Question

I’d like to add some properties to a entity to a model, but that property doesn’t make any changes in the database nor in a migration script.

When I add this:

    public test test1 { get; set; }

    public enum test { asasas, asdasdasd };

I get an empty migration

    public override void Up()
    {
    }

    public override void Down()
    {
    }

But when i add:

    public String test1 { get; set; }

    public enum test { asasas, asdasdasd };

I get the expected migration

    public override void Up()
    {
        AddColumn("dbo.SpiderBatches", "test1", c => c.String());
    }

    public override void Down()
    {
        DropColumn("dbo.SpiderBatches", "test1");
    }

Because the second change does make a correct migration I can assume that the class/context are correctly setup and are working. So the error must be in the enum.

Can anyone help me further?

Enums are only supported when you target .NET 4.5, it is not supported for 4.0
