I have an already populated Firebird database and would like to use this same database for a Web project in visual studio 2015.
I would like to use a library class and generate the model using EF Code-First - From an existing base but on a Firebird server .
I already installed Firebird ADO.NET Data Provider and tried to give a "conect to database" in visual studio, selected "Firebird Data Source", dei continue but when I select DB in the "add conecction" window the window closes and I have to restart the process in "conect to database" or VS crashes and reboots.
It didn’t, so I installed the ADO.NET Firebird, as below:
PM> Install-Package FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient
PM> Install-Package EntityFramework.Firebird
But I still can’t connect DB with Visualstudio.
Does anyone know how I fix?
Thank you.

@Randrade is not a duplicate. I asked him to open it. Now what he needs is to use the IDE to reverse engineer the bank.

@I thought it was something like that, but I didn’t find any warning in the previous question.

@Ciganomorrisonmendez, depedendo da versão do VS do AP, he may need to install the
EF Toolsto generate the Code-First model from an existing database.– Tobias Mesquita
@Tobymosque knows if it is normal for Visual Studio to lock and close when I try to import the database?

@Victorglauber, no forced closure after error is normal.

@Tobymosque I’m stuck with this problem since yesterday, I can’t find any solution.
