public sealed class ArxIdColumn : IEquatable<ArxIdColumn>

Constructor

No public constructor: create one with:

• ArxIdColumn.Generated<T>(string name)

  An id column the database fills in when the entity has no value for it (identity, sequence, default).

  Parameter	Type	Description
  name	string	The id column's name.

• ArxIdColumn.Supplied<T>(string name)

  An id column the caller always gives a value for.

  Parameter	Type	Description
  name	string	The id column's name.

Properties

• static ArxIdColumn NoIdColumn { get; }

  The table has no id column: a log or a history table, or a table identified only by a combination of columns, such as a compound primary key (declare those columns as a key). Create stores its rows and returns None.

• static ArxIdColumn NoPrimaryKey { get; }
  Obsolete. Use ArxIdColumn.NoIdColumn: the same declaration under a name that also fits a compound primary key.

  The former name of NoIdColumn: it read as wrong for a table with a compound primary key.

• string Name { get; }

  The column name (compared with attribute names case-insensitively, like every column). Empty for NoIdColumn.

• Type Type { get; }

  The .NET type the id is read and written as.

• bool IsGenerated { get; }

  True when the database can produce the value.

• bool IsNoIdColumn { get; }

  True for NoIdColumn.

• bool IsNoPrimaryKey { get; }
  Obsolete. Use IsNoIdColumn.

  The former name of IsNoIdColumn.

• bool IsInteger { get; }

  True when the id is a short, int or long.

Methods

• bool Equals(ArxIdColumn? other)

  Equal when both are NoIdColumn, or have the same name (ignoring case), type and generated flag.

  Parameter	Type	Description
  other	ArxIdColumn?	The id column to compare with.

Usage

.Table("account", ArxIdColumn.Generated<string>("account_id"))

Create one record and get its id, scenario 1

Used in:

• Create one record and get its idCreate
• Catch the errors a create meetsCreate
• Use fields named outside the name rule, through aliasesCreate
• The sample application
