Dear users,

We are glad to announce the new features that are available in the Entity Framework support in the latest version:

Entity Framework 6 Release Candidate 1 is supported (MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Salesforce, DB2)
SharpMap 1.0 RTM is supported (MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL)
NetTopologySuite 1.13.1 is supported (MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL)
Devart.Data.Oracle.Entity.SharpMap.dll assembly is renamed to Devart.Data.Oracle.Entity.Spatials.dll (Oracle)
Devart.Data.MySql.Entity.Spatials.dll assembly is added (MySQL)
Devart.Data.PostgreSql.Entity.Spatials.dll assembly is added (PostgreSQL)
The config.DmlOptions.UseReturningClause configuration option (default value is True) is added to provide the possibility to turn off generation of RETURNING clause when obtaining database-generated values with INSERT/UPDATE commands (Oracle)
The behaviour is changed: the parameter, which participates in the IS NULL comparison, is cast to a particular type in the generated SQL query (PostgreSQL)
The bug with generating NRE when adding parameter to a command in IDbCommandInterceptor.ReaderExecuting in Entity Framework 6 is fixed (MySQL, Oracle, POstgreSQL, DB2)
The bug with applying datetime and time data types when generating SQL with UNION statements, which correspond to multiple Include constructions in LINQ to Entities, is fixed (PostgreSQL)
