- Removed the hard coded value of

andMapping
namespaces. Instead they will be used as default namespaces if there's no custom namespace spcified in code template files. - Allows new namespace to be specified via code templates files.
// Customize the file generations according to namespace hierarchy
efHost.Namespace = "DataAccess";
efHost.ModelsNamespace = "DataAccess.Models";
efHost.MappingNamespace = "DataAccess.Mappings";
The directory structure according to above setting would be generated like below:

The VS Db connection dialog appearing everytime you run the reverse engineer tool and it was adding new connection string for each run. With this change the tool will prompt to use existing connectionstring instead. It still allows to open the VS Db connection dialog.
