Initializes a new instance of the ForeignKeyConstraint class.

Overloads

ForeignKeyConstraint(DataColumn, DataColumn)	Initializes a new instance of the ForeignKeyConstraint class with the specified parent and child DataColumn objects.
ForeignKeyConstraint(DataColumn[], DataColumn[])	Initializes a new instance of the ForeignKeyConstraint class with the specified arrays of parent and child DataColumn objects.
ForeignKeyConstraint(String, DataColumn, DataColumn)	Initializes a new instance of the ForeignKeyConstraint class with the specified name, parent and child DataColumn objects.
ForeignKeyConstraint(String, DataColumn[], DataColumn[])	Initializes a new instance of the ForeignKeyConstraint class with the specified name, and arrays of parent and child DataColumn objects.
ForeignKeyConstraint(String, String, String[], String[], AcceptRejectRule, Rule, Rule)	This constructor is provided for design time support in the Visual Studio environment. ForeignKeyConstraint objects created by using this constructor must then be added to the collection via AddRange(Constraint[]). Tables and columns with the specified names must exist at the time the method is called, or if BeginInit() has been called prior to calling this constructor, the tables and columns with the specified names must exist at the time that EndInit() is called.
