Probablemente habrás visto código muy parecido en muchos blogs o ejemplos. Dicho código funciona correctamente, pero… ¿cual es el problema?
</p>
<p>
Pues bien, en el caso de entidades grandes, como puede ser esta Product (fíjate que hay 3 campos de imágen, y un par de campos de texto que podrían ser muy largos), el problema es que la consulta que está generando Entity Framework es:
</p>
<p>
<em>SELECT [Extent1].[Id] AS [Id], [Extent1].[Name] AS [Name], [Extent1].[ShortDescription] AS [ShortDescription], [Extent1].[LongDescription] AS [LongDescription], [Extent1].[Remmarks] AS [Remmarks], [Extent1].[LegalNotices] AS [LegalNotices], [Extent1].[TermsOfUse] AS [TermsOfUse], [Extent1].[Icon] AS [Icon], [Extent1].[Screenshot] AS [Screenshot], [Extent1].[ScreenshotHD] AS [ScreenshotHD], [Extent1].[Price] AS [Price]FROM [dbo].[Products] AS [Extent1]</em>
</p>
<p>
Es decir, estamos trasladando todos los campos desde la base de datos hacia el servidor web para tan solo usar un par de campos en la vissta (Name e Id).
</p>
<p>
Esto, en el caso de que seleccionemos muchas entidades grandes puede ser un problema. Por supuesto, la solución es muy sencilla, decirle a Entity Framework que tan solo seleccione los campos que deseemos:
</p>
<div style="border-bottom: silver 1px solid; text-align: left; border-left: silver 1px solid; padding-bottom: 4px; line-height: 12pt; background-color: #f4f4f4; margin: 20px 0px 10px; padding-left: 4px; width: 97.5%; padding-right: 4px; font-family: 'Courier New', courier, monospace; direction: ltr; max-height: 200px; font-size: 8pt; overflow: auto; border-top: silver 1px solid; cursor: text; border-right: silver 1px solid; padding-top: 4px" id="codeSnippetWrapper">
<div style="border-bottom-style: none; text-align: left; padding-bottom: 0px; line-height: 12pt; background-color: #f4f4f4; border-left-style: none; padding-left: 0px; width: 100%; padding-right: 0px; font-family: 'Courier New', courier, monospace; direction: ltr; border-top-style: none; color: black; border-right-style: none; font-size: 8pt; overflow: visible; padding-top: 0px" id="codeSnippet">
<pre style="border-bottom-style: none; text-align: left; padding-bottom: 0px; line-height: 12pt; background-color: white; margin: 0em; border-left-style: none; padding-left: 0px; width: 100%; padding-right: 0px; font-family: 'Courier New', courier, monospace; direction: ltr; border-top-style: none; color: black; border-right-style: none; font-size: 8pt; overflow: visible; padding-top: 0px"><span style="color: #606060" id="lnum1"> 1:</span> products = ctx.Products.Select(p =<span style="color: #0000ff">></span> new { p.Id, p.Name}).ToList();</pre>
<p>
<!--CRLF--></div> </div>
<p>
Con esto la query generada contiene tan solo los campos deseados:
</p>
<p>
<em>SELECT [Extent1].[Id] AS [Id], [Extent1].[Name] AS [Name]FROM [dbo].[Products] AS [Extent1]</em>
</p>
<p>
El tema está ahora en como pasamos esta información a la vista. Anteriormente la vista tenia la declaración @model IEnumerable<Product> pero ahora esto ya no nos sirve y ASP.NET MVC se quejará (con razón) de que el tipo del modelo de la vista no es el que le pasamos, y nos dará un error.
</p>
<p>
Quitar la directiva @model de la vista no funciona y recibirás un error parecido al siguiente <em>‘object’ does not contain a definition for ‘Name’</em>. Si quitamos la directiva @model, el modelo de la vista pasa a ser de tipo Object lo que no nos sirve porque ni Name ni Id están definidas en Object.
</p>
<p>
Una solución es generar un ViewModel, es decir una clase que contenga los datos que la vista requiere:

Luego en EF debemos crear una colección de este objeto, en lugar del objeto anónimo:

<p>
<!--CRLF--></div> </div>
<p>
Ahora colocando la directiva @model IEnumerable<ProductListViewModel> en nuestra vista todo funciona correctamente.
</p>
<p>
El problema ahora viene si tenemos muchas vistas que listen distintos campos Product (p. ej. una con Name e Id, otra con Name, Id, Icon y ShortDescription, otra con Name, LongDescription y Remmarks, etc…). Si sigues esta técnica te vas a encontrar con muchos view models distintos, lo cual puede ser tedioso de mantener.
</p>
<p>
ASP.NET MVC tiene el concepto de tipo de modelo dinámico. Para ello en la vista puedes poner @model dynamic.
</p>
<p>
Pero… no es oro todo lo que reluce. Si cambias la directiva a @model dynamic y vuelves al código donde usábamos un objeto anónimo… Obtendrás de nuevo el error <em>‘object’ does not contain a definition for ‘Name’</em>. Es decir, a pesar de que declaras el tipo de modelo como dinámico en la vista, parece que para ASP.NET MVC el modelo sigue siendo un object.
</p>
<p>
La razón es que cuando usas @model dynamic el objeto que pasas debe estar preparado para interaccionar con el DLR y los objetos anónimos no lo están. La solución pasa por usar ExpandoObject que si que lo está. Entonces el código del controlador pasa a:

Ahora usando @model dynamic todo funciona correctamente. Por supuesto parece que el remedio es peor que la enfermedad: ¡El código es bastante más pesado y tienes que realizar esta copia de “propiedades” del objeto anónimo al ExpandoObject!
</p>
<p>
Ahí es donde una característica de ExpandoObject y un método de extensión te pueden ayudar. La característica es que ExpandoObject implementa IDictionary<string,object> y agregar una propiedad a ExpandoObject es equivalente a agregar una entrada en el diccionario. Así podemos tener un par de métodos de extensión sencillos:
