Submit LINQ Query query in Entity Framework as a string

Question

How can I send a linq request as a string in the Entity Framework, for example:

from s in students select s

I want to compile this in oracle server and sql

Answer 1

Maybe you should take a look at Entity SQL .
Here is an example: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb738684.aspx

Another option is Dynamic LINQ .

Answer 2

I use Dynamic Linq to dynamically build linq queries at runtime
