Use DI tool unity to create EF ObjectContext object

I tried to register type in container using script below, it works well

 Container.RegisterType<System.Data.Objects.ObjectContext,
              ExSS.Repository.MyEntity>( "myentity", new InjectionConstructor());

however, when i try to use xml config:

<alias alias="ObjectContext" 
        type="System.Data.Objects.ObjectContext,System.Data.Entity" />
<alias alias="MyEntity" type="ExSS.Repository.MyEntity,ExSS.Repository"/>
<register type="ExSS.Repository.MyEntity,ExSS.Repository" mapTo="MyEntity" 
        name="myentity">
    <constructor></constructor>
</register>

It does not work. The error message is:

The type name or alias ObjectContext could not be resolved. Please check your 
configuration file and verify this type name.

could anyone give some suggections? thanks very much

Found the reason, it is related to that assembly System.Data.Entity could not be loaded by CLR correctly. publicktokenkey and culture and version should be added. Config below works:

<alias alias="ObjectContext" type="System.Data.Objects.ObjectContext, System.Data.Entity, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" /> 
<alias alias="MyEntity" type="ExSS.Repository.MyEntity, ExSS.Repository"/> 
<register type="ObjectContext" mapTo="MyEntity" name="myentity"> 
  <constructor /> 
</register>

Your configuration is wrong. It should be:

<alias alias="ObjectContext" type="System.Data.Objects.ObjectContext, System.Data.Entity" />
<alias alias="MyEntity" type="ExSS.Repository.MyEntity, ExSS.Repository"/>
<register type="ObjectContext" mapTo="MyEntity" name="myentity">
    <constructor />
</register>
