How to call Stored Procedures with EntityFramework?

Question

I have generated an EF4 Model from a MySQL database and I have included both StoredProcedures and Tables.

I know how to make regular instert/update/fetch/delete oper

Basically you just have to map the procedure to the entity using Stored Procedure Mapping.

Once mapped, you use the regular method for adding an item in EF, and it will use your stored procedure instead.

Please see: This Link for a walkthrough. The result will be adding an entity like so (which will actually use your stored procedure)

using (var ctx = new SchoolDBEntities())
        {
            Student stud = new Student();
            stud.StudentName = "New sp student";
            stud.StandardId = 262;

            ctx.Students.Add(stud);
            ctx.SaveChanges();
        }
