C＃AutoMapper - Inhertaince mapping - 简单的例子

Question

A few days ago I asked a question for Mapping and I Familiar to Automapper then I can successfully Map Class B to A . Now I have another problem with inheritance.

I have four Classes.

Class A:

public class A : BaseViewModel {
    prop string p1  { get; set; }
    prop string p2  { get; set; }
    prop string p3  { get; set; }
}

Class BaseViewModel:

public class BaseViewModel {
    prop int Id {get; set;}
    prop string SomeP1 {get; set;}
}

Class B:

public class B : BaseModel {
    prop string p1  { get; set; }
    prop string p3  { get; set; }
}

Class BaseModel:

public class BaseModel {
    prop int Id {get; set;}
    prop string SomeP2 {get; set;}
}

Mapper:

Mapper.CreateMap<B, A>();
A a_obj= Mapper.Map<A>(b_obj);

My question is : How can I map Id in BaseViewModel to Id in BaseModel ?

I found a solution but It's a little difficult for me.

Answer 1

You can use this:

 Mapper.Initialize(cfg => cfg.CreateMap<B, A>());
 var a_obj = Mapper.Map<A>(b_obj);

Tip : You have to use automapper v6.*
