In This Topic

Generates a data definition language (DDL) script that creates schema objects (tables, primary keys, foreign keys) based on the contents of the StoreItemCollection parameter and targeted for the version of the database corresponding to the provider manifest token.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Protected Function DbCreateDatabaseScript( _
   ByVal providerManifestToken As System.String, _
   ByVal storeItemCollection As System.Data.Entity.Core.Metadata.Edm.StoreItemCollection _
) As System.String

'Usage
 
Dim instance As VistaDBProviderServices
Dim providerManifestToken As System.String
Dim storeItemCollection As System.Data.Entity.Core.Metadata.Edm.StoreItemCollection
Dim value As System.String
 
value = instance.DbCreateDatabaseScript(providerManifestToken, storeItemCollection)

protected System.string DbCreateDatabaseScript( 
   System.string providerManifestToken,
   System.Data.Entity.Core.Metadata.Edm.StoreItemCollection storeItemCollection
)

Parameters

providerManifestToken: The provider manifest token identifying the target version.
storeItemCollection: The structure of the database.

Return Value

A DDL script that creates schema objects based on the contents of the StoreItemCollection parameter and targeted for the version of the database corresponding to the provider manifest token.

Remarks

Individual statements should be separated using database-specific DDL command separator. It is expected that the generated script would be executed in the context of existing database with sufficient permissions, and it should not include commands to create the database, but it may include commands to create schemas and other auxiliary objects such as sequences, etc.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
