LINQ to SharePoint and SPMetal : Demonstration Scenario (part 7) - Creating Entities Using SPMetal - Controlling Entity Creation Using a Parameters File

To save any confusion, it would be nice to rename a few of the entities, particularly the derived entities containing the additional columns. While it’s perfectly possible to do this manually in code, the next time SPMetal is used to regenerate the entities, all changes will be lost and any code that refers to the old entity names will fail to compile. Instead, SPMetal allows for the use of a parameters file.
