Hi,

Is ListInit Expression supported? I tried the following code:

context.Persons.Select(p => new Dictionary() { { "Name", p.Name } });

but I'm getting an InvalidOperationException: "Unrecognized expression node: ListInit"

If its not implemented yet, when will it be available?

Thanks

Pedro

This functionality is not supported neither in dotConnect, nor in Microsoft LINQ to SQL.
We will investigate the possibility of implementing this support, but no timeframe is available.

We have added support for such scenario. Look forward to the next build.

Great!

That's the next stable release right? after the 5.20 beta trial?

Thanks

Pedro

Not exactly. We plan to release one more build with the old version of Entity Developer and LINQ support, and after that a new build containing bug fixes (and this new functionality).
