Class ValueConverter<TModel, TProvider>

Namespace

NextORM.Core

Assembly

nextorm.core.dll

Base class for a strongly typed property value converter. Subclasses override the typed ConvertToProvider(TModel?) and ConvertFromProvider(TProvider?) methods; the IPropertyValueConverter members are implemented here through a cached typed invoker so value types are not boxed on every row.

public abstract class ValueConverter<TModel, TProvider> : IPropertyValueConverter

Type Parameters

TModel

The CLR model type of the property.

TProvider

The provider-side type stored in the column.

Inheritance

Constructors

ValueConverter()

Initializes the converter and caches its typed invokers.

protected ValueConverter()

Properties

ConvertsNulls

Whether a SQL NULL is passed through the converter instead of being mapped to a null model value. Defaults to false.

public virtual bool ConvertsNulls { get; }

Property Value

bool

ProviderType

The provider-side type produced by ConvertToProvider(object?) and consumed by ConvertFromProvider(object?). The reader uses it to select the typed accessor and the write path uses it to type the bound parameter.

public Type ProviderType { get; }
