I’ve created a new entity data model of my database and manually created the POCO objects for this to map to and it all seems to work fine.
The problem is I now want to rename the properties in my POCO objects to differ from the field names in the database e.g I want UserID rather than user_id, when I do this obviously EF then can no longer map an entity to the POCO object. Is there a way I can do this? Maybe by decorating the properties with attributes to say what maps to them?
You can change it in Entity Designer. Enity Data Model (EDM) contains 3 main parts:
POCOs are actually ‘defined’ in your conceptual model. Open Edmx file in Model Designer. Locate User entity there and change the name of the property.
