Provides access to the modified objects tracked by DataContext.

Assembly: System.Data.Linq (in System.Data.Linq.dll)
Return Value
Type: System.Data.Linq::ChangeSetThe set of objects is returned as three read-only collections.

Note the following considerations:
GetChangeSet might have side effects, such as inference of insert and delete operations that are usually performed at the time of SubmitChanges. For example, objects that are used in the following operations can create corresponding inferred operations in the following list:
Add to InsertOnSubmit.
EntityRef<TEntity> assignment to null (possibly because of Remove to DeleteOnSubmit.
The set may not be ordered according to foreign key constraints.
Database-generated values (for example, primary and foreign key values, timestamps, and so forth) are not available. Such information requires database command execution and perhaps the propagation of retrieved information (for example, foreign key from primary key).
The set of changed objects is computed at the time of the call. Subsequent calls to SubmitChanges can produce a different set if additional changes are made.
Output when no changes have been made appears as follows:
{Added: 0, Removed: 0, Modified: 0}
