Is something like Prefetch available for Query.All(Type)?.. or it is available only for generics?

One Answer:

Hello Janosh,

Prefetch extension methods are generic only, all of them use Expressions that are also generic. Consider calling generic Prefetch methods through Reflection, this might be simpler than runtime Expression building.

I have wcf client and service and would like to pass the prefetch condition from client to the service to avoid new method creation each time when i need different set of data. Is it possible? Using reflection i can prefetch only one complex property. And i'm not sure that using reflection i can do something like Query.All<t>().Prefetch(x=>x.ComplexProp1).Prefetch(x=>x.ComplexProp2.ComplexProp3)

While speaking about the Reflection I meant the obtaining of a generic method of prefetch and then using it as usual.

Janosh, could you send me your sample project so I could play with it a bit? This might save hours of discussions here.
