TypeMap

This attribute maps a property to a specific database type via System.Data.DbType.

This attribute takes precedence over the type-level mapping defined in TypeMapper.

The following example maps a System.DateTime property to DbType.DateTime2:

public class Person
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    [TypeMap(DbType.DateTime2)] // Mapping this to 'DateTime2'
    public DateTime DateOfBirth { get; set; }
}

The following example maps a byte[] property to DbType.Binary:

public class Person
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    [TypeMap(DbType.Binary)] // Mapping this to 'Binary'
    public byte[] Image { get; set; }
}
