I am learning MVC3 and EF with DB first approach.

In some videos of MVC3 with code first approach from Scafolding Options they choosed “controller with read write actions and views” and after selecting Model and Data Context classes some code was automatically generated.

In my working I have a separate class library which has EF model in it (please see blue selected area in diagrame) . Please guide me how to access that EF and its generated classes to use with controller with read write actions and views ?

EDIT
I am adding new Controller.
I am not getting the comments you mentioned in your picture.
I am getting some classes in Model Classes drop down but not my EF classes are there in list.
I have not done any refrencing to class library in my MVC project. Please guie me how and what where to do ?

    I believe you’re referring to MVC Scaffolding

    Install-Package MvcScaffolding

    If it shows No Model Classes availble, when you hover it will give you a more verbose description:

    If you get this message, cleaning and rebuilding should fix your problem.

    Is your database project referenced by your main project? In your main project click references, add new reference – then in the projects tab select the name of the project with your edmx:

    After that, clean and build!
