Log Queries executed by Entity Framework DbContext

Question

I\'m using EF 6.0 with LINQ in MVC 5 project. I want to log all the SQL queries executed by the Entity Framework DbContext for debugging/performance-measurement purpose.

Answer 1

You can use this line to log the SQL queries to the Visual Studio "Output" window only and not to a console window, again in Debug mode only.

public class YourContext : DbContext
{   
    public YourContext()
    {
        Database.Log = sql => Debug.Write(sql);
    }
}
