Inheritance with only one known discriminator

Post by patahel » Fri 01 Apr 2016 07:15

Hi
I've to write a data acces layer to an existing database. Most of the tables store a column, which identifies the coresponding "user". But it is never really referenced trough foreign keys. The table which contains the "user" is a multipurpuse/parameter (string) table. May you know the database from Sage OfficeLine.

Table which stores the "users" and all sort of other strings: KHKMandanten

Code: Select all

SettingId (int, key)
Year (short, key)
ClientId (short, key)
Description (varchar)
Value (varchar)
Type (short)
If the row is storing a "user" the Description column is storing "Mandant", every other value is unknown, because it is storing different parameters for the user.

How do I create a entity for the Table and one for the User (which ofcourse contains navigation properties)

Best regards
patahel

Sorry, but your question exceeds the goals of our support. The Devart ADO.NET Providers for Clouds product line (https://www.devart.com/dotconnect/#cloud/) doesn't include a connectivity solution for Sage OfficeLine.
