Where is EntityConfiguration in EF4 VS 2010 RTM?


I cannot find EntityConfiguration.

The same question for RC was here but I thought that it would make it to the RTM version. Is it there?


Solution

  • EntityConfiguration<> is EntityTypeConfiguration<>

    UPDATE 7
    EF 4.1 Released

    UPDATE 6
    Microsoft ADO.NET Entity Framework 4.1 Release Candidate (EF 4.1 RC) with go-live license is out.

    EntityConfiguration<> is from CTP5 EntityTypeConfiguration<>

    UPDATE 5

    Our plan is to deliver a Go-Live Release Candidate version of the DbContext API and Code First in mid to late March. This Release Candidate will be titled ADO.NET Entity Framework 4.1. Approximately a month after the RC ships we plan to release the final Release to Web (RTW).

    UPDATE 2
    Entity Framework Feature CTP 4 is out and available to download.


    Finally found something. According to this slideshow (slide 17) there will be a separate Feature Pack to download.
