EF4 Cast DynamicProxies to underlying object

Question

I\'m using Entity Framework 4 with POCO template.

I have a List where MyObject are dynamic proxies. I want to use the XmlSerializer to serialize this list, but I don

Answer 1

I faced with the same issue in EF 5. I was trying to serialize my entity objects to XML. @Koreyam s answer gave me a hint. I developed it little bit more. Somewhere in my code i was calling the serializer like this

string objXML = EntitySerializer.Serialize(entity);

Serialize method is generic. So method header is like this :

public static string Serialize(T tObj) where T : class, new()

So in my method body i use value injecter :

T obj = new T().InjectFrom(tObj) as T;

it just solved my issue for all of my entitites.
