Entity Framework + AutoMapper (entidade ao DTO e DTO à entidade)
Estou com alguns problemas ao usar o EF com o AutoMapper. = /
por exemplo
Tenho duas entidades relacionadas (clientes e pedidos) e são classes de DTO:
class CustomerDTO { public string CustomerID {get;set;} public string CustomerName {get;set;} public IList< OrderDTO > Orders {get;set;} }<p></p> <p>class OrderDTO { public string OrderID {get;set;} public string OrderDetails {get;set;} public CustomerDTO Customers {get;set;} }</p> <p>//when mapping Entity to DTO the code works Customers cust = getCustomer(id); Mapper.CreateMap< Customers, CustomerDTO >(); Mapper.CreateMap< Orders, OrderDTO >(); CustomerDTO custDTO = Mapper.Map(cust);</p>
//but when i try to map back from DTO to Entity it fails with AutoMapperMappingException. Mapper.Reset(); Mapper.CreateMap< CustomerDTO , Customers >(); Mapper.CreateMap< OrderDTO , Orders >(); Customers customerModel = Mapper.Map< CustomerDTO ,Customers >(custDTO); // exception is thrown here
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in Advance !
