guids code first ctp5

I am getting the following error with EF4 code first ctp5 and dotConnect for SQLite:

System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'System.Guid' to type 'System.Byte[]'.

Is there anything that needs to be done to save Guid to SQLite through dotConnect? When I exclude this property from my class, everything works perfectly. The properties are all mapped, the table gets created. No problems. But I have to be able to save a Guid.

Thank you for the report, I have reproduced the problem.
I will let you know about the results of our investigation.

Thanks. I think it's the only thing holding us back on moving forward. It would be great if you fix it.

Just wondering if anything had been done with this. *bump*

We have fixed the problem with Guids. The fix will be available in the nearest build (unfortunately, not in the one released today)
