Question

I use a EF code first to create my system.

Recently I want to use it to map the view on SQL server , but it has problems

I create the model as the view name V_InProcessRMForm

This view is from the other dept. I have no right to change it and needn’t .All I want is map the data from this view and show on the web page .

public class DmsEntity : DbContext
{
    public DbSet<V_InProcessRMForm> V_InProcessRMForm { get; set; }
}

public class V_InProcessRMForm
{
    [Key]
    public string Docid { get; set; }

    public string FormNm { get; set; }
    public string ChangeDocId { get; set; }
    public string Stats { get; set; }
    public string CancelReason { get; set; }
 }

when the code run here it display : you have no CREATE TABLE right ont it.

DmsEntity entity = new DmsEntity();
var l = from a in entity.V_InProcessRMForm

Has anyone can help me ? thanks a lot .

Answer 1

Finally I change the way , I use the normal EF to resolved this problem.
That generates the edmx file and I can use it accesses the view data now.

Thanks a lot.
