Part 6 How to seed database with test data using entity framework 

Thank you Thank you Thank you!! I've watched almost all the series you have offered and you are very clear and concise! This by far is more informative than any other EF resource I have found thus far.

Thank you very much Sir. Currently I'm working on a Silverlight application which utilizes MongoDB. Most companies however preferably use SqlServer and EntityFramework becomes a value added knowledge when it comes to interviews. Appreciate you taking time for the knowledge transfer.

If your code doesn't work, it's because here seeder class is inheriting from 'DropCreateDatabaseIfModelChanges', so if you don't change your entity class each time in any form e.g. adding new property like 'JobTitle', it won't recreate the database. So to solve the problem you can make seeder class inherit from 'DropCreateDatabaseAlways' instead.

Thanks for the videos Venkat.

thank you very much for this series! and other Tutorials!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I followed your instruction and it worked great. but i have questions. How about creating Department and Employee separately? (your example creates both at the same time)

Hi Venkat, there's no doubt about all your video uploads they're absolutely excellent.Pls can you help to upload a C# FileSystem or Directory watcher and another one on how to publish an application.I started learning programming with your videos and i must say a big thumbs up! Thanks

Thank you very for starting another great series. Before starting Entity framework i googled and found some limitation in it. If possible i would like to request you to record one video of entity framework pros and cons.

hei guys, the code works, you should just first comment the public List GetDepartments() method, otherwise you get an error, first when the database dropped and created then you can call the Method and you can add many property as you want and many BoundField as you want, but dont forget the code below has some failure it uses [ ] instead < >

Thank you very much, sir.

nice video on entity framework

thnx a lot sir

please make us a tutorial about Deploying Windows app and Windows Server 2012 R2 using MDT Printing and the most its most important options thank you very much for this series!

Hello Sir, In real time Projects/applications which Approach is the best? 1. Simple EF, 2. POCO(model) , 3. Code First ?? Please Let me know. My DB containing number of Procedures and Views.

hi what about migration model. or how i can add column to existing table. without losing the data.

Thanks

Thank you :)

I did creat a database but l will check this video if it works to seed the database

Here, whichever test data you have added it is displaying as it is in y application too. but then problem is when I add a new employee nothing happen.Why?

hello sir i am getting an error.please tell me what is the problem here. error: Server Error in '/' Application. A field or property with the name 'userCity1' was not found on the selected data source. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.Web.HttpException: A field or property with the name 'userCity1' was not found on the selected data source. Source Error: An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below. here is used UserCity table that contain id and userCity Name, and tblUser which contain FirstName,LastName,Gender etc, My DB is getting populated but still i am getting such error.please help ASAP

(Entity FrameWork Part-6) If we don't make changes in Model(i.e either in department or employee) and try to run the program by making modifications in EmployeeDBContextSeeder class it will run successfully but the changes which are done in EmployeeDBContextSeeder will not be reflected in the browser. So need your hep in understanding this concept of Data-Migration History and why those changes in EmployeeDBContextSeeder class are not reflected in the browser. Thank you in advance

Please Sir Upload Linq Video Tutorial.

Hi, Can anyone tell me how can we seed huge number (say 1000) of tables with 1000 records each?

how we overwrite an existing migration file

please provide LINQ videos Thank you.

Why aren't you using migrations instead of these complex examples?

Didn't work.
