Qwiq.Linq does not support Convert

[pelavall]

Qwiq.Linq does not support Convert this prevents being able to use queries which have a DateTime value in the IWorkItem.Fields.

Example:

var now = DateTime.UtcNow();
_workItems.Where(wi => (DateTime)wi["Changed Date"] < now).ToList()

This code will fail due to not supporting the conversion of object to DateTime. There does not seem to be work arounds for this in all cases. In some cases .ToString can be used, but in this particular case, strings do not support >. Other case mapping can be used to ensure a correctly typed property exists when querying.

As a workaround, use the as operator for now:

var now = DateTime.UtcNow();
_workItems.Where(wi => (wi["Changed Date"] as DateTime?) < now).ToList()
