IEntityMaterializerSource Interface

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Query

Assembly:

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.dll

Package:

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore v9.0.0

Source:

IEntityMaterializerSource.cs

Defines a source for generating Expression trees that read values from a ValueBuffer or creates entity instances.

This type is typically used by database providers (and other extensions). It is generally not used in application code.

public interface IEntityMaterializerSource

type IEntityMaterializerSource = interface

Public Interface IEntityMaterializerSource

Derived

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Query.EntityMaterializerSource

Remarks

The service lifetime is Singleton. This means a single instance is used by many DbContext instances. The implementation must be thread-safe. This service cannot depend on services registered as Scoped.

See Implementation of database providers and extensions and How EF Core queries work for more information and examples.
