I have a datetime column which has
Default Value: 2999-12-31

This field is generated as follow:

private System.DateTime _Valid_to = DateTime.Parse("12/31/2999 00:00:00");

Date is generated for US culture (probably based on Windows settings).

If I need an instance of this table on a thread with different culture I get an exception - for example:

Code: Select all

 v System.DateTimeParse.Parse(String s, DateTimeFormatInfo dtfi, DateTimeStyles styles)
   v System.DateTime.Parse(String s)
   v MyProject.DTO.ShopShipping..ctor() v C:\Projects\MyProject\MyProject\App_Data\DBSchema\MyProjectDB.Designer.cs:řádek 5132
   v lambda_method(Closure , c , Int32[] )
   v Devart.Data.Linq.Provider.h.c__DisplayClass5`1.a(c A_0)
   v Devart.Data.Linq.Provider.ObjectReader`1.g()
   v Devart.Data.Linq.Provider.EntityReader`3.b()
   v Devart.Data.Linq.Provider.ObjectReader`1.MoveNext()
   v Devart.Data.Linq.Provider.DataProvider.ReadQuery(CompiledQuery compiledQuery, IDbConnection con, f dataReader)
   v Devart.Data.Linq.Provider.DataProvider.ExecuteQuery(CompiledQuery compiledQuery, Object[] parentArgs, Object[] userArgs, Object lastResult)

Can you specify culture in generated code?

Thank you for the suggestion, we will consider changing this behaviour and inform you about the results.

Thank you for adding CultureInfo.InvariantCulture parameter. It would be nice if you could also change
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture to System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture
or add
use System.Globalization;

(Now script generates error CultureInfo doesn't exist...)

We've fixed the problem with no namespace specified for the CultureInfo class in the generated code. This fix is available in the latest 4.2.85 build of Entity Developer (and in the new builds of data providers and LinqConnect). The new build 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).

For the detailed information about the fixes and improvements available in Entity Developer 4.2.85, please refer to
