code
  1. using System;
  2. using System.Collections.Generic;
  3. using System.Linq;
  4. using System.Web;
  5. namespace SP_EntityFramework_MVC.Models
  6. {
  7. public class Emp_Model
  8. {
  9. CompanyDBEntitiesempdb = newCompanyDBEntities();
  10. public List < Emp_Information > GetEmployees()
  11. {
  12. return empdb.FN_SearchEmployee().ToList();
  13. }

Now time to add a controller:

add

controller

controller

And write the following code in your controller:

code
  1. using System;
  2. using System.Collections.Generic;
  3. using System.Linq;
  4. using System.Web;
  5. using System.Web.Mvc;
  6. using SP_EntityFramework_MVC.Models;
  7. namespace SP_EntityFramework_MVC.Controllers
  8. {
  9. public class EmployeeController: Controller
  10. {
  11. Emp_Model mod = newEmp_Model();
  12. public ActionResult Index()
  13. {
  14. List < Emp_Information > result = mod.GetEmployees();
  15. return View(result);
  16. }
  17. }

Now Add View to your controller Index Action Method:

  15. <th>
  16. @Html.DisplayNameFor(model =>model.EMP_ID)
  17. </th>
  18. <th>

  20. </th>
  21. <th>
  22. @Html.DisplayNameFor(model =>model.ProjectName)
  23. </th>
  24. <th>
  25. @Html.DisplayNameFor(model =>model.ManagerName)
  26. </th>
  27. <th>
  28. @Html.DisplayNameFor(model =>model.City)
  29. </th>
  30. </tr>
  31. @foreach (var item in Model)
  32. {
  33. <tr style="background-color:skyblue; color:red; padding:10px;">
  34. <td>
  35. @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem =>item.EMP_ID)
  36. </td>
  37. <td>
  38. @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem =>item.Name)
  39. </td>
  40. <td>
  41. @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem =>item.ProjectName)
  42. </td>
  43. <td>
  44. @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem =>item.ManagerName)
