In EF you can get the connection object of the Context. How do you do that with WinClient?

Hi,

In a n-tier application, you could get it on the server side only.
 
What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

DevForce delegates all database access to EF, but exposes neither the underylying EntityConnection or ObjectContext.  You can still create your own ObjectContext using the connection information from an EdmKey; you may have seen this approach in the sample NumericIdGenerator.  If you can provide more information on your requirements we'll see how to accomplish what you need within DevForce.
