EF4 CodeFirst working Oracle samples

Hi there,

I'm looking for code first EF4 samples working with DevArt Oracle EF provider.

No Microsoft example works so far.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have sent you a simple example.
We plan to blog about CTP 5 support in the near future.

How does it work in Oracle:

[DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGenerationOption.Identity)]

As far as I know, there is no identity columns...

Our code creates a sequence and a BEFORE INSERT trigger initializing the auto-increment column.

Can I get this generated Id automatically after SaveChanges?

EF code should populate this value automatically, if you have set the StoreGeneratedPattern attribute to Identity (actually, if the trigger and sequence are generated, you already have set this attribute correctly).

We have released an article dealing with Code First support peculiarities here. It incorporates the changes introduced in EF 4.1 RTW.
