Dear users,

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

Entity Framework 6.1.0 RTM is supported (MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Salesforce, DB2)
Entity Framework 6.1.0 Tools for Visual Studio 2012 & 2013 is supported (MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Salesforce, DB2)
The use of the JSON data type in string canonical functions and comparison operators (equality and inequality) is supported (PostgreSQL)
The releasing of memory, which was allocated for commands and readers of ObjectContext / DbContext, is improved (MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Salesforce, DB2)
The behaviour is changed: now SQL is generated without additional sorting in a subquery when working with Oracle 11g/10g/9i and during the work with paging operations with .OrderBy().Skip().Take() (Oracle)
The bug with the comparison operators (equality and inequality), where one or both of its arguments are the result of an expression based on the CLOB/NCLOB columns, is fixed (Oracle)
The bug with generating Code-First Migrations for the properties with DatabaseGeneratedOption.None for Oracle12c in Entity Framework 6 is fixed (Oracle)
The bug with generating DDL for the Identity property, which is a part of composite entity key, in run-time (Code-First CreateDatabase(), Code-First Migrations) and design-time (EDM Designer) is fixed (Oracle)
The bug with determining correct datatypes of data retrieved by some EntitySQL queries is fixed (Oracle)
The bug related to the "UNION types json and character varying cannot be matched" error is fixed (PostgreSQL)

New features in the Entity Framework support!
