Description:
I get an error when I choose 'Generate database from Model' from an ADO.NET Entity Data Model (EDMX).

DDL Generation Template is set to SSDLToMySQL.tt (VS)

Platform:
Microsoft Visual Studio Ultimate 2012 Version 11.0.50727.1 RTMREL
Microsoft .NET Framework Version 4.5.50709
MySQL Connector/Net   1.0.2

How to repeat:
I get an error when I choose 'Generate database from Model' from an ADO.NET Entity Data Model (EDMX).

Suggested fix:
Open the file C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions\Microsoft\Entity Framework Tools\DBGen\GenerateMySQL.Utility.ttinclude

Replace line 138:

string edmxNamespace = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2008/10/edmx";

with this:

string edmxNamespace = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2009/11/edmx";
