Re: [Firebird-net-provider] Help generating an EDMX on EF6

[Brian L. <li...@fr...>]

So the EF_6 symbol should not be set for FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient?

The EF_6 is there for EntityFramework.Firebird, as there’s some shared code.

Hey Jiri,

 

Thanks for your response.

 

I downloaded the source code (NETProvider-4.6.2.0-src.7z) from the Firebirdsql.org site.

Built it, copied the libraries to my projects packages directory. Same thing happened.

 

So I started crawling around the code to see what I can find.

First thing I noticed, the conditional compilation symbols in the properties of the FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient

project’s Build tab is missing the EF_6 symbol.

 

I’ve added that to my copy and attempted to rebuild it. Got some build errors that I’m trying to resolve concerning

using FirebirdSql.Data.Entity;

in FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient/FbProviderManifest.

 

While I am working on that, I wanted to check to make sure that the EF_6 compilation symbol was set in the

build you made for the NuGet package. It could explain why I am getting the error I receive when

trying to generate an edmx.

 

Don’t know how close the source code that I downloaded is to what you used to generate

the NuGet package. But it was something that jumped out at me.
