Querying WCF endpoints using Web API
In previous versions of the
Web API, you
could query your REST endpoints
that exposed an IQueryable<T> server-side,
kinda “Linq to WCF” as
@gblock
said. This was immensely useful and an important driver
(among others) for me to move away from
Astoria ADO.NET Data Services. That
functionality is
gone
now (vote to get it back!).
So I was wondering how to bring it back. Would I need to
refactor the monstrous (as in big, not ugly)
OData client source
to reuse just the Uri query translator? This started to look
like a daunting task....
