I am trying to implement a photo service thought OData with a Streaming Provider for uploading pictures. I added an attribute:

Code: Select all

But when I run the service I get this error:

Code: Select all

Schema specified is not valid. Errors: Model.AquiisModel.ssdl(1504,32) : error 0005: The 'HasStream' attribute is not allowed.

It seems to me that Entity Developer does not support this arribute too. I did not find a way to add this attribute.

Even though it looks like an issue of DataService, would you have any ideas what I am missing?

The reason for the problem is that the HasStream parameter is not available in the standard EDMX schema. To use it in the model, it is necessary to attach the Data Services schema and use its prefix before HasStream. For an example of this, please refer, e.g., to
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee473426.aspx

Entity Developer does not support such extensions of the standard schema, thus it is necessary to add them manually. We will analyze the possibility of supporting them and inform you about the results.

Yes that was it. Thanks for a prompt reply and help!

We've added the possibility of specifying the HasStream entity property in Entity Developer. This feature is available in the new 4.2.85 version of Entity Developer, which can can be downloaded from
http://www.devart.com/entitydeveloper/download.html
(the trial version) or from Registered Users' Area (for users with active subscription only).
