How can I extend a LINQ-to-SQL class without having to make changes every time the code is generated
- by csharpnoob
Hi,
Update from comment:
I need to extend linq-to-sql classes by own parameters and dont want to touch any generated classes. Any better suggestes are welcome. But I also don't want to do all attributes assignments all time again if the linq-to-sql classes are changing. so if vstudio generates new attribute to a class i have my own extended attributes kept separate, and the new innerited from the class itself
Original question:
i'm not sure if it's possible.
I have a class car and a class mycar extended from class car.
Class mycar has also a string list. Only difference.
How can i cast now any car object to a mycar object without assigning all
attributes each by hand. Like:
Car car = new Car();
MyCar mcar = (MyCar) car;
or
MyCar mcar = new MyCar(car);
or however i can extend car with own variables and don't have to do always
Car car = new Car();
MyCar mcar = new MyCar();
mcar.name = car.name;
mcar.xyz = car.xyz;
...
Thanks.
