I'm trying to call ObjectContext.ExecuteFunction from my objectcontext object in the repository of my site.
The repository is generic, so all I have is an ObjectContext object, rather than one that actually represents my specific one from the Entity Framework.
Here's an example of code that was generated that uses the ExecuteFunction method:
[global::System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCode("System.Data.Entity.Design.EntityClassGenerator", "4.0.0.0")]
public global::System.Data.Objects.ObjectResult<ArtistSearchVariation> FindSearchVariation(string source)
{
global::System.Data.Objects.ObjectParameter sourceParameter;
if ((source != null))
{
sourceParameter = new global::System.Data.Objects.ObjectParameter("Source", source);
}
else
{
sourceParameter = new global::System.Data.Objects.ObjectParameter("Source", typeof(string));
}
return base.ExecuteFunction<ArtistSearchVariation>("FindSearchVariation", sourceParameter);
}
But what I would like to do is something like this...
public class Repository<E, C> : IRepository<E, C>, IDisposable
where E : EntityObject
where C : ObjectContext
{
private readonly C _ctx;
// ...
public ObjectResult<E> ExecuteFunction(string functionName, params[])
{
// Create object parameters
return _ctx.ExecuteFunction<E>(functionName, /* parameters */)
}
}
Anyone know why I have to call ExecuteFunction from base instead of _ctx?
Also, is there any way to do something like I've written out? I would really like to keep my repository generic, but with having to execute stored procedures it's looking more and more difficult...
Thanks,
Matt
