Entity Framework Code First MaxLength и FixedLegth (char срещу varchar)

С течния API можете да използвате IsFixedLength():

//Set StudentName column size to 50 and change datatype to nchar 
//IsFixedLength() change datatype from nvarchar to nchar
  modelBuilder.Entity<Student>()
                    .Property(p => p.StudentName)
                    .HasMaxLength(50).IsFixedLength();

С пояснения можете да диктувате вида:

[Column(TypeName = "char")]
[StringLength(2)]
public string MyCharField { get; set; }
