Description

The following code example shows how to programmatically execute a BulkAssociationNavigator method instance of an external content type by using the BDC Runtime object model on the server.

Prerequisites

Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 or Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 on the server.
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 and Microsoft Visual Studio on the client computer.
At least one external content type registered in the BDC Metadata Store.

To use this example

Start Visual Studio and create a C# Console application project. Select .NET Framework 3.5 when you create the project.
From the View menu, click Property Pages to bring up the project properties.
In the Build tab, for the Platform target, select Any CPU.
Close the project properties window.
In Solution Explorer, under References, remove all project references except for System and System.Core.
Add the following references to the project:
1. Microsoft.BusinessData
2. Microsoft.SharePoint
3. Microsoft.SharePoint.BusinessData
Replace the autogenerated code in Program.cs with the code listed at the end of this procedure.
Replace the values of entity name, LobSystem name, and LobSystemInstance name with valid values.
Save the project.
Compile and run the project.
