DbSpatialServices()

Properties

Default

Gets the default services for the DbSpatialServices.

NativeTypesAvailable

Override this property to allow the spatial provider to fail fast when native types or other resources needed for the spatial provider to function correctly are not available. The default value is true which means that EF will continue with the assumption that the provider has the necessary types/resources rather than failing fast.
