How can i convert a DBQuery<T> to an ObjectQuery<T>?

问题:

I've got a DBQuery<T> which converts to an IQueryable<T> (this bit works fine). But then I'm trying to convert the IQueryable to an ObjectQuery .. which fails :-

public void Foo(this IQueryable<T> source) {     // ... snip ...      ObjectQuery<T> objectQuery = source as ObjectQuery<T>;     if (objectQuery != null)     {         // ... do stuff ...     } } 

This used to work before I changed over to Entity-Framework 4 CTP5 Magic Unicorn blah blah blah. Now, it's not working - ie. objectQuery is null.

Now, DBQuery<T> inherits IQueryable<T> .. so I thought this should work.

If i change the code to ..

var x = (ObjectQuery<T>) source; 

then the following exception is thrown :-

System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.DbQuery1[Tests.Models.Order]' to type 'System.Data.Objects.ObjectQuery1[Tests.Models.Order]'.

Any suggestions?

DbQuery<T> contains Include method so you don't need to convert to ObjectQuery. ObjectQuery is not accessible from DbQuery instance - it is wrapped in internal type InternalQuery and conversion operator is not defined.

Btw. when you add using System.Data.Entity and refrence CTP5 you will be able to call Include on IQueryable<T>!

Using reflection, you can do this:

var dbQuery = ...; var internalQueryField = dbQuery.GetType().GetFields(BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance).FirstOrDefault(f => f.Name.Equals("_internalQuery")); var internalQuery = internalQueryField.GetValue(dbQuery); var objectQueryField = internalQuery.GetType().GetFields(BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance).FirstOrDefault(f => f.Name.Equals("_objectQuery"));  // Here's your ObjectQuery! var objectQuery = objectQueryField.GetValue(internalQuery) as ObjectQuery<T>;

Not sure what you're trying to do with it, but would a dynamic variable help?
