Is there a way for two entities with foreign key relations to be represented in class files keeping in mind that F# has to have the files in order?
Say I have a User and the user has books.
type User(books:seq<Book>) :
mutable _books = books
member public x.Books
with get() = _books
and set bookList = _books <- bookList
type Books(parentUser:User) :
mutable _parentUser = parentUser
member public x.ParentUser
with get() = _parentUser
and set newParentUser = _parentUser <- newParentUser
Now because of how F# works, this won't compile since it's basically a circular reference. User comes before Book therefore it doesn't know what a book is. If I move the book class up, the opposite is true.
Is there a way around the whole "Compile in order" way that F# works or do I need to set up entities and relations in another language?
You'll need to define both types in the same file using type User ... and Books
. See the section on Mutually Recursive Types on MSDN .
