Possible to use Entity Framework with synonym?
919646Feb 23 2012 — edited Sep 27 2012The DB folks have a policy of exposing data only through synonyms, but the Entity Data Model Wizard in Visual Studio only lets me choose from tables and views. Is there any way I can build an EF model against a synonym?
I explored using Code First, which lets me skirt the above issue, but Code First is not supported by ODP.NET.
If I can't get this to work, my only other option is to go back to hand-cranked ADO.NET. Oh, the humanity...
