Sitefinity OpenAccess Fail. Can't recognized MapType() o

Posted by Community Admin on 29-Dec-2010 00:00

Hi,

I am trying to create a new table in the Sitefinity Database and trying to use the OpenAccess Fluent API for it, but it doesn't let me. I am following the example exactly the way it's prescribed in OpenAccess Documentation but it still doesn't work.

What am i doing wrong?

using System.Web;

using System.Linq;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using Telerik.OpenAccess;

using Telerik.OpenAccess.Metadata.Fluent;

namespace SitefinityWebApp.Membership

public class SdnUserProfile

public int Id

get;

set;

public string DateofBirth

get;

set;

public bool CountryofCitizenShip

get;

set;

public class MyFluentMetadataSource : FluentMetadataSource

protected override IList<MappingConfiguration> PrepareMapping()

IList<MappingConfiguration> preparedConfigurations = new List<MappingConfiguration>();

MappingConfiguration<SdnUserProfile> profileConfiguration = new MappingConfiguration<SdnUserProfile>();

profileConfiguration.MapType().ToTable("SdnUserProfile");

profileConfiguration.HasProperty(

return preparedConfigurations;

Neither the MapType() nor the HasProperty() are recognized. What am i doing wrong?

Hello Preetham,

The problem is that we use custom build of OA - 2010.2.1013.8. The fluent API you use was introduced with Q3 where OA team officially announced the Fluent API. Most probably we will upgrade the OA assemblies after the official release in our weekly builds.
We also use the "old way" for mapping - Forward Mapping and actually you cannot use Default Mapping with Inheritance until we upgrade the referenced assembly in our code base and switch to the "new way" for mapping. This a task with higher priority for us and it we just need some time to convert all base logic.
