Extending the LINQ to SharePoint context to allow additional fields and properties in your queries
Read OriginalThis article explains how to extend auto-generated LINQ to SharePoint contexts to include additional fields and properties that are not rendered by default, such as 'Created By' and 'Attachments'. It covers using SPMetal or CKS:Dev tools to generate a context, then implementing the ICustomMapping interface to create partial classes that map these missing fields. The approach allows post-deployment flexibility for querying new list fields, with a focus on practical customization for SharePoint developers.
