Examples

This example adds new parameters to the collection. It iterates through the ObjectParameterCollection and displays the name, type, and value of each parameter in the collection.

using (AdventureWorksEntities context =
    new AdventureWorksEntities())
{
    string queryString =
        @"SELECT VALUE contact FROM AdventureWorksEntities.Contacts
        AS contact WHERE contact.LastName = @ln
        AND contact.FirstName = @fn";

    ObjectQuery<Contact> contactQuery =
        new ObjectQuery<Contact>(queryString, context);

    // Add parameters to the collection.
    contactQuery.Parameters.Add(new ObjectParameter("ln", "Adams"));
    contactQuery.Parameters.Add(new ObjectParameter("fn", "Frances"));

    ObjectParameterCollection objectParameterCollection =
        contactQuery.Parameters;

    // Iterate through the ObjectParameterCollection.
    foreach (ObjectParameter result in objectParameterCollection)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("{0} {1} {2}", result.Name,
            result.Value,
            result.ParameterType);
    }
}

Remarks

When instantiated, the parameter name cannot be changed. The parameter value can be set or changed through the Value property. After the query has been compiled, the value cannot be changed. For more information, see Query Builder Methods.
