How to append sql table hints to expressions in ormlite?

There wasn’t an official API for this but I’ve just added support for q.SqlFilter or q.WithSqlFilter() in this commit which will let you customize the Sql with:

var q = db.From<Person>()
    .Where(x => x.Age == 27)
    .WithSqlFilter(sql => sql + "\noption (recompile)");

var rockstars = db.Select(q);

This change is available from v4.5.5 that’s now available on MyGet.

Before this release you could modify the q.HavingExpression to achieve a similar result which will append the custom SQL expression to the end of the SQL Statement (i.e. in-place for where the HAVING sql expression would be), e.g:

var q = db.From<Person>()
    .Where(x => x.Age == 27);

q.HavingExpression = "option (recompile)";

var rockstars = db.Select(q);
