Does EF CodeFirst create any Temp tables by default?


I'm working on a project that uses EF code first style with Sql Server, and someone was wondering if EF uses or creates any temporary tables automatically.

I figured it might use some other temporary objects if it had to, but I'm not really sure.

Does Entity Framework create or use any temporary tables when setup for a CodeFirst project with default conventions?


Solution

  • No. Grepping the sources there are only irrelevant matches for CREATE TABLE. There's nothing in EF's normal operations that does this.
