Remarks

An EntityGroup is used within the framework to hold entities of a specific type. With the exception of some events provided by the EntityGroup, you will rarely need to work with this class directly.

The EntityGroup provides several pre- and post- change events at both the property and entity levels. You can subscribe to EntityPropertyChanging and EntityPropertyChanged to handle property-level changes to your entities. You can subscribe to EntityChanging and EntityChanged to listen for any change to your entities.

You can obtain an EntityGroup instance from an EntityManager using EntityManager.GetEntityGroup.
