EF Code First CTP5 - Using the name of the property as column name for foreign key

Given the following model:

public class Foo
{
    public int Id { get; set;}
    public Bar TheBar { get; set; }
}

public class Bar
{
    public int Id { get; set;}
}

EF tries to generate the FK column as BarId.

How can make it use TheBar?

I've tried the following:

protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
    modelBuilder.Entity<Foo>()
                .HasOptional(x => x.Bar)
                .WithMany()
                .IsIndependent开发者_运维知识库()
                .Map(x => x.MapKey(bar => bar.Id, "TheBar"));
}

But I get the following exception when trying to use the context:

Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
 ---> System.InvalidOperationException: Sequence contains more than one matching element

The error was caused by a bug in CTP5. If the Id property was defined in a base class (which is not shown in the code above because I didn't think it was related), it breaks.

I solved it by defining a base interface, but keeping the Id in each class.

You want the MapKey method in the fluent interface.

Alternately, if you do this throughout your model, CTP 5 has pluggable conventions, although this is, AFAIK, not well-documented yet.
