Debug code-first Entity Framework migration codes

Question

I\'m using Entity Framework code first in my website and I\'m just wondering if there is any way to debug the migration codes. You know, like setting breakpoints and stuff l

Answer 1

You could add Console.WriteLine statements to the migration code (not a great solution)

Note, the messages are only shown if you run the migration code using the migrate.exe utility (in pacakges\EntityFramework.x.y.z\tools). They will not display if you run the migration through the Package Manager console.
