Entity Developer Tutorial

Post by mhsimkin » Sat 13 Feb 2021 00:18

Hi.

Are there any examples, step-by-step guides on how to use Entity Developer both as a standalone app and as a VS2019 extension.

Thanks

Please navigate to the section of your ORM in Entity Developer documentation and follow the Creating Model tutorial.

For example, here is the Entity Framework tutorial: https://www.devart.com/entitydeveloper/ ... al-ef.html.

Thank you.

I saw that tutorial. However, there is no tutorial on how to execute linq queries in the ED application. I have my generated model open, whenever I try to execute a query, I get an error about no connection string.

I would like to have linq queries working so I can develop/debug some queries before adding them to my application.

Thanks

You are working with EF Core / .NET, aren't you?

Entity Developer is an ORM modeling and code generation tool. Refer to Microsoft documentation concerning querying data in EF Core: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/ef/core/querying/.

If you encounter Entity Developer-specific issue, specify the exact text of the error with its stack trace. Also, send us a small test project for reproducing the problem.
