Assembly:

Package:

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore v2.2.6

Overloads

HasMany(String, String)

Configures a relationship where this entity type has a collection that contains instances of the other type in the relationship. Note that calling this method with no parameters will explicitly configure this side of the relationship to use no navigation property, even if such a property exists on the entity type. If the navigation property is to be used, then it must be specified. After calling this method, you should chain a call to WithOne(String) to fully configure the relationship. Calling just this method without the chained call will not produce a valid relationship.
