Entity Framework in .Net 4.8

I have a .NET Framework 4.8 that needs to have a database added on to it, I would like to avoid doing all database calls manually. So, I was considering using Entity Framework to save me some trouble. I have tried a lot but, I can’t seem to figure out how to get it working. ☹ it looks like it throws an exception at the connection to the MySQL database. The project is a translations service for a SOAP Api, so I can’t upgrade it to a newer version of .Net because as far as I have seen/tried .net does not seem support soap Api after 4.8. And considering I’m timed constrained on this project. A complete rewrite is not possible, at this moment. If someone could point me in the right direction it, I would really appreciate it.

i remember generating a soap client with "add service reference" not that much time ago, it seems weird that it's not supported after 4.8

Yeah, those were my thoughts too. I tried many times but no matter how I tried I couldn't get the projects to connect to the Soap service.

Thanks 😄 This looks like it could work nicely. But it would require a rewrite. But it's certainly a bookmark for the complete rewrite of the service.

what are you using to access to SOAP API, because generally WCF is how that is done in .NET
