EntityFramework未加载相关数据

Question

I have these entities:

public class Company : PrimaryKey
{
    public string Name {get;set;}

    public virtual Account Account {get;set;}
}

public class Account
{
    [Key]
    public Guid CompanyId { get; set; }

    public virtual Company Company {get;set;}
}

I use these configurations:

modelBuilder.Entity<Company>()
    .HasOptional(c => c.Account)
    .WithRequired(a => a.Company)
    .WillCascadeOnDelete();

Now, I have two projects, one is a test bench project which is a Console Application with a DbContext and a Repository , the second is the full blown production project which is a MVC 4 in which I use Dependancy Injection to create a Repository .InTransientScope() which in turn loads a new context each time it is called.

Both have exactly the same contexts and repositories (the product obviously has Interfaces).

in the test bench when I call this:

_repository.GetById<Company>(id);

All of it properties are filled out, ie eager loading

in the production when I call the same line, nothing is loaded and its not loaded till I created another function which does this:

_dbContext.Companies.Include("Account").FirstOrDefault(x => x.Id.Equals(id));

Of which, when executed does provide all the Account information, but funnily bar any other navigation properties that Account contains!!! Even though I have disable LazyLoading, it still doesn't work.

This is surprising because both projects are fundamentally the same, bar the use of the IoC DI in one of them....

Why is this happening? How can I specify in a predominantly generic Repository to eager load all this information at the Controllers preference....?

Break Points

I set break points in both projects too look at the ADO.NET call to the database and the sql statement that was executed, in the test bench it did go off and call the information, in the production it did not show any joins or anything of that nature what so ever.

Other Things Tried

I tried accessing the navigation property directly when loading it from the database:

var acc = _repository.GetById<Company>(id).Account;

It still says null . So my repository/context is not even loading any related data when asked for it.... what is going on?!

Definitions

_repository.GetById<Company>(id);

is:

public T GetById<T>(Guid id)
{
    return _dbContext.Set<T>().FirstOrDefault(x => x.Id.Equals(id));
}

Answer 1

It's working now, I have no idea why.. I haven't tampered with anything. The only thing that I have, was to put .InTransientScope() onto IDbContextFactory<MyContext>

I actually enabled all Lazy Loading everywhere I could, and it now works.... but it's strange that when I started on the Production project I never even tampered with Lazy Loading at all, but since I extented the Model and added modelBuilder stuff I have had to specifically tell it to Lazy Load.
