Hi,

I'm testing usage of Entity Framework 6.0 on Code First approach for a c# application.
I have established the database connection and successfully brought in all my tables as classes using the wizard.

Now my problem is, using CodeDOM I created a class at runtime. But how am I suppose to get the DBSet entries in the context class ??

How can I make EF create a table in the database for this class ? Is it possible at all ??

Please suggest a solution. Thanks in advance.

I tried this link and several other sites but no where Iam able to get a solution for my issue.
