Hi there,

Just checking: is there a way to create a new (not DefaultView) EntityView2 from IEntitiyCollection2?

I don't see IEntityCollection2.CreateView method. Perhaps because I am (still) using v2.0?

H'mmm. I am using 2.5 adapter.


IEntityCollection2 _yyyyMmInvoiceCollection;
...
IEntityView2 iev = _customerYyyyMmCollection.CreateView(filter);

Reference manual -> ORMSupportClasses -> Interfaces -> IEntityCollection2 -> Methods -> CreateView.. (4 overloads) stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye

Nope. Not a single one. Because of v2.0?

You're still on v2.0? Then yes, it's not in v2.0. You then have to grab the generic argument for the IEntityCollection2 instance, (the T in EntityCollection<T>), and use Type.MakeGenericType() to create a new instance.

OK, no typed way then. About 2.0: yes, still on 2.0 because I modified a bunch of templates and added some low level behaviour. Switching to 2.0 for current project would require some amount of work which isn't necessary at this time because everything is working prety well.
