Problems with inheritance query view and one to many association in entity framework 4
- by Kazys
Hi,
I have situation in with I stucked and don't know way out. The problem is in my bigger model, but I have made small example which shows the same problem. I have 4 tables. I called them SuperParent, NamedParent, TypedParent and ParentType.
NamedParent and TypedParent derives from superParent. TypedParent has one to many association with ParentType. I describe mapping for entities using queryView. The problem is then I want to get TypedParents and Include ParentType I get the following exception:
An error occurred while preparing the command definition. See the inner exception for details. --- System.ArgumentException: The ResultType of the specified expression is not compatible with the required type. The expression ResultType is 'Transient.reference[PasibandymaiModel.SuperParent]' but the required type is 'Transient.reference[PasibandymaiModel.TypedParent]'.
Parameter name: arguments[1]
To get TypedParents I use following code:
context.SuperParent.OfType().Include("ParentType");

I have tried using AssociationSetMapping instead of using Association with ReferentialConstraint. But then couldn't insert related entities at once, becouse entity framework didn't provided entity key of inserted entities for related entities.
Thanks for any idea
