Had you tried to set TreatTinyAsBoolean=false connection string option explicitly?

See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/connector-net-connection-options.html.

I tried adding this to the connection string and EF continues mapping the column as Boolean.

I added the TreatTinyIntAsBoolen and worked only when i edited the model.edmx by hand. The VS mapping tool continued generating the Boolean columns.

Hi,

I assume you were trying EF database first, generated a model from

CREATE TABLE `tinyinytest2` (
  id int auto_increment primary key,
  `val` tinyint DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB 

And the entity generated in the EDM was correct, in particular `val` was translated to sbyte.
(I am using Connector/NET 6.6.1).

Can you provide details on how to reproduce it please?

Thanks.
