Hi!

Regards lazy/reference loading we can distinguish two types:
1 - EntitySet lazy/reference loading
2 - EntityRef lazy/reference loading

The first one has been implemented during the summer (or at least a first
approximation), until now it seems work properly, you can see it in
ReadTest_EntitySet.SimpleMemberAccess01 and 02.

The second one was partially implemented during the summer but not
committed, this night I have taken it up again and I have finished the work,
it seems work fine (r882).

The following test work properly on mssql :-). It is a pleasure to navigate
easily through entities:

  public void ReferenceLoading01()
        {
            var db = CreateDB();
            var order = db.Orders.First();
            //EntityRef
            Assert.IsNotNull(order.Employee);
        }

        [Test]
        public void ReferenceLoading02()
        {
            var db = CreateDB();
            var c = db.Customers.First();
            //EntitySet+EntityRef
            Assert.IsNotNull(c.Orders.First().Employee);
        }

        [Test]
        public void ReferenceLoading03()
        {
            var db = CreateDB();
            var employeeTerritory = db.EmployeeTerritories.First();
            //EntityRef+EntityRef+MemberAccess
            Assert.IsNotNull(employeeTerritory.Territory.Region.RegionID);
        }

Other comments:

· When an entity is created by the DataContext  EntitySet and EntityRefs
properties are set or configured (but not retrieved from the database) .
· Maybe there will be problems with entities with multiples PKs. It should
be interesting put some 'orders_details inserts' into our database-scripts
and make more tests.

Suggestions and corrections are welcome.

Regards.
