SqlClient for Entity Framework Functions

The .NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server (SqlClient) for the Entity Framework provides a set of functions to perform mathematical and aggregation calculations, as well as functions to perform System.DateTime and string operations. These functions are in the SQLServer namespace.

For a list of functions that should work with any provider, see Canonical Functions.

For information about how canonical functions map to SQL Server functions, see Conceptual Model Canonical to SQL Server Functions Mapping.
