Using enums in Visual Studio 2010 Table Designer

Question

I'm designing a data base using the Table Designer in VS 2010 pro, then generating code with SqlMetal.

I want to use a enum as a type in one of the columns.

How is it possible?

Answer 1

You can use Convert to Enum as described in Enum Support - EF Designer:

• create new model
• add new Entity
• convert it nu Enum

Update

You need to Entity Framework 5.0, .NET 4.5 and Visual Studio 2012

It is not possible under you condition with Visual Studio 2010
