I have been looking into using SQL Compact Editition 4.0 in a .NET 4.0 solution and I was doing fine until I decided to rename a bunch of projects and their namespaces. Since then, I lost the ability generate an EDMX model from an SDF file.
Usually, I'd add the EDMX as new item in my project, then "Generate from database" and from there I could create the SDF file using SQL Server Compact 4.0 provider. Of course this would generate an empty model but the provider was nonetheless available.
Now, all I get it:
I've tried uninstalling/installing SQL CE and its SP1, Visual Studio SQL CE 4.0 Tools SP1, no go.
Do I need to reformat my system drive ?
