Can someone tell me how to do this work?
There is a tutorial?

I create the edml, csdl, ssdl, msl and other files, but where I should put it?

When I run the projet I got: "Unable to load the specified metadata resource. "
Here is the connection string
"metadata=res://*/OdiarioModel.csdl|res://*/OdiarioModel.ssdl|res://*/OdiarioModel.msl;provider=Devart.Data.Oracle;provider connection string=""User Id=xxx;Password=xxx;Server=xxx;Direct=True;Sid=xe;Persist Security Info=True""", "OdiarioEntities")

My files are in the root path of an MVC 2 project.

Change the connection string in the way to point on the generated files, for instance

Code: Select all

"metadata=OdiarioModel.csdl|OdiarioModel.ssdl|res:OdiarioModel.msl;provider=Devart.Data.Oracle;provider connection string=""User Id=xxx;Password=xxx;Server=xxx;Direct=True;Sid=xe;Persist Security Info=True"

Now I got "The specified metadata path is not valid. A valid path must be either an existing directory, an existing file with extension '.csdl', '.ssdl', or '.msl', or a URI that identifies an embedded resource."

It works if I put the full path... now I'll try the relative one!

We have fixed the problem with metadata generation. Look forward to the next build.
