• Entity Framework 5 + Enumerations => What’s not to love?
  
  Entity Framework 5 now supports enumerations (when using Visual Studio 2012 and targeting the.NET 4.5 framework). Next we’ll generate an entity data model from the database. Using enumerations with Entity Framework 5. We need to change the type of the ‘Habitable’ column in the database to a tinyint and we need to modify the information in the conceptual schema to inform the entity framework of our change in design: The screenshot shows that we need to change the underlying type as well as check the “Set Flags attribute”.

• Reporting using Entity Framework
  
  Technologies like Entity Framework help us convert data in the database to.NET objects and add logic. 39: Next step is to create a WCF service application, add an Entity Framework model and drag the two views onto the model: Next we’ll implement two methods to use the Entity Framework model to select the data and return a list of CustomerView or OrderView objects. For many years the mantra for implementing business logic in your line of business application has been: “don’t put it in the database, don’t put it in the user interface”. Life is good.

  For each table a 2 classes are generated, the first is the entity class itself. The second is a map class that defines the mapping between the entity and the database. Another thing I noticed was that the entities only have their collection properties marked as virtual. The other properties containing the entity data are not virtual. The EF team at Microsoft just release a first CTP of the EF 4.1 Power Tools making it even easier to do Code First development with an existing database. The only gotcha is you have to make sure the EF4.1 Adding Ef4.1 Enjoy!
