Adding features to the Entity Framework

  • Article

My customer recently had a request for something they would like to see added to the Entity Framework.   The functionality is best described as an event prior to a LINQ query being executed.  This type of functionality would allow them to add security to each of their LINQ queries.  By adding type of event, all queries would be able to take advantage of this security feature and not have to be re-written.  Since this feature isn't available in the Entity Framework today, I directed them to a site which I think is a great idea; The ADO.Net Entity Framework (EF) Feature Suggestions Forum.  This forum allows you to request features you feel are important to the Entity Framework and allow everyone to vote on those feature requests.  You only have a limited number of votes, so this keeps the vote tallies relevant by eliminating ballot box stuffing.

This feature request is quite powerful in my opinion and would make a great addition to the Entity Framework.  If  you are interested, feel free to cast your vote for this functionality.  Need an event before a query is run.
