Get underlying entity object from entity framework proxy

Question

I have an entity by getting it from DbEntityEntry.Entity. This returns the Entity Framework proxy for the entity.

How do I access the underlying object

Answer 1

While working with EF 6 i used the following code to get the underlying POCO entity type from proxy type,

var entityType = ObjectContext.GetObjectType(dbEntitymodifiedEntry.Entity.GetType());

ObjectContext.GetObjectType : Return the POCO from proxy object
