Interface IExtendableProjection

Namespace

NextORM.Core

Assembly

nextorm.core.dll

An IProjection that can absorb one more item. Only projections below the maximum supported join arity implement it, so callers probe with is rather than assuming every projection can be extended.

The maximum supported join arity is 8 tables (Projection<T1..Item8>); that projection deliberately does not implement this interface. To keep composing past the cap, project the accumulated join into a named type with EntityBuilder<T>.As<TResult>(...) and continue from the resulting derived table.
