Default value from SQL Server table’s column does not appear in entity.
Is it normal behavior?
I have tried to figure it out but with no result.
Thanks for any help.
Entity Framework provides an explicit value for each property. In SQL you can write a query that inserts a value into
[Field1]and leave[Field2]and[Field3]blank, and they will use the database default. But since Entity Framework generates the query based on the properties defined on the entity, all columns will always be given a value, so if you want to provide a default value, it will need to be set in the designer, I don’t think it gets automatically picked up when the entity model is created.
