This is confusing me a bit... When people talk about ADO.NET Entity Framework are they actually talking about ADO.NET Entity Data Model?
回答1:
No, the Entity Framework includes several components such as the Entity Data Model Wizard, which allows you to create an ADO.NET Entity Data Model (via Database First or Design First workflow, or Code First). The data model is stored in an EDMX file (for Database First or Design First) and can be viewed and edited in the Entity Framework Designer. For Code First, your data model is your c# classes along with a DbContext class.
