上一节中EDM自动生成SchoolEntities类，该类继承DbContext

EntityFramework4.1之前的版本，EDM生成的类继承ObjectContext，使用ObjectContext稍微有点棘手，DbContext概念上与ObjectContext相似，它是ObjectContext的封装，DbContext是EF重要的组成部分，它是领域或实体类和数据库的桥梁

 

DbContext是主要的类负责数据和对象互相转化

EntitySet:  DbContext包含实体集合（DBSet<TEntity>），所有与数据库表对应的实体

Querying: DbContext将LINQ-to-Entity查询语言转化成SQL查询语言，并发送给数据库

Change Tracking: 当对象已经从数据库中查询到后，DbContext跟踪实体的变化情况

Persisting Data: DbContext执行插入、更新、删除操作

Caching: DbContext默认使用一级缓存，在一个context对象周期内，它缓存所有已经被查询的实体

Manage Relationship: DbContext管理对象间的关系

DbContext实例化，用来执行GRUD操作

using (var ctx = new SchoolDBEntities())
{
        
    //Can perform CRUD operation using ctx here..
}

 

从DbContext中获取ObjectContext

DbContext API比ObjectContext用起来简单些，然而，你可以从DbContext中得到ObjectContext的引用，

 

using (var ctx = new SchoolDBEntities())
{
    var objectContext = (ctx as System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.IObjectContextAdapter).ObjectContext;
        
    //use objectContext here..
}
