Insert operation with many-to-many relationship using EF

Question

public class Candidate
{
  public int Id { get; set; }
  public string Name { get; set; }
  public ICollection Jobs { get         


        

Answer 1

A very simple solution is to create a VIEW of the xref table exactly as the table (view_tablename_raw). Then update that view in EF as an entity without foreign keys. From their use context.view_tablename_raw.Add(...) and it will work seamlessly.
