PreserveName Property

Whether the method prefix should be retained when used in an EntityQuery.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Property PreserveName As Boolean

'Usage
 
Dim instance As QueryAttribute
Dim value As Boolean
 
instance.PreserveName = value
 
value = instance.PreserveName

public bool PreserveName {get; set;}

Remarks

By default PreserveName is false and the method prefix ("Get", "Fetch", "Find", "Query", "Retrieve", or "Select") will not be used in an EntityQuery. For example, if you have a method named "GetFoos" which returns Foo objects, the query would be: var query = new EntityQuery<Foo>("Foos") If PreserveName is true for the method, then the query would be: var query = new EntityQuery<Foo>("GetFoos")

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
