LINQ To LDAP: Hello DirectoryAttributes!

I had a very pleasant surprise when testing my DirectoryAttributes implementation. The biggest driving force for creating LINQ TO LDAP was simplifying the querying process. With dynamics, you had to create your filters manually which is nice for simple scenarios but can get messy pretty quickly.

Since I've gone back to a static type, I'm pleased to say this query works perfectly:

var query = context.Query(namingContext, objectClass: "Person")
    .Where(da => (Filter.Equal(da, "givenname", "Andrew") && Filter.Equal(da, "sn", "Fuller")) || 
        Filter.Equal(da, "cn", "Andrew Fuller"))
    .Select(da => new 
                     {
                          Guid = da.GetGuid("objectguid"), 
                          EmployeeId = da.GetInt("employeeid")
                     });

var user = query.FirstOrDefault();

//Produces this filter:
(&(objectClass=Person)(|(&(givenname=Andrew)(sn=Fuller))(cn=Andrew Fuller)))
Attributes: objectguid, employeeid

Projections are supported as well. This will look at the parameters for the Get methods so your anonymous object properties can be called anything.

The Filter class still only supports Equal and Approximately so I'll need to fill it out with the other operations. Happy coding!
