	Nullable<DatabaseGeneratedOption> databaseGeneratedOption
)

Parameters

databaseGeneratedOption
Type: System.Nullable<DatabaseGeneratedOption>

The pattern used to generate values for the property in the database. Setting 'null' will cause the default option to be used, which may be 'None', 'Identity', or 'Computed' depending on the type of the property, its semantics in the model (e.g. primary keys are treated differently), and which set of conventions are being used.

Return Value

Type: System.Data.Entity.ModelConfiguration.Configuration.DateTimePropertyConfiguration

The same DateTimePropertyConfiguration instance so that multiple calls can be chained.
