Hi DarrenOD,
>>How best can I perform this action or is there a better way to go about this?
As far as I know, it seems that we need create a new object and pass the value to this new object, like this:
using (var db = new BloggingContext())
{
var blog = db.Blog.Find(1003);
var newblog = new Blog() { Url = blog.Url };
foreach (var post in blog.Post)
{
var newPost = new Post() { Title = post.Title, Content = post.Content };
newblog.Post.Add(newPost);
}
db.Blog.Add(newblog);
db.SaveChanges();
Console.WriteLine("OK");
}
>>If I set the PK of the parent entity to 0 should EF handle this for me with child entities during an insert?
If you set the PK of the parent entity to 0 and then run SaveChanges(), it will throw an exception.
Best regards,
Cole Wu
