I am using Entity Framework 5 code first and ASP.NET MVC 3.

I am struggling to get a child object's child object to populate. Below are my classes..

Application class;

public class Application
{
     // Partial list of properties

     public virtual ICollection<Child> Children { get; set; }
}

Child class:

public class Child
{
     // Partial list of properties

     public int ChildRelationshipTypeId { get; set; }

     public virtual ChildRelationshipType ChildRelationshipType { get; set; }
}

ChildRelationshipType class:

public class ChildRelationshipType
{
     public int Id { get; set; }

     public string Name { get; set; }
}

Part of GetAll method in the repository to return all the applications:

return DatabaseContext.Applications
     .Include("Children");

The Child class contains a reference to the ChildRelationshipType class. To work with an application's children I would have something like this:

foreach (Child child in application.Children)
{
     string childName = child.ChildRelationshipType.Name;
}

I get an error here that the object context is already closed.

How do I specify that each child object must include the ChildRelationshipType object like what I did above?
