Hi,

I have downloaded and installed beta 3 of Ado.net entity framework and
played with this a little bit and it's quite cool - I can query the
database and get the objects etc. The only thing I can't dig to is how
to actually create custom attributes in the classes that the framework
has generated for me.

For example, say, I have a simple table:

UserId,
UserName,
UserAge

and I want a custom properry, say, IsOld that will be calculated at
runtime, something like

public bool IsOld{
get{
if (UserAge > 90){return true;}
else {return false;}

}
}

how do I do this?

Thanks for all your comments!
 
Hi,

Generated classes are partial.
Thus you can simply create another partial class with same name living in
same namespace and add your property there.
