title: Handmade POCO with Entity Framework 6?
body: <p>I'm looking into using EF 6 for an upcoming small project I will be doing at a very large organization. Having POCO business objects is essential to me, but all of the options I can find for how to do POCO with EF all seem to rely on auto-generating tools that try to map an entire database structure to POCO objects. We have many databases, hundreds of tables, and hundreds of views, and I'm only looking to use a few of these tables for the time being (and any one project would only hope to use a small subset of them). </p>
  
  <p>Additionally I don't want to necessarily map out the many foreign properties or even some of the normal properties that these tables store. So I'd really like to make these POCO objects by hand and then connect them to EF and let it do the mapping - I'd like to still be able to use an EDMX file and not have to make my own ObjectContext, if possible.</p>
  
  <p>I feel as though this has to be dead simple, but I can't really find any resources on it! If anyone can point me in the right direction that would really be helpful.</p>
