[Solved] Timestamp version in fluent API

[Vanward]

Hello.

I have trouble with fluent configuration.
I try define mapping for Version column (byte[] in model, timestamp in DB), but the method HasProperty no overload for the data type byte[]. How should I declare the version?

public class User
{
    public string Name { get; set; }

    public int PasswordSalt { get; set; }

    public string Email { get; set; }

    public UserStatus Status { get; set; }

    public DateTime? LastActivityDate { get; set; }

    public DateTime RegistrationDate { get; set; }

    public Guid ActivationKey { get; set; }

    public Guid ApproveKey { get; set; }

    public DateTime? ApproveDate { get; set; }

    public byte[] Version { get; set; }
}

Hi Vanward,

 Unfortunately the current version of the Fluent Mapping API does not allow for mapping byte[] properties as version. However OpenAccess and SqlServer do allow for the timestamp column to be mapped to either long or byte[]. 

If you were to change the type of the version column to long you will be able to define your mapping. We will work on this issue and fix it in the following release. 

I hope this is helpful, please do let us know if you face further trouble.

Thank you very much for your reply:)
As I understand I need to define the "version" property as long and it will work?

Hi Vanward,

 You are correct, this should be the only thing you need to configure in order to get this to work, however if you do face further trouble be sure to let us know. If you have problems a sample project will be most appreciated and the easiest way for us to help you.

I hope this is helpful.
