Description

ContentType (SPMetal)

Specifies that a content type should be included in code generation and modifies which columns in the content type are included in code generation.

Remarks

A ContentType element cannot have both an ExcludeOtherColumns element and an IncludeHiddenColumns element.

Example

The following shows the ExcludeOtherColumns element in use. The presence of the element ensures that code generated for the Contact content type class has properties for only the three columns explicitly represented by Column elements.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Web AccessModifier="Internal" xmlns="https://schemas.microsoft.com/SharePoint/2009/spmetal">
  <ContentType Name="Contact" Class="Contact">
    <Column Name="ContId" Member="ContactId" />
    <Column Name="ContactName" Member="ContactName1" />
    <Column Name="Category" Member="Cat" Type="String"/>
    <ExcludeOtherColumns />
  </ContentType>
  <ExcludeContentType Name="Order"/>
  <List Name="Team Members" Type="TeamMember">
