entity-framework-4.1

Here's a sample scenario that illustrates the problem I am having. Here is the DB script to generate the database in SQL 2008: USE [master] GO /****** Object: Database [EFTesting] Script Date: 08/15/2011 09:56:33 ******/ CREATE DATABASE [EFTesting] ON PRIMARY ( NAME = N'EFTesting', FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.SQLEXPRESS\MSSQL\DATA\EFTesting.mdf' , SIZE = 3072KB , MAXSIZE = UNLIMITED, FILEGROWTH = 1024KB ) LOG ON ( NAME = N'EFTesting_log', FILENAME = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.SQLEXPRESS\MSSQL\DATA\EFTesting_log.ldf' , SIZE = 1024KB , MAXSIZE

i am working on a legacy oracle database that uses character literals T and F in the database for its boolean values however i would like the Entity property to reflect a proper boolen value is there a wy to convert this value when the model is binding it is a read only database so inserts are not important War I would suggest wrapping up or extending the generating type to add this sort of functionality ... entity framework will generate objects that basically match what the data in the database tables looks like so if you have a table called "Contacts" you'll get an object called "Contacts",

I have a fairly simple composite one to many relationship defined using POCO/Fluent API, one column of which is a string. I've discovered that the data in this column in our database is inconsistent in terms of case ie 'abb', 'ABB' - this is our main ERP system and is fed by a variety of sources which are mainly beyond our control. This is leading to problems using EF code first when joining to related tables as the join is silently ignored by EF when the case of PK/FK is different even though SQL Profiler shows the correct SQL being executed and results returned. I'm using WCF so have lazy

I am using EF 4.1, and I create a normal EF edmx file. I generate it from a DB. When it's been generated I rightclick and select add code generation item, to generate new classes, and use the DbContext instead. I use the template DbContext generator. Everything works fine. Then I trie to query the context: using (var context = new PasDBEntities()) { var client=context.ClientCompanies.SingleOrDefault(_=>_.ID==clientCompanyId); if(client!=null) I have no problem creating a new instance of the context but when I try to query it the problem occur. I get stuck on the UnintentionalCodeFirstException

EF 4.1 RC. I want to run some code after an entity has been added/attached to the DBContext. Is there an event for this (I can't find one). Basically I want to check if the added/attached entity is of a certain interface and if it is, do some stuff with it. Thanks! Unfortunatelly there are no such events available and there are no extension points to add such events. That is in my opition one of the biggest EF failure. The extensibility = zero. The only thing you can do is override SaveChanges and before executing base.SaveChanges use ChangeTracker to get all attached and added entities of

I'm at a COMPLETE loss - I'm having super wierd issues with what I still really dont even understand... I'm running Entity Framework 4.1, MySql 5.xx and my MySql Connector is v 6.4.4 - everything works beatifully locally however whenever I upload to the server I receive: Could not load file or assembly 'MySql.Data, Version=6.3.6.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040) Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of

I implemented a bidirectional 1:1 relationship based on this answer: Primary /Foreign Key in Entity Framework I define the bidirectional relation this way: public class Student { public virtual int StudentId { get; set; } public virtual Anamnesis Anamnesis { get; set; } . . . } public class Anamnesis { [Key, ForeignKey("Student")] public int AnamnesisId { get; set; } public virtual Student Student { get; set; } . . . } where, Student is the principal entity and Anamnesis it the entity that shares the PK. Now I'd like that the relationship created had a Delete Rule = CASCADE. Actually, the

Here's an overview of how my solution looks: Here's my PizzaSoftwareData class: namespace PizzaSoftware.Data { public class PizzaSoftwareData : DbContext { public DbSet<Customer> Customers { get; set; } public DbSet<Order> Orders { get; set; } public DbSet<Product> Products { get; set; } public DbSet<User> Users { get; set; } } } According to an example on Scott Guthrie's blog, you have to run this code at the beginning of the application in order to create/update the database schema. Database.SetInitializer<PizzaSoftwareData>(new CreateDatabaseIfNotExists<PizzaSoftwareData>()); I'm running
