EF6.Utility.CS.ttinclude not resolved #752

Closed kurt-o-matic closed 2 years ago

kurt-o-matic commented 2 years ago

On my first attempt to use 3.6.0 in a new project using VS 2022/.NET 6/EF Core, I get "Failed to resolve include text for file: ..\EF6.Utility.CS.ttinclude" from Line 8 in EF.Reverse.POCO.v3.ttinclude. Ironically, the first search result for this filename is the VS Marketplace page for Reverse POCO that instructs VS 2012 & 2013 users to install the Entity Framework 6 Tools with a dead link to Microsoft.

Removing this include from Line 8 results in more errors from EF.Reverse.POCO.v3.ttinclude, so presuming that it's a valid dependency, how can a new user with a fresh install of VS 2022 resolve this error?

Hi @kurt-o-matic The EF6.Utility.CS.ttinclude should be included with Visual Studio if you select the components for installation. https://stackoverflow.com/q/14999633/5884

Try this solution: https://stackoverflow.com/a/49616287/5884 and let me know how you get on

Thanks, Simon! That helps.

It's not quite that simple with VS 2022; there are a variety of optional components in the "ASP.NET and web development" workload, and the default options do not include this file. Specifically, I'm guessing the "Entity Framework 6 tools" component is the one we're after (Component ID: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.EntityFramework). Since I am using an offline installer for VS 2022 with a local layout, I need to go back and tweak my layout and response.json configuration file. I'll report back my findings on this once I've solved the problem. It would be useful to know exactly which workload component is required for this Reverse POCO dependency.

kurt-o-matic commented 2 years ago

Confirmed.

The required VS 2022 component is Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.EntityFramework, which can be selected from the list of optional packages under the "ASP.NET and web development" workload, and is listed as "Entity Framework 6 tools".

As a reminder, the VisualStudio Marketplace page for Reverse POCO implies the EF6 tools package is only required for VS 2012 & 2013, and contains a dead link to the MS download API.

Thanks, and 3.6.0 is working great. 👍

Thank you @kurt-o-matic I'll update the documentation.

I'm actually thinking of splitting this product into two: EF6 and EFCore. EFCore would not need the dependancy on EF6.Utility.CS.ttinclude and could also be used with Jetbrains Rider.

That would be great! I'm starting a green field project on .NET 6 and chasing down EF6 dependencies seemed vestigial.

Thanks. If you can find out for me I'd be very greatful, and will update the documentation. That file is only required for EF6, and not EFCore. I've been thinking of dropping it and going purely EFCore.
