    Get
    Set

public bool LazyLoadingEnabled { get; set; }

Visual C++

public:
property bool LazyLoadingEnabled {
    bool get ();

Property Value

Type: System..::.Boolean
A Boolean value that is true when lazy loading is enabled; otherwise false.

Remarks

The LazyLoadingEnabled()()() property is used to set the lazy loading behavior of related objects. The default value of LazyLoadingEnabled()()() is false. However, if you use the Entity Framework tools to create a new model and the corresponding generated classes, LazyLoadingEnabled is set to true in the object context's constructor by default. When using this kind of loading, realize that each navigation property that you access causes a separate query to be executed against the data source if the object is not already in the ObjectContext. For more information, see Load Related Objects (Entity Framework).
