表示概念模型中的实体容器。 EntityContainer 是实体集和关联集的逻辑分组。

public ref class EntityContainer sealed : System::Data::Metadata::Edm::GlobalItem

public sealed class EntityContainer : System.Data.Metadata.Edm.GlobalItem

type EntityContainer = class
    inherit GlobalItem

Public NotInheritable Class EntityContainer
Inherits GlobalItem

示例

下面的代码示例演示如何利用连接获取元数据工作区，然后使用该元数据工作区在指定的数据模型中检索有关实体容器的信息。请注意，元数据工作区是一个为检索元数据提供支持的运行时服务组件。

该代码示例使用 CSpace 和 SSpace 指定模型。 CSpace 表示概念性模型的默认名称。 SSpace 表示存储模型的默认名称。

方法 GetEntityContainers 获取实体容器的集合，然后循环访问该集合以获取指定容器中每个实体集和关联集。代码示例使用 AdventureWorks 模型。

注解

在概念级别上，EntityContainer 类表示将映射到存储元数据架构中的数据库对象的容器。在存储级别上，EntityContainer 类描述了为基于模型构建的应用程序持久保存数据的表和/或键关系。有关概念模型中的实体容器的详细信息，请参阅实体容器。
