Constructors

DbContextInfo(Type, Configuration, DbConnectionInfo)

Creates a new instance representing a given DbContext, targeting a specific database. An external config object (e.g. app.config or web.config) can be supplied and will be used during connection string resolution. This includes looking for connection strings and DefaultConnectionFactory entries.
DbContextInfo(Type, Configuration, DbProviderInfo)

Creates a new instance representing a given DbContext type. An external config object (e.g. app.config or web.config) can be supplied and will be used during connection string resolution. This includes looking for connection strings and DefaultConnectionFactory entries. A DbProviderInfo can be supplied in order to override the default determined provider used when constructing the underlying EDM model. This can be useful to prevent EF from connecting to discover a manifest token.
DbContextInfo(Type, Configuration)
