Remarks

Applying this attribute to a modeled table field with no database type parameter will specify that the field data type be used for all database types. Using a specific database type as a parameter to the attribute, e.g., [FieldDataType(DbType.DateTime2, DatabaseType.SQLServer)], means the field data type will only be applied to the specific database - however, the attribute allows multiple instances on the same identifier so you could specify different field data types for different database types. When multiple instances of the attribute are applied to the same identifier, the first attribute encountered that does not target a specific database will be considered the default value for all non-specified database types.

Constructors

FieldDataTypeAttribute(DbType)	Creates a new FieldDataTypeAttribute that will request use of specific DbType.
FieldDataTypeAttribute(DbType, DatabaseType)	Creates a new FieldDataTypeAttribute that will request use of specific DbType for the specified DatabaseType.

Properties

FieldDataType	Gets field data type that determines which DbType should be used when using database command operations.
TargetDatabaseType	Gets target DatabaseType for this FieldDataTypeAttribute.
TypeId	When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute)

GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
IsDefaultAttribute	When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute)
Match	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
