How can I use MVC4 Migrations without using Entity Frameworks? I would really like to use data migrations but I am not using Entity Frameworks. I am using dapper-dot-net.
Yes, you can use Migrations without using Entity Framework. All Migrations cares about is the metadata it uses to manage the database and you need to use some EF stuff to handle that, but you then don’t ever need to use EF to actually access the database. This blog post describes the process in detail: http://weblogs.asp.net/fredriknormen/archive/2012/02/15/using-entity-framework-4-3-database-migration-for-any-project.aspx
