Entities' does not contain a constructor that takes 1 arguments

public class Connection
{
    public static string GetConecction()
    {
        return ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DCAssetEntities"].ConnectionString;
    }
}

I have one "connection" class to configure my web with Entity framework model Entities

public class ConnectionDAL
{
    private DCAssetEntities db;

    public ConnectionDAL()
    {
        db = new DCAssetEntities(Connection.GetConecction());
    }
}

then I intialize my database in "ConnectionDAL" class constructor,, It's working good in Visusal Studio 2010 but in visusal Studio 2012 showing Error "DC_Asset_Maintenance.DAL.DCAssetEntities' does not contain a constructor that takes 1 arguments "

Make the constructor yourself in a partial class:

public partial class DCAssetEntities: DbContext
{
    public DCAssetEntities(string connectionstring)
        : base(connectionstring)
    {
    }
}

You need to mark the constructor as public (or internal).

Your class DCAssetEntities needs to have a constructor with the following definition.

public DCAssetEntities(string connectionString){}
