Hi,
I have the following tables:
- Data
- ID
- ...
- Relationships
- ParentID //points to Data:ID
- ChildID //points to Data:ID too
If I bring both the DATA and RELATIONSHIPS table into a dataset, is there a way to add the relationships into the model in a way that would add value? e.g. to enforce the constraints for example? If so I guess I'm interested in:
Q1 - Is it possible?
Q2 - What would the code look like to set up the relationships?
Q3 - How could this be leverage for say the Add_Child_to_Parent use case, where you want to the following (or in other words how much of the ADO.net relationship setup would do such checking/validation for me):
- check if the parent exists first
- if not then create parent
- check child exists then error out (as would be duplicate)
- create child
- create the RELATIONSHIP entry that tie the two together
Thanks
