Specify Database path while creating database using EF Code First

Question

I'm Creating Windows forms app using EF Code First. I want to save database in the local folder of project like app_data folder as we use to save in asp.net web forms. I think this makes deployment easier. How this can be done in Windows forms?

set a string to Environment.SpecialFolder.CommonApplicationData

string mAppDataPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.CommonApplicationData);
