The generated TemplateEntities
class is marked as partial
.
All you have to do is add another file with another part of the partial class definition that exposes the constructor you want to use:
partial class TemplateEntities
{
public TemplateEntities( string nameOrConnectionString )
: base( nameOrConnectionString )
{
}
}
Then pass your connection string in to this constructor.
You want to put this code in a different file so it doesn’t get over-written when you update your edmx model.
