I have a M2M relation, Roles-RolesPrefixes-Prefixes, and when I set a DevExpress GridControl datasource to the RolesPrefixes entityCollection I get 4 columns instead of 2.

I was expecting columns RolesId and PrefixesId, but I also get a Roles and Prefixes columns of types RolesEntity and PrefixesEntity.

Is this an LLBLGen issue or a DevExpress one? Can you help to fix it?

Thanks

Looking at the returned collection, the items do have the 4 properties, it looks like it's an llbl issue then.

Is there some settings I need to do that I'm missing?

Not sure this is the best procedure, I fixed it by creating a view to that table, now I get only the 2 columns as expected.

It would be nice to know if there is a better way to do this.

Thanks

These properties are navigators to the related entities. You can remove these extra properties from the Grid, can't you?

You can also set Browsable attribute to false on these properties. [Browsable(false)]

Anyway, I guess you are using an old outdated version. Which RTL version (build no.) are you using?

Hi Walaa,

do you mean the llbl version? I'm using v4.0

Setting the Browsable property worked just fine
