Question

I’ve got the following Log table

int LogID
text Name
datetime CreationTime
text Content
int CreatorID

I try to get all the logs created by a concrete Creator

Creator creator = myDataContext.Creator.Single<Creator>(cr => cr.Name == name);
var query = (from l in myDataContext.Log
            where l.CreatorID == creator.CreatorID
            select l).ToList<Log>();

but in the returned list the Creator is null.

How can I get a list of logs for a given Creator?

You need to set LoadOptions:

DataLoadOptions dataLoadOptions = new DataLoadOptions();
dataLoadOptions.LoadWith<Log>(l => l.Creator);
myDataContext.LoadOptions = dataLoadOptions;
