TimestampAttribute Class

Definition

Specifies the data type of the column as a row version.

public ref class TimestampAttribute sealed : Attribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Field | System.AttributeTargets.Property, AllowMultiple=false, Inherited=true)]
public sealed class TimestampAttribute : Attribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Field | System.AttributeTargets.Property, AllowMultiple=false, Inherited=true)>]
type TimestampAttribute = class

Remarks

A row version type (also known as a sequence number) is a binary number that is guaranteed to be unique in the database. It does not represent an actual time. Row version data is not visually meaningful. Therefore, when the TimestampAttribute attribute is used with a Dynamic Data field, the column is not displayed unless the ScaffoldColumnAttribute attribute of the column is explicitly set to true.

For more information, see rowversion.

Constructors

TimestampAttribute()

Initializes a new instance of the TimestampAttribute class.

Properties

TypeId

Returns the hash code for this instance.

(Inherited from Attribute)
GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
IsDefaultAttribute()

When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class.

Explicit Interface Implementations

_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)

Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers.

(Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)

Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface.

(Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32)

Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1).

(Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr)

Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object.
