C# Entity-Framework: How can I combine a .Find and .Include on a Model Object?

Question

I\'m doing the mvcmusicstore practice tutorial. I noticed something when creating the scaffold for the album manager (add delete edit).

I want to write code elegantl

Answer 1

Didnt work for me. But I solved it by doing like this.

var item = db.Items
             .Include(i => i.Category)
             .Include(i => i.Brand)
             .Where(x => x.ItemId == id)
             .First();

Dont know if thats a ok solution. But the other one Dennis gave gave me a bool error in .SingleOrDefault(x => x.ItemId = id);
