If I rename an Entity Set in the OpenAccess Model Explorer Window I expect the name of the Entity Set to change in the generated EntityDiagram.cs file. But I don't see the changed name in the EntityDiagram.cs file. When I change the name manually in the EntityDiagram.cs file it is overwritten with the old generated name if I make changes to the model.
How can I make the change permanent?
Kind Regards.

I see it is (partially) fixed in the latest internal build (13-10-2010)
Thanks!

I thought the problem was fixed but it moved to another place.
in the generated EntityDiagram.cs file the problem is fixed. I see the renamed Entity Sets as IQueryables with the new names.
But I have still a problem when I create an OpenAccessDomainService.
In my Silverlight application in the WebContext the EntitySets have stil the old (generated) names.
Kind Regards.
As you have noticed the EntityDiagrams.cs file is regenerated whenever you introduce a change in your model and save it. This file is auto generated by a text template and there is no point in trying to change it if you will modify your domain model. However, changing the Entity Set name in the OpenAccess model explorer should update the contents of the generated file. This issue is fixed as you have noticed.
Regarding the OpenAccessDomainService, we have verified the error concerning the synchronization between the names generated in the context class and the domain service one. This issue will be fixed for the upcoming Q3 release. What you can now do to resolve the problem is change the entity set name in the text template. Locate the line that assigns a string of entity set names and edit these names.
string queriableClassNamesInput = "Products;Regions;Shippersss;Suppliers;Territories;";
