Hello,

I have recently purchased Linqconnect for mysql. The problem I am having is when I have a table with a foreign key relationship. And I insert an item on the first table, it inserts on the second table as well.

for instance.

Code: Select all

var query = from c in db.catagories
                    select c;

Catagory someCatagory = query.First();

Product p  = new Product();
p.catagory = someCatagory;

db.Products.InsertOnSubmit(p);
db.SubmitChanges();

In this scenario, the catagory is inserted along with the product. I just want the product inserted and the catagory just a reference for the foreign key id.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thank you!

I've sent you a test project in a letter. In the sample, a row from the 'one' table of the one-to-many relation is selected, a new entity of the 'many' class is created and added to the corresponding collection of the 'one' entity. When submitting changes, a row is added only to the 'many' table in our environment.

Please specify what should be changed in the sample to reproduce the problem, or send us your test project.

I have further researched the problem and have found that somehow the relation is inserting a new record even though it has been set.

So take this example of three tables: Order, Orders_Products, Products

The Order table has an auto primary id.

The Orders_Products has an auto incrememt primary id, order_id, and product_id

The Products table just has a auto increment id and a name.

The Orders_Products table has a one to many relationship to both the order, and the products table.

When I do this

Code: Select all

OrdersProduct op = new OrdersProduct();
op.Order = CurrentOrder;
op.Product = SelectedProduct;

db.OrdersProducts.InsertOnSubmit(op);
db.SubmitChanges();

I am not sure why it is doing this. It inserts another version of the Product of which I referenced even though the product class clearly has its auto id set correctly to the correct reference.

I did receive the file you had sent me. I do not get the proble when there is only one relationship point to another table. But soon as I have on table that has two relationships to many. There is an issue.

I've sent you a sample in a letter, please check that it was not blocked by your mail filter. We couldn't reproduce the problem with two one-to-many associations either; please specify what should be changed in the sample for this purpose.

If possible, please send us the script defining the tables you are using or a complete sample with which the issue can be reproduced.

Also, could you please specify the versions of dotConnect for MySQL and MySQL server you are using?
