Re: Entity Framework Provider for i

[Mike Wills <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I want to add the table to a .edmx file (Entity Framework in VS2010).
At least that is my understanding to enable this. I want to do this so
I don't have to write the specific queries that I need and fill the
object every time.

Here's a sample of what I do now: https://gist.github.com/f48d2138b5ad6fcb2131

After the object is created, it is simple to move data around and do
some basic sorting and filtering in the object itself without SQL.

Probably should write a full article on this. This works well within
the ASP.NET MVC framework.
