    <p>I have an abstract class that's autogenerated by a code template. We then have several classes that derive from this class. There is a particular property on that class that for one of the derived implementations I would like to override the getter and setter. Unfortunately I can find no way of overriding the property as it is not declared virtual.</p> <p>So as another approach, I decided to make the property protected, and then in the partial class (<code>.shared.cs</code>) create a public virtual property that effectively wraps the protected one. Then I can override this in the one specific implementation.</p> <p>So on the server side this looks fine, but once I build it, it turns out that the partial shared file that ria generates for me on the client seems to have no visibility of the protected property.</p> <p><code>ClassA.cs</code>:</p> <pre><code>//------------------------------------------------------------------------------ // &lt;auto-generated&gt; // This code was generated from a template. // // Manual changes to this file may cause unexpected behaviour in your application. // Manual changes to this file will be overwritten if the code is regenerated. // &lt;/auto-generated&gt; //------------------------------------------------------------------------------ namespace ABC.Web.Models.DomainModel { using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations; [RoundtripOriginal] public abstract partial class ClassA { public int Id { get; set; } public string Title { get; set; } protected string ApplicationNumber { get; set; } } } </code></pre> <p><code>ClassA.shared.cs</code></p> <pre><code>namespace ABC.Web.Models.DomainModel { using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Runtime.Serialization; public abstract partial class ClassA { [IgnoreDataMember] public virtual string ApplicationNumberAccessor { get { return this.ApplicationNumber; } set { this.ApplicationNumber = value; } } } } </code></pre> <p>This effectively gives the error <code>'ABC.Web.Models.DomainModel.ClassA' does not contain a definition for 'ApplicationNumber' and no extension method 'ApplicationNumber' accepting a first argument of type 'ABC.Web.Models.DomainModel.ClassA' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)</code></p> <p>When double clicking the error it takes me to the client version of the file, where for some reason it can not see that protected property.</p> <p>Any idea why? or alternatively is there a way (using Database first) to mark a field so it generates as virtual?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
