartNavigator_EndNavigator. If both navigators are empty, Guid(N) is used instead of navigatornames, and the format becomes StartvertexFullName_EndVertexFullName_Guid.

Handles the ValueChanged event of a member variable which is a commandifiedmember.

Checks if this relationship is a 'pure' many to many. A pure many to many relationship means the intermediate entity is an entity with solely a primary key and all fields in the primary key are fk fields in the two participating m:1 relationships.

Compares the current instance with another object of the same type and returns an integer that indicates whether the current instance precedes, follows, or occurs in the same position in the sort order as the other object.

Determines if the entity specified is equal to or a subtype of the start entity and end entity.

Determines the intermediate entity.

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 collection navigators (0, 1 or 2) contained by this relationship, if applicable. A 1:1 relationship has 0 collection navigators, a 1:n relationship 1 and a m:n relationship 2. Navigators which are empty are ignored, as they're not there.

Gets the end navigator string as Navigator object.

Gets the full description of this relationship.

Serves as the default hash function.

Gets the single element navigators (0, 1 or 2) contained by this relationship, if applicable. A 1:1 relationship has 2 single element navigators, a 1:n relationship 1 and a m:n relationship 0. Navigators which are empty are ignored, as they're not there.

Gets the start navigator string as Navigator object.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Marks the element as changed.

Marks this field as removed. This routine will raise INotifyAsRemoved.ElementRemoved

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Called when the relationtype was changed. Called from command.

Called when the StartEntityIsPkSide flag changed.

Serializes the output setting values for the start and end navigator

Serializes the data in this class to the serializer passed in

Performs a soft-equals: it compares the two end points and whether the contained normal relationship edges are the same. It doesn't compare navigators, hence it's not a full equals comparison

Toggles the model only flag on this, if the relationship is a normal relationship as the model-only-ness of an indirect relationship is readonly (as it's determined based on the modelonly flag of the contained relationships in the indirect relationship).

Returns a String that represents the current Object.

As ToString() but now the description is from the point of view of the end entity.

Validates this instance.

Raised when the implementing element has been changed

Raised when the implementing element has been removed from its container

Event which is raised when the definition of this relationship edge has been changed. What has changed is enclosed inside the event args.

Returns true if the end navigator is empty/hidden

Gets the full description.

Gets the left navigator which is the navigator of the left side of the relationship.

Gets the left quantifier string for the relationship, e.g. if the relationshiptype is 1:n, the left quantifier is 1, the right quantifier is '*'

Gets the Full name of the left vertex of the relationship

Gets the type of the relationship.

Gets the right navigator, which is the navigator of the right side of the relationship.

Gets the right quantifier string for the relationship, e.g. if the relationshiptype is 1:n, the left quantifier is 1, the right quantifier is '*'

Gets the Full name of the right vertex of the relationship

Returns true if the start navigator is empty/hidden
