Equivalent to DataContext.Log in Entity Framework?

In Link-2-SQL, I can use the DataContext.Log property to view the exact queries that are thrown to SQL Server.

Is there an equivalent to this in the Entity Framework?

Since the Entity Framework supports multiple backends (unlike Linq-to-SQL, which is only SQL Server), you cannot really get the actual SQL query sent to the server server from EF.

To really understand what is going on, I would recommend running SQL Profiler on the SQL Server backend and see what queries will be sent to it.

See the article article about Simple-Talk and maybe this video series , becoming a SQL Profiler wizard if you are not familiar with the SQL Profiler tool.
