Here is a possible clue. If you were to install EFCodeFirst.SqlServerCompact using NuGet Package manager, and look in: Visual Studio 2010\Projects\MyProject\packages\EFCodeFirst.SqlServerCompact.0.8.8482\Content, it does things for your web app like:

public static class AppStart_SQLCEEntityFramework {
    public static void Start() {
        DbDatabase.DefaultConnectionFactory = new SqlCeConnectionFactory("System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0");

        // Sets the default database initialization code for working with Sql Server Compact databases
        // Uncomment this line and replace CONTEXT_NAME with the name of your DbContext if you are 
        // using your DbContext to create and manage your database
        //DbDatabase.SetInitializer(new CreateCeDatabaseIfNotExists());
    }
}
