Initializing strongly typed objects in LINQ to Entities

Question

I have a plain old CLR object which is essentially a wrapper for two entity framework objects, I\'m doing this so I can pass this wrapper object to a strongly typed view in

IF you add a parameterless constructor to your FooWrapper and then use object initialization instead, like so:

public IEnumerable ListFoosWithBars(int userID)
{
    IEnumerable tempBar = ListBarsByUserID(userID);

    IEnumerable results = (
        from f in _entities.FooSet
        join b in tempBar on f.ID equals b.foos.ID
        select new FooWrapper()
        {
            FooObject = f, 
            BarObject = b
        });

    return results;
}
