I'm currently building an application that has two parts, the user front end and the administration backend. The front end is a ASP.NET MVC application and the backend is a silverlight application. I started the project by creating a silverlight business application called Administration and two projects got added, the silverlight app (Administration) and the hosting web-app (Administration.Web). I want to use RIA services with the silverlight application, so I added an Entity data model and built the service.
The problem I'm having is that I'd like to add an ASP.NET MVC project and reference a project that contains the data model. I'd prefer that the data model exist in its own project, instead of one so the admin and frontend can reference a class library, instead of a asp.net web application.
Is it possible to move the .edmx file to another project (class library) and continue to get RIA services to work?
