Compatibility layer

If you want to use gridify with Entity Framework, you should enable the compatibility layer:

GridifyGlobalConfiguration.EnableEntityFrameworkCompatibilityLayer();

Enabling the compatibility layer provides the following features:

• It tweaks the internal expression builder to make it compatible with Entity Framework.
• EF query optimization
• EF ServiceProviderCaching support
• Creates parameterized queries

DECLARE @__Value_0 nvarchar(4000) = N'vahid';

SELECT [u].[Id], [u].[CreateDate], [u].[FkGuid], [u].[Name]
FROM [Users] AS [u]
WHERE [u].[Name] = @__Value_0
