Hello, My question might be a bit off topic, hopefully not. I'm about to develop a WCF service that will eventually be used by all our client applications. I'm at the stage where I should decide what my DataContract(s), that is my entities, are going to be. We've got the database design in place, so I can imagine my entities will be more or less based on the database's tables, with some modifications of course. What I'd like to find out is what is the best way to generate my entities ? Should I write everything by hand ? Should I create a LINQ-to-SQL file and create my entities from there ? In fact, I would really like to have a proper class diagram showing all my entities an associations, and then generate the code from it. Is LINQ-to-SQL appropriate for that ? Or should I use something else ?
If someone has some experience in generating Data Contract(s) classes for WCF, I'd really appreciate some insights. Thanks
