Command Timeout with Entity Framework 4.1 Code First

I found this solution after another Google search. You can access the ObjectContext for a DbContext by casting this to an IObjectContextAdapter.

From http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-ZA/adodotnetentityframework/thread/6fe91a64-0208-4ab8-8667-d061af340994:

public class MyContext : DbContext
{
    public MyContext ()
        : base(ContextHelper.CreateConnection("my connection string"), true)
    {
        ((IObjectContextAdapter)this).ObjectContext.CommandTimeout = 300;
    }
}
