Devart is delighted to introduce the release of Entity Developer 6.10. This version features Entity Framework Core 5 support with its table-per-type inheritances, many-to-many associations, and more data types.
Entity Developer can now detect many-to-many associations and table-per-type inheritances automatically when generating an Entity Framework Core 5.0 model from a database. You can also create these inheritances and associations manually via the corresponding editors or Model Refactoring Wizard.
Standalone Entity Developer application now targets Entity Framework Core 5.0 by default, when creating new Entity Framework Core models. You can select another version in the Create Model Wizard, when creating the model.
Here is the complete list of Entity Developer 6.10.1135 features:
- Visual Studio 2019 version 16.9 Preview is supported
- The bug with adding new arguments at the end of argument list instead of actual position in method signature by Update From Database Wizard is fixed
- The bug with placing procedure with no parameters in the Procedures node instead of being enlisted in its package's node of Update From Database Wizard tree in the case of Oracle 18c and higher is fixed
- Entity Framework Core 5.0 is supported
- The new features are supported in Entity Framework 5.0:
