WCF Data service $select returning 'Not Implemented' exception

问题

I have a project I am working on that has a Order entity that has a navigation property for OrderITems:

public class Order
{
   public int OrderId { get; set; }
   public int CustomerId { get; set; }

   public virtual ICollection<OrderItem> OrderItems { get; set; }
}

public class OrderItem
{
   public int OrderId { get; set; }
   public int ProductId { get; set; }
   public int Quantity { get; set; }

   public virtual Order Order { get; set; }
}

If I query the OrderItems like so:

http://mysvc.com/mysvc/OrderItems?$expand=Order&$filter=ProductId eq 1234

It works well but I ultimately need to bind to the Order only. So, I would like to project like this:

http://mysvc.com/mysvc/OrderItems?$expand=Order&$filter=ProductId eq 1234&$select=Order

However, I receive a 'Not Implemented' exception.

Th project is using an EntityFramework code first 4.1 data provider and all of the wiring "appears" correct. The only thing extra I added was routing to produce the clean restful uris and support for the $format option via a IDispatchMessageInspector.

Ok, Thanks to Vitek's input I was able to get a more complete exception:

回答1:

If this is using EF Code First it needs to define the service as DataService and override the CreateDataSource to use the trick described in this article in section #5: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/5234.aspx

Otherwise WCF DS treats the DbContext as a reflection provider would and runs queries intended for LINQ to Objects. This mostly works, but for more complicated queries it sometimes breaks. If the WCF DS knows it runs agains EF, it creates queries for EF which will work always.
