I have 1:N relationship between Program and Student tables which EF converted into navigation property. Now I want to delete all those records in this navigation students. I
Unless you have very special association called identifying relation between your program and students you should use something like this:
foreach(var student in program.Students.ToList())
{
program.Students.Remove(student); // Break realation
context.Students.DeleteObject(student); // Delete student
}
Removing student from the navigation property will only set FK in the student to null but the record will not be deleted. If FK is not nullable you will get an exception.
