Using the Name Db will stop IDE from compiling

Radzen Studio Blazor Server
1

Hi,

by creating a net new blazor 5.0 server side app and connecting to a remote mysql database, and calling the name of the connection as Db will result in the status that the page will not compile anymore!

You should catch the user maintaining Db as the name for the connection....

I am afraid I don't understand what you mean.

Hi Korchev

i try to explain it better.

  1. Please create a net new Blazor application with Radzen.
  2. Open "Edit Data Source" and i tried it with MySQL
  3. Maintain the following into the details
    Name = Db <= this will cause the issue!!!
    Server = localhost (or where your server is located)
    Database = AnyDB which you know and can access
    Any User and Pass which will work and Infer the Shema.

After creationg of the CRUD pages, just click on RUN.

The App will throw an exception!

I tried to create some screenshots and attach them here but i don't know if the upload really will work.

The error is error CS0104: 'DbContext' is an ambiguous reference between 'SampleBlazor.Data.DbContext'

This happens because Radzen generates an EF context named after the DataSource with "Context" suffix. In this case this becomes "DbContext" which conflicts with the EF type name DbContext. Supporting this case would require significant breaking changes. We will instead now allow "Db" as the name of a data source.
