Open RIA Services User Support Getting started with OpenRIA  Viewed 34924 time(s), 4 post(s)., 6/14/2014 8:07:00 AM - by amigo75

The same tutorials for WCF RIA Services work for Open RIA Services. The main change is that RIA Link is a new right click menu on the project file, the namespaces are different, and all libraries are delivered from NuGet.

The main benefits are EF 6 and Visual Studio 2013 support. There are a many other smaller changes, if you look through the resolved issues on Codeplex and the accepted pull requests you can see the changes that have been made including async support.

thanks collin ,

can you provide simple steps to get this working please .

for example in original ria :

- you create the edmx
- you create the domain service
- you Run !


i have installed the openria template , wich gave me two projects after creating  the solution, but what next ? what i am supposing to do after that ?,
or alternatively how to convert existing ria service to openria service  ?

another question :
can openria be used with telerik ORM instead of EF6 ?, i would love to

In VS2013 you install the Open RIA Services tooling from the Visual Studio Gallery (From inside VS Tools->Extensions and Updates->Online->Search for Open RIA Services)

This adds the same templates that WCF RIA Services had to Visual Studio including the Domain Service Wizard.

There is a blog entry covering the conversion process at http://www.openriaservices.net/blog.aspx?BlogSlug=The-Open-RIA-Services-Blog&BlogPostId=1017
