I have been trawling the internet for some months now, looking for some solid (and simple) examples regarding creating a new ASP.NET MVC3 (orMVC2) web site, that could connect to SQL Server 2008, using POCOs and EF4.
I understand the concepts, but seeing as their are many different ways to do the same job i’m struggling to find a full start to finish example I can use as a foundation, for a small web project I want to do in these technologies. I have the luxury of no existing db schema, but do not want to use code-first EF4 approach, I would rather do the model in SQL Server and then import entities into EF4.
I have created a project using ‘the full stack’ videos, but then realized that is specific to code-first, so sort of scratching my head again now.
If anyone has any good URL’s to share, or indeed code/sln files then that would be great. Alternatively, if someone had the spare time to create such a project for a small fee, (50USD), from my specification then I would be interested in that also. I apologies if such requests are not permitted on this forum.
I look forward to hearing your comments.
This music store tutorial uses EF4. Although it’s code-first, it shows how to connect to an existing DB as opposed to a lot of tutorials that create the DB “on the fly”.
