Microsoft.Data.Schema.SchemaModel Namespace

  • Article

The Microsoft.Data.Schema.SchemaModel namespace houses the various base and core types for the Schema Model, which models the objects, relationships, and properties of the database objects. This namespace makes up an important part of the database schema provider (DSP) implementation.

Public class ModelRelationshipClass Represents the metadata class for relationships. This class cannot be inherited.
Public class ModelSchema Represents the metadata that is required to instantiate a ModelStore.
Public class ModelSerializationException Represents the thrown exception when the model XML serializer encounters an error.
Public class ModelStore Implements physical storage for a schema model instance.
Public class ModelStoreSerializationContext Defines the context of a serialization operation. This class supports the infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
Public class ParserConstructor Provides the base class for a class that instantiates a class that will parse a schema model for a specifically derived DatabaseSchemaProviderFamily.
Public class ReverseEngineer Used to create a new DataSchemaModel and to populate the model with schema objects from a deployed database.
Public class ReverseEngineerConstructor Represents a constructor class that defines define a reverse engineer feature.
Public class ReverseEngineerException Base exception class for the ReverseEngineer component.
Public class ReverseEngineerFilter Provides a collection of filter elements that are used to determine which elements to import from the source database during reverse engineering in Visual Studio Application Lifecycle Management (ALM).
Public class ReverseEngineerFilterElement Represents a filtering criterion to define which elements to import from the source database for reverse engineering.
Public class ScriptCache Used to access the ElementSource for a given model element.
Public class ScriptCacheException Represents the thrown exception when script cache classes encounter an error.
Public class ScriptDomGenerator Provides a base class for implementations that can generate a script Document Object Model (DOM) from one model element; it is used to generate an IScriptFragment from an IModelElement.
Public class ScriptDomGeneratorConstructor Used to create a ScriptDomGenerator.
Public class ScriptDomGeneratorException Represents a script Document Object Model (DOM) generator exception.
Public class ScriptGeneratorConstructor Provides a base class for creating a script generator for a specifically derived DatabaseSchemaProviderFamily.
Public class SourceCodePosition Specifies the location and position of the source code for a model element.

Interfaces

  Interface Description
Public interface IModelAnnotation Represents the model annotations that store feature-specific information about store elements.
Public interface IModelAnnotationHolder Represents a class that can have attached annotations.
Public interface IModelAnnotationRegister Provides an interface that, when added to the inheritance of a class, requires a method to register model annotations.
Public interface IModelElement Provides a basis for each element in a schema model.
Public interface IModelEntity Represents an entity linked to a ModelStore.
Public interface IModelMultiRelationship Used to add multiple relationships.
Public interface IModelMultiRelationship<TFrom, TTo> Used to add multiple relationships.
Public interface IModelNamed The elements in the model that are named should derive from this interface.
