c# - RavenDB load related data not working -

the following code throws exception on session.load<employee>(order.employee), have no problem querying employee directly.

    static void loadrelateddata()     {         using (var session = mystore.opensession())         {             var employeefromquery = session.query<employee>().firstordefault();  //works             var order = session.include<order>(o => o.employee).load("orders/819"); //works             var employeerelatedtoorder = session.load<employee>(order.employee); //exception             var dynamicrelatedtoorder = session.load<dynamic>(order.employee); //works         }     }      private static idocumentstore mystore = new documentstore()     {         url = "http://localhost:4444/ravendb",         defaultdatabase = "hello"     }.initialize(); 

the exception -

an unhandled exception of type 'system.invalidcastexception' occurred in raven.client.lightweight.dll  additional information: unable cast object of type 'raven.abstractions.linq.dynamicjsonobject' type 'ravenapp.employee' 

.

i'm basing code on http://ravendb.net/docs/article-page/2.5/csharp/client-api/querying/handling-document-relationships

the employee , order data generated raven create sample data task.

as you've used include, order.employee should populated , not require second load.

static void loadrelateddata() {     using (var session = mystore.opensession())     {         var employeefromquery = session.query<employee>().firstordefault();         var order = session.include<order>(o => o.employee).load("orders/819");           // access them directly, have been resolved         var employeerelatedtoorder = order.employee;          var dynamicrelatedtoorder = (dynamic)order.employee;     } }
