Question

I want to reuse an existing project code. I have all the POCO classes(replica of tables) available with me from the old project which is attached to DBCOntext also.

However in my new project my DB structure is different. I am planing to replace the old POCO classes with new ones with same name and structure but they will be view(not tables) in DB.

is it possible in EntityFramwork 6? if yes then how? Is there any other way to deal with the this problem.

Thanks in advance!!!

OK. Weird. You do realize you won't be able to write anything back to the database, correct?

If you had, in your original solution, all of the EF code in a seperate project(s), completely seperate from the application code, you wouldn't have to recreate everything in your new solution. You just reuse the old EF project.
