Remarks

In a Visual Studio extension, the WizardKind enumeration is used when you want to extend the functionality of the Entity Data Model Wizard or the Update Model Wizard. Specifically, the WizardKind enumeration is read from the ModelGenerationExtensionContext class or the UpdateModelExtensionContext class and indicates which wizard (the Entity Data Model Wizard or the Update Model Wizard) initiated the .edmx file generation or update process.
