This is not a concern. </li></ol> </li><li>Use Factory Pattern or other creational patterns for complex objects.&nbsp; </li></ol> <p>Thanks in advance, looking forward to a good discussion.</p> 2012-02-24T15:45:52-05:004850224http://forums.asp.net/p/1773502/4850224.aspx/1?Re+Patterns+for+Loading+Objects <p>Did you have a look&nbsp; at EF and Lazy loading?</p> 2012-02-25T03:04:03-05:00
