EF Core Second level ThenInclude missworks
This is a known Intellisense issue with the ThenInclude
overload for collection type navigation properties, tracked by the Completion missing members of lambda parameter in fault tolerance case #8237 Roslyn GitHub issue.
Until it gets fixed, simply type the name of the property and it will compile successfully and work as expected.
.ThenInclude(mu => mu.ParseSubTrees)
Update: Now it's even specifically mentioned in the Including multiple levels section of the EF Core documentation:
Note
Current versions of Visual Studio offer incorrect code completion options and can cause correct expressions to be flagged with syntax errors when using the
ThenInclude
method after a collection navigation property. This is a symptom of an IntelliSense bug tracked at https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/issues/8237. It is safe to ignore these spurious syntax errors as long as the code is correct and can be compiled successfully.
In my case there was a conflict between the namespaces System.Data.Entity and Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore. Just delete the first using line.
