The third series of Entity Framework tutorials, Getting Started with the Entity Framework Using ASP.NET MVC, has been published on the ASP.NET site. The tutorials create a sample application similar to the one that the two Web Forms series (Getting Started with the Entity Framework and Continuing with the Entity Framework) create. You can download a Visual Studio project that is a finished version of the series. Besides using MVC rather than Web Forms, this series is also different in that it uses the C... (more)

As the word “code-first” implies, the EF 4.1 offers a code centric data programming paradigm. From a coder’s point of view, it requires little effort to map a very clean object model to a database. This style of programming is idea for explorative, bottom-up kind fsharp programmers. Since EF 4 CTP4 release, there have already been many buzzes. The following two blogs have in-depth EF 4.1 feature overview... (more)

I was in Redmond this last week and talked to Jeff Derstadt, the Lead Developer on Entity Framework Code First (or, as I say, EF Magic Unicorn). What's the deal with this new feature in Entity Framework? What about the bad rap that EF got back in the day? What's new in EF4 and how does EF Code First sit on that? Which is the right choice, Model First, Database First or Code First? All of this plus demos in this off-the-cuff interview. There's lots of good info in this video including some insight into mu...

Generating EF Code First model classes from an existing database - Jon Galloway
published 806 days, 13 hours, 39 minutes ago posted by iftekharahmedamitiftekharahmedamit 807 days, 12 hours, 2 minutes ago

Generating EF Code First model classes from an existing database Entity Framework Code First is a lightweight way to "turn on" data access for a simple CLR class. As the name implies, the intended use is that you're writing the code first and thinking about the database later. However, I really like the Entity Framework Code First works, and I want to use it in existing projects and projects with pre-existing databases. For example, MVC Music Store comes with a SQL Express database that's pre-loaded wi... (more)

Take a look at how to use the Entity Framework via its model first design concepts. When building out an application which is based off of the Entity framework you have multiple options, you can either build your model off of your existing database or build your database of your existing model. This episode will explore how you start with your entity model and build out your database. (more)

Earlier this week the data team released the CTP5 build of the new Entity Framework Code-First library.  In my blog post a few days ago I talked about a few of the improvements introduced with the new CTP5 build.  Automatic support for enforcing DataAnnotation validation attributes on models was one of the improvements I discussed.  It provides a pretty easy way to enable property-level validation logic within your model layer. You can apply validation attributes like [Required], [Range], and [Regular... (more)

The Entity Framework 4 CTP5 was just released. There are lots of new features that affect the core use of Entity Framework as well as Code First. I’ll run through some of these features one blog post at a time. The first is the new T4 Template that gets installed, the ADO.NET DbContext Generator.   This creates a more lightweight context that inherits from DbContext. DbContext was introduced in CTP4 and exposes a simpler way of working with most commonly used features of ObjectContext.   The POCO ... (more)

Looking at EF4 CTP5 in Parts: Part 4–Working with New and Existing Databases in Code First : Don't Be Iffy

One of the neat features of Code First  in CTP5 for those who are starting from total scratch…no database at all.. is that there is default behavior for working with a database. You don’t even need a database connection string. If you do not specify a connection string anywhere …code or config…then Code First will make a presumption about the database.  THe default presumption is that the database is the same name as your context class and is a local SQL Server Express instance. Here’s an example. I’ve... (more)

One of my most oft-repeated bits of EF guidance is that “a query’s job is to execute”. If you write a query such as var myquery=context.Customers.Where(c=>Id==24); Any time you do soomthing with myquery, such as call ToList or Count or bind it to a databinding control, it will be exeucted on the database.

This post will provide an introduction to Code First development. Code First allows you to define your model using C# or VB.Net classes, optionally additional configuration can be performed using attributes on your classes and properties or by using a Fluent API. Your model can be used to generate a database schema or to map to an existing database. (more)
