Entity Framework Migrations - Enable AutoMigrations along with added migration

Question

I\'m utilizing Entity Framework 4.3 Migrations in my project. I would like to use Automatic migrations so that when I make modifications to my domain objects and my context cla

Answer 1

You need to pass a configuration that has the AutomaticMigrationsEnabled set to true in the constructor. Something like this should help:

Database.SetInitializer(new MigrateDatabaseToLatestVersion());

with MyConfiguration being something like:

public class MyConfiguration : Core.Migrations.Configuration
{
    public MyConfiguration { this.AutomaticMigrationsEnabled = true; }
}

DISCLAIMER: Just hacked this in, so small tweaks might be required to get this to compile

EDIT:

Just checked with EF 4.3.1 and the code is like this for the initializer:

Database.SetInitializer(new MigrateDatabaseToLatestVersion());

and this for the configuration class:

public class MyConfiguration : System.Data.Entity.Migrations.DbMigrationsConfiguration
{
    public MyConfiguration()
    {
        this.AutomaticMigrationsEnabled = true;
    }
}
