Entity Framework: Re-finding objects recently added to context

Question

I am using the entity framework and I\'m having a problem with \"re-finding\" objects I just created... basically it goes like this:

string theId = \"someId         


        

Answer 1

I was in the same situation. I wrote this extension method that at least for me solves the problem (I don't have issues with i.e conflicts in my context...)

    public static IEnumerable WhereInclAdded(this ObjectSet set, Expression> predicate)  where T : class
    {
        var dbResult = set.Where(predicate);

        var offlineResult = set.Context.ObjectStateManager.GetObjectStateEntries(EntityState.Added).Select(entry => entry.Entity).OfType().Where(predicate.Compile());

        return offlineResult.Union(dbResult);
    }
