entity framework 4 - What is the best approach when trying to use POCO with EF4? -
i have read here 3 approaches towards implementing poco entity framework namely
- create edmx model , turn off code generation model not create heavy entities you. create poco classes have follow restrictions.
- you can use poco template can downloaded vs 2010.
- use code first approach code pocos , define mapping in code. need ef 4.0 feature ctp here.
i going opt second approach quicker things should keep in mind since derives objectcontext guess in way coupled? know third approach gives flexibility worth ? please share thoughts regarding this..thanks!
that link have provided "poco template" broken - assume mean this:
http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/23df0450-5677-4926-96cc-173d02752313
this template can (and should) used in conjuction option 1 have stated.
that's use in current application:
1 - create edmx model
2 - turn off code gen
3 - use poco generator generate poco classes
the poco's not derive - pure poco's.
