Release Notes Published

  • Dropped support for Visual Studio 2017; was getting to be too much to keep the tool viable for that Visual Studio version.
  • Added ability to specify foreign key properties
  • Completely restructured assembly parsers; they now cleanly handle all combinations of EF6/EFCore2/EFCore3 and .NETCore2/.NETCore3/.NETFramework
  • Modified assembly parsers to find declared foreign keys and add them to the model appropriately
  • Renamed toolbox category to "EF Model Diagrams"
  • Added options dialog (Tools/Options/Entity Framework Visual Editor)
  • Added use of GraphViz for model layout (if installed and path is added to "Tools/Options/Entity Framework Visual Editor")
  • Added switch to disable generation of classes and enumerations for those cases where they are coming from different assemblies but need to be in the model to avoid errors.
  • Added visual indicator on classes and enumerations where code generation is disabled
  • Added ability to override the base class of the generated DbContext to be something other than "DbContext"
  • Enhanced display of model elements in the Visual Studio property window's object list
  • Removed MSAGL layouts. No one understood them anyway.
  • Removed tool automatically installing NuGet packages. Too volatile.
