Btw. this should be comment or reason for close as a duplicate because reposting answers (not yours) is not very welcome on SO. – Ladislav Mrnka Apr 07 '11 at 18:16
I agree, almost at "cast close" ability myself, however the question did not specifically asked for EF4 and MySQL, more general case, so it is a little stretch to be closed for duplicate – Kris Ivanov Apr 08 '11 at 02:32

It sounds like it can~~, but there are not out of the box extensions to allow it to build the templates for code generation~~.
