Introduction
Today, in this article let's play around with one of the interesting and most useful concepts in EDM Framework.
Question: What is select data with reverse engineering via EDM framework?
In simple terms "It provides flexibility to pull out the data using a reverse engineering mechanism via EDM framework".
Step 1: Create a new web application:
Step 2: Set up a new EDM framework with reverse engineering for the project:
Step 3: The complete code of WebForm1.aspx looks like this:
