How to create ADO.NET Entity Framework ObjectContext extensions

Question

I'd like to create the context extension methods described in Cesar de la Torre's blog post.

But I'm not sure how to declare the class that holds my extension methods.

If I include a reference to this class (or have the class in my namespace), any ObjectContext references will be able to execute these extensions:

If you look at the tool tip in the photo above, you should be able to see that I can now cleanly access any function that I add to the EntitySet that I create.

How do I declare the class that holds my extension methods?

You just have to declare a static class :

public static class MyExtensions
{
    // extension methods go here
}
