The entity cannot be constructed in a LINQ to Entities query

Question

There is an entity type called Product that is generated by entity framework. I have written this query

public IQueryable GetProdu         


        

Answer 1

Another simple way :)

public IQueryable GetProducts(int categoryID)
{
    var productList = db.Products
        .Where(p => p.CategoryID == categoryID)
        .Select(item => 
            new Product
            {
                Name = item.Name
            })
        .ToList()
        .AsQueryable(); // actually it's not useful after "ToList()" :D

    return productList;
}
