Question

I am trying to replace EF5 with EF6 A lot of my code is giving type reference errors, Should I replace System.Data.Objects with System.Data.Entity.Core.Objects in my refere

Answer 1

A quote from the updating guide;

The general rule for namespace changes is that any type in System.Data.* is moved to System.Data.Entity.Core.*. In other words, just insert Entity.Core. after System.Data.

In other words, yes, you should update your references to the new namespace.

Answer 2

One more change if you use DbGeography:

System.Data.Objects     =>     System.Data.Entity.Core.Objects
System.Data.EntityState    =>     System.Data.Entity.EntityState
System.Data.Spatial.DbGeography    =>   System.Data.Entity.Spatial.DbGeography 

Answer 3

Yes... You should update your references as follow:

System.Data.Objects -> System.Data.Entity.Core.Objects
System.Data.EntityState -> System.Data.Entity.EntityState
