Global setting for AsNoTracking()?

Question

Originally I believed that

context.Configuration.AutoDetectChangesEnabled = false;

would disable change tracking. But no. Cur

Answer 1

In my case since I needed the whole context to be readonly rather than Read/Write.

So I did a change to the tt file, and changed all the DbContext properties to return DbQuery instead of DbSet, removed the sets from all properties, and for the gets, I returned the Model.AsNoTracking()

For example:

public virtual DbQuery Campaigns { get{ return Set().AsNoTracking();} }

The way I did this in the tt template is:

public string DbQuery(EntitySet entitySet)
    {
        return string.Format(
            CultureInfo.InvariantCulture,
            "{0} virtual DbQuery<{1}> {2} {{ get{{ return Set<{1}>().AsNoTracking();}} }}",
            Accessibility.ForReadOnlyProperty(entitySet),
            _typeMapper.GetTypeName(entitySet.ElementType),
            _code.Escape(entitySet));
    }
