Edit Question
Title
Body
I'm doing the mvcmusicstore practice tutorial. I noticed something when creating the scaffold for the album manager (add delete edit). I want to write code elegantly, so i'm looking for the clean way to write this. FYI i'm making the store more generic: Albums = Items Genres = Categories Artist = Brand Here is how the index is retrieved (generated by MVC): var items = db.Items.Include(i => i.Category).Include(i => i.Brand); Here is how the item for delete is retrieved: Item item = db.Items.Find(id); The first one brings back all the items and populates the category and brand models inside the item model. The second one, doesn't populate the category and brand. How can i write the second one to do the find AND populate whats inside (preferably in 1 line)... theoretically - something like: Item item = db.Items.Find(id).Include(i => i.Category).Include(i => i.Brand);
