Hi. How do I know that the DB table has a column: TypeId for some entity? I write data directly in DB from xml. This xml doesn't has TypeId attribute and for my custom query i should know, add TypeId to query from code or no.

Hello Anton and welcome to the DataObjects.Net community.

Could you please explain the scenario you faced with? This would be very helpful. I'd recommend you to edit this post and add the necessary details.

Thanks in advance.

One Answer:

Anton,

A DB table doesn't have the TypeId column in case the corresponding Entity has ConcreteTable inheritance scheme. In runtime it can be found by this code snippet:

var customerTypeInfo = domain.Model.Types[typeof(Customer)];
var inheritanceScheme = customerTypeInfo.Hierarchy.InheritanceSchema;
if (inheritanceScheme == InheritanceSchema.ConcreteTable)
  // TypeId column is absent

Hope that helps.
