Maybe you are already aware of it but the Code First generation doesn't work under VS11 beta. The .ibmmx file is never generated.

Is there a workaround to manuall generate it ?

Hi Walid,
Were you able to install DevForce2010 with VS11?
Can you confirm that the msbuild .target files were installed successfully?
Are you able to add the .cf template file to your Code First project?
Regards,
Silvio.

Hi,

I don't think the install is working since I have no access to the different project template.
I have 2 .Targets files located in C:\Program Files (x86)\DevForce 2010.

what should I do to manually install them so I could have the *.ibmmx creation process during the build ?

Walid,
Try this:
 
1) In the Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\v4.5 folder add:
 
<Import Project="..\IdeaBlade\IdeaBlade.DevForce.Common.targets" Condition="Exists('..\IdeaBlade\IdeaBlade.DevForce.Common.targets')" />
 
to the Custom.After.Microsoft.Common.targets file.
 
2) Create an IdeaBlade folder inside Program Files (x86)\MSBuild and copy
 
IdeaBlade.DevForce.Common.targets
 
and
 
IdeaBlade.VisualStudio.Build.Tasks.dll
 
into it. (you'll find these files in our installation folder: Program Files (x86)\DevForce 2010)
 
3) Be sure to add the .cf file to your project containing the Code First Model.
 
Regards,
   Silvio.
