Video: Entity Framework 5 Enums and Moving Solution from EF 4.3

I moved a small EF 4.3 solution to EF5 (and to .NET 4.5) so I can add the new enum support to it. Then I started the process all over again and captured it as a screencast.

Pluralsight is hosting it on their blog here: Video: Entity Framework 5 New Features Sneak Peek. It’s 14 minutes long. I learned a whole bunch of tricks along with way which I’ve shared here.
