Question

I have the following problem with a simple MVC4 + ko + breeze webapp:
the breeze entities returned by a query are simple javascript objects, without ko observables.
I inspected the todo sample (which correctly returnes ko observables) and I didn’t find the place where breeze is configured to work with ko (and generate observables).
I tried adding the following lines, but nothing changed:

var core = breeze.core;
var entityModel = breeze.entityModel;

core.config.setProperties({
    trackingImplementation:     entityModel.entityTracking_ko,
    remoteAccessImplementation: entityModel.remoteAccess_webApi
});

Thanks in advance for Your kind help

gotcha!
the problem was in a couple of missing attributes in the WebApi controller:

[JsonFormatter, ODataActionFilter]
public class MyController : ApiController
{
    // my methods...
}

After adding [JsonFormatter, ODataActionFilter] the returned entities had the expected ko observables!
