I have a SQL Express 2008 DB that has gone live. I’d like to create a new table in that database without deleting all the existing data in the live DB.
I created an entity class for the new table and a separate data-context.
What is the best way for me to add the new table using LINQ to SQL
Thanks…
That’s not Linq To Sql’s role in your architecture. You need to create the tables prior to deploying your new version of your data model.
You can either manually update your db w/ direct SQL commands against it, or you can package it w/ the deployment (e.g. via continuous integration scripts or something like Migrator.NET)
