Simile alla risposta di Tobias Schittkowski ma C # e ha la capacità di avere più campi nelle strutture.
Per usarlo, basta posizionare un [Unico] su qualsiasi campo che desideri essere unico. Per le stringhe, dovrai fare qualcosa del genere (nota l'attributo MaxLength):
[Unique]
[MaxLength(450)] // nvarchar(450) is max allowed to be in a key
public string Name { get; set; }
perché il campo stringa predefinito è nvarchar (max) e non sarà consentito in una chiave.
Per più campi nel vincolo è possibile eseguire:
[Unique(Name="UniqueValuePairConstraint", Position=1)]
public int Value1 { get; set; }
[Unique(Name="UniqueValuePairConstraint", Position=2)]
public int Value2 { get; set; }
Innanzitutto, UniqueAttribute:
/// <summary>
/// The unique attribute. Use to mark a field as unique. The
/// <see cref="DatabaseInitializer"/> looks for this attribute to
/// create unique constraints in tables.
/// </summary>
internal class UniqueAttribute : Attribute
{
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the name of the unique constraint. A name will be
/// created for unnamed unique constraints. You must name your
/// constraint if you want multiple fields in the constraint. If your
/// constraint has only one field, then this property can be ignored.
/// </summary>
public string Name { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the position of the field in the constraint, lower
/// numbers come first. The order is undefined for two fields with
/// the same position. The default position is 0.
/// </summary>
public int Position { get; set; }
}
Quindi, includere un'estensione utile per ottenere il nome della tabella del database da un tipo:
public static class Extensions
{
/// <summary>
/// Get a table name for a class using a DbContext.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="context">
/// The context.
/// </param>
/// <param name="type">
/// The class to look up the table name for.
/// </param>
/// <returns>
/// The table name; null on failure;
/// </returns>
/// <remarks>
/// <para>
/// Like:
/// <code>
/// DbContext context = ...;
/// string table = context.GetTableName<Foo>();
/// </code>
/// </para>
/// <para>
/// This code uses ObjectQuery.ToTraceString to generate an SQL
/// select statement for an entity, and then extract the table
/// name from that statement.
/// </para>
/// </remarks>
public static string GetTableName(this DbContext context, Type type)
{
return ((IObjectContextAdapter)context)
.ObjectContext.GetTableName(type);
}
/// <summary>
/// Get a table name for a class using an ObjectContext.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="context">
/// The context.
/// </param>
/// <param name="type">
/// The class to look up the table name for.
/// </param>
/// <returns>

/// ObjectContext context = ...;
/// string table = context.GetTableName<Foo>();
/// </code>
/// </para>
/// <para>
/// This code uses ObjectQuery.ToTraceString to generate an SQL
/// select statement for an entity, and then extract the table
/// name from that statement.
/// </para>
/// </remarks>
public static string GetTableName(this ObjectContext context, Type type)
{
var genericTypes = new[] { type };
var takesNoParameters = new Type[0];
var noParams = new object[0];
object objectSet = context.GetType()
.GetMethod("CreateObjectSet", takesNoParameters)
.MakeGenericMethod(genericTypes)
.Invoke(context, noParams);
var sql = (string)objectSet.GetType()
.GetMethod("ToTraceString", takesNoParameters)
.Invoke(objectSet, noParams);
Match match =
Regex.Match(sql, @"FROM\s+(.*)\s+AS", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
return match.Success ? match.Groups[1].Value : null;
}
}
Quindi, l'inizializzatore del database:
/// <summary>
/// The database initializer.
/// </summary>
public class DatabaseInitializer : IDatabaseInitializer<PedContext>
{
/// <summary>
/// Initialize the database.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="context">
/// The context.
/// </param>
public void InitializeDatabase(FooContext context)
{
// if the database has changed, recreate it.
if (context.Database.Exists()
&& !context.Database.CompatibleWithModel(false))
{
context.Database.Delete();
}
if (!context.Database.Exists())
{
context.Database.Create();
// Look for database tables in the context. Tables are of
// type DbSet<>.
foreach (PropertyInfo contextPropertyInfo in
context.GetType().GetProperties())
{
var contextPropertyType = contextPropertyInfo.PropertyType;
if (contextPropertyType.IsGenericType
&& contextPropertyType.Name.Equals("DbSet`1"))
{
Type tableType =
contextPropertyType.GetGenericArguments()[0];
var tableName = context.GetTableName(tableType);
foreach (var uc in UniqueConstraints(tableType, tableName))
{
context.Database.ExecuteSqlCommand(uc);
}
}
}
// this is a good place to seed the database
context.SaveChanges();
}
}
/// <summary>
