Entity Framework 5. Multiple Include. Is this possible?

Question

I am trying to create a multiple include method in my repository to use as follows:

repository.Include(x => x.Images, x => x.Tags).First(x          


        

Answer 1

I guess the shortest way is as follows:

public static class LinqExtensions
{
    /// 

    /// Acts similar of .Include() LINQ method, but allows to include several object properties at once.
    /// 
    public static IQueryable IncludeMultiple(this IQueryable query, params Expression>[] paths)
        where T : class
    {
        foreach (var path in paths)
            query = query.Include(path);

        return query;
    }
}
