Inheritance: CodeFirstAttribute, IInitialisableAttribute

Public Methods

Method	Description
DataTypeAttribute ( string propertyEditorAlias = null, string name = null, Type converterType = null, DatabaseType dbType = DatabaseType.None, bool useConverter = true ) : System	Specifies that the decorated type is a code-first data type
Initialise ( Type targetType ) : void	Initialises the Factory property based on the type to which the attribute is applied.

Method	Description
GetConverterType ( ) : Type	Gets the converter type
MakeAutoConverterType ( Type targetType, DatabaseType &storageType ) : Type	Composes a generic converter which can convert the IUmbracoDataType to which this attribute is applied

Specifies that the decorated type is a code-first data type

public DataTypeAttribute ( string propertyEditorAlias = null, string name = null, Type converterType = null, DatabaseType dbType = DatabaseType.None, bool useConverter = true ) : System
propertyEditorAlias	string	The property editor alias for the data type
name	string	The instance name for the data type
converterType	System.Type	The default converter type which can convert between the code-first class and an Umbraco property of that data type
dbType	DatabaseType	The storage type used to store the data type value in the database
useConverter	bool	False to use no converter if converterType is null, true to attempt to use an automatic converter. /// Using an automatic converter requires the data type class to implement IUmbracoDataType[`Tdb]
return	System
