2nd last paragraph |
Text reads: "Figure 4-2 attempts to help you visualize this relationship the way the model builder sees it."
Issue: The preceding Example 4-5 creates a 0..1 to Many relationship between Lodging and Destination. Figure 4-2 shows a 1 to Many relationship. The subsequent paragraph and Example 4-6 is actually the relationship matching Figure 4-2.

After "Or you can create a separate statement" |
modelBuilder.Entity<Person>()
.HasKey(p => t.SocialSecurityNumber);
Should be:
modelBuilder.Entity<Person>()
.HasKey(p => p.SocialSecurityNumber);
Or:
modelBuilder.Entity<Person>()
.HasKey(t => t.SocialSecurityNumber);

4th paragraph after 2nd code block just before the next section |
(I am using the Kindle version - I believe that is the Mobi format)
The wrong namespace is referenced in the following paragraph:
"You'll notice that the DatabaseGeneratedOption enums are within the System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations namespace in the EntityFramework.dll..."
The namespace is partially right, it is only missing ".Shema" as in "System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.Schema"
I don't what version of the EntityFramework.dll assembly you were using at time of writing but I am using dll version 6.0.0.0, Runtime v4.0.30319.
Thanks,
John
