We don't have a possibility to add proper support for the synonyms in Entity Framework.

Andrey,

Does you remark about the support for synonyms still hold or has something changed after 9 months? We are trying to use synoniems of some PROCs. This results in an System.Data.EntityCommandExecutionException. The inner exception is a System.ArgumentNullException.

Same situation works perfectly without using synonyms.

Thanks,

Niels

note: problem occures only with PROCs EF can retrieve data via a synonym to a table or view.

Could you please send us a small test project illustrating the error?
Please include the scripts of the DB objects used in it, if possible.
