I have a table used for multiply type of category and it contains a Discriminator column named ‘ClassName’ to specify the type of object to load. The ClassName column is non nullable with a default value of ‘Category’

My problem is when saving a new item , I get the error :
‘Cannot insert the value null into column ClassName’ table Category.

I tought that ef would set the ClassName value base on the new object class.
How can I save my object with the right ‘ClassName’ value ?

    I changed my db Structure to accept null. EF will set null if the object name match the table name and will set the discreminator name for the derived classes.
