C# EntityFramework 4.1 set database to update mode

Question

Is it possible to set the database to update? Like in java where we can set hibernate's property hbm2ddl.auto=update.

The reason is because I already have the database setup and have an application using it program using model first strategy. Now I want to try the new EntityFramework 4.1 release and CodeFirst strategy. I don't want to drop-create my database as I already have data in it so the only option is to update, create/update the new tables automatically.

Thanks, czetsuya

对于CodeFirst，实体框架团队目前正在开发Code First Migrations它仍然在Alpha中，但您已经可以尝试迁移数据库了。
