Entity Framework - Include multiple level properties

Question

I am trying to get a table from database using entity framework.

The table has reference to other table which again has reference to other tables. I know how to include other tables. And according to this answer and this MSDN page including multiple levels are like this:

entity.TableLevel1.Include(tLvl1=>tLvl1.TableLevel2.Select(tLvl2=>tLvl2.TableLevel3));

But my question is, how to include another table at level 3 ?

This seems not to work:

entity.TableLevel1
          .Include(tLvl1=>tLvl1.TableLevel2
               .Select(tLvl2=>tLvl2.TableLevel3)
               .Select(tLvl2 => tLvl2.AnotherTableLevel3);

Answer 1

Add another Include call:

entity.TableLevel1.Include(tLvl1=>tLvl1.TableLevel2.Select(tLvl2=>tLvl2.TableLevel3))
                  .Include(tLvl1=>tLvl1.TableLevel2.Select(tLvl2=>tLvl2.AnotherTableLevel3));

If you want to load related entities that are at the same level you should call Include extension method for each of them.
