Expose a repository as an IQueryable

Question

I\'d like to expose a Repository as an \'IQueryable\' type.

The repository uses Linq to NHibernate to communicate with the database.

Can anyone point me at an ex

Answer 1

I think a Repository can give you 1 or more IQueryables/IEnumerables, but not : a Repository is an IQueryable.

It could look like:

 public interface IPersonRepository
 {
    IEnumerable GetAllPersons();
    void AddPerson(Person person);

    // more...
 }

You could return IQeryable from GetAllPerson() but that may not be an improvement. IEnumerable is simpler, less coupling.
