How to generate class code with automatic properties

Post by stan4th » Tue 25 Sep 2012 16:32

Hi,
when generating nHibernate class code how can I set it to generate properties using automatic properties?
e.g.

Code: Select all

public virtual string Surname { get; set; }
Thanks

Our code generation requires complete (not automatic) properties.
If you need automatic properties, please modify template with a built-in T4 Editor of Entity Developer.

Save the model, right click on the template in Model Explorer > Copy to Model Folder. Then double click the template, find the code which generates the properties (the GenerateProperty method) and modify it correspondingly to meet your requirements.

The behaviour is changed: .NET auto-properties are generated in code if both Property ChangeNotifiers and Property Change Partial Methods properties of a template are set to False. We will post here when the corresponding build of Entity Developer is available for download.
