How to fix type names conflicts in Dynamic Data

Question

We're working in a Dynamic Data project that will handle entities coming from two different namespaces: myModel.Abby and myModel.Ben.

whose classes are:

---

Abby

myModel.Abby.Car

myModel.Abby.Lollipop

---

Ben

myModel.Ben.Car

myModel.Ben.Apple

---

So myModel.Abby.Car and myModel.Ben.Car are homonym. when I try to register both ObjectContext's, an exception is thrown telling us that there are type name conflicts between the mentioned classes (although the types belong to different namespaces).

How can we overcome type-name conflicts, caused by repeated type names among different namespaces?

Answer 1

I don't think there is a way around this.

DynamicData routes to the correct forms based on type names. Look in the URL, the type name is always up there someplace. How can DD know which type you mean to interact with?
