Timestamp generated datatype by code

Question

I should have timestamp datatype row inside my SQL Server database. I'm using code-first approach so I want to generate this field from my domain util class.

So, how to declare this property to be generated as timestamp in the database?

Do you want the database to store a timestamp on insert or update? — Aniket Inge

You could use a byte array decorated with the [Timestamp] attribute:

[Timestamp] 
public byte[] SomeTimestamp { get; set; }

you can use this sample

...
       public byte[] TimeStamp { get; set; }
    }

     public class UserModelConfiguration: EntityTypeConfiguration<User> {
            public UserModelConfiguration() {
                Property(p => p.TimeStamp).IsRowVersion();            
            }
        }
