What I did instead was just create overrides so that I can continue to call GetObjectStateEntries.</p> <p>One override takes 0 arguments - that returns all states.</p> <p>Another takes the entity state enum arguments plus a generic type, which like yours, queries for entries whose entity is of the requested type and the requested entity state(s).</p> <p>Another takes NO entity state enum arguments and the generic type. That gives back all entries of the type, regardless of the state.</p> <p>I&#39;ve got them in my book, but I should probably share them on the blog as well. :-)</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://msmvps.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=1685734" width="1" height="1">
