How to dynamically generate LINQ query:
int[] IDArray = {55, 36};
public IQueryable<ContactListView> FindAllContacts(int loggedUserID, int[] IDArray)
{
var result = (
from contact in db.Contacts
//Start of dynamic part...
where
contact.UserID == loggedUserID
foreach (var id in IDArray)
{
where contact.UserID == id
}
// End of dynamic part
orderby contact.ContactID descending
select new ContactListView
{
ContactID = contact.ContactID,
FirstName = contact.FirstName,
LastName = contact.LastName
});
return result;
}
Thanks,
Ile
Can't you just use Contains? I assume you want to generate a query that has an IN clause. There's an example of that here: Creating in queries with linq to sql.
int[] IDArray = {55, 36};
public IQueryable<ContactListView> FindAllContacts(int loggedUserID, int[] IDArray)
{
var result = (
from contact in db.Contacts
where contact.UserID == loggedUserID
&& IDArray.Contains( contact.UserID )
orderby contact.ContactID descending
select new ContactListView
{
ContactID = contact.ContactID,
FirstName = contact.FirstName,
LastName = contact.LastName
});
return result;
}
You probably want where IDArray.Contains(contact.UserID)

I am trying to get a record from database using linq but it keep return no record
it is very basic sql statment
select * where productid ='12553'
however the following code does not return any result. Please advise. thx you
private static IEnumerable<ProductModel> GetAllProduct(string productId)
{
using (var dc = new TestEntities())
{
var result = (from a in dc.Products
where a.productid == productId
select new ProductModel
{
ProductId = a.productid,
Name = a.ProductName
});
return result.Distinct().ToList();
}
}
You don't need projection here:
using (var dc = new TestEntities())
{
var result = from a in dc.Products
where a.productid == productId
select a;
return result.Distinct().ToList();
}
I have 2 objects (lists loaded from XML) report and database (showed bellow in code) and i should analyse them and mark items with 0, 1, 2, 3 according to some conditions
TransactionResultCode = 0; // SUCCESS (all fields are equivalents: [Id, AccountNumber, Date, Amount])
TransactionResultCode = 1; // Exists in report but Not in database
TransactionResultCode = 2; // Exists in database but Not in report
TransactionResultCode = 3; // Field [Id] are equals but other fields [AccountNumber, Date, Amount] are different.
I'll be happy if somebody could found time to suggest how to optimize some queries.
Bellow is the code:
THANK YOU!!!
//TransactionResultCode = 0 - SUCCESS
//JOIN on all fields
var result0 = from d in database
from r in report
where (d.TransactionId == r.MovementID) &&
(d.TransactionAccountNumber == long.Parse(r.AccountNumber)) &&
(d.TransactionDate == r.MovementDate) &&
(d.TransactionAmount == r.Amount)
orderby d.TransactionId
select new TransactionList()
{
TransactionId = d.TransactionId,
TransactionAccountNumber = d.TransactionAccountNumber,
TransactionDate = d.TransactionDate,
TransactionAmount = d.TransactionAmount,
TransactionResultCode = 0
};
//*******************************************
//JOIN on [Id] field
var joinedList = from d in database
from r in report
where d.TransactionId == r.MovementID
select new TransactionList()
{
TransactionId = d.TransactionId,
TransactionAccountNumber = d.TransactionAccountNumber,
TransactionDate = d.TransactionDate,
TransactionAmount = d.TransactionAmount
};
//Difference report - database
var onlyReportID = report.Select(r => r.MovementID).Except(joinedList.Select(d => d.TransactionId));
//TransactionResultCode = 1 - Not Found in database
var result1 = from o in onlyReportID
from r in report
where (o == r.MovementID)
orderby r.MovementID
select new TransactionList()
{
TransactionId = r.MovementID,
TransactionAccountNumber = long.Parse(r.AccountNumber),
TransactionDate = r.MovementDate,
TransactionAmount = r.Amount,
TransactionResultCode = 1
};
//*******************************************
//Difference database - report
var onlyDatabaseID = database.Select(d => d.TransactionId).Except(joinedList.Select(d => d.TransactionId));
//TransactionResultCode = 2 - Not Found in report
var result2 = from o in onlyDatabaseID
from d in database
where (o == d.TransactionId)
orderby d.TransactionId
select new TransactionList()
{
TransactionId = d.TransactionId,
TransactionAccountNumber = d.TransactionAccountNumber,
TransactionDate = d.TransactionDate,
TransactionAmount = d.TransactionAmount,
TransactionResultCode = 2
};
//*******************************************
var qwe = joinedList.Select(j => j.TransactionId).Except(result0.Select(r => r.TransactionId));
//TransactionResultCode = 3 - Transaction Results are different (Amount, AccountNumber, Date, )
var result3 = from j in joinedList
from q in qwe
where j.TransactionId == q
select new TransactionList()
{
TransactionId = j.TransactionId,
TransactionAccountNumber = j.TransactionAccountNumber,
TransactionDate = j.TransactionDate,
TransactionAmount = j.TransactionAmount,
TransactionResultCode = 3
};
you may try something like below:
public void Test()
{
var report = new[] {new Item(1, "foo", "boo"), new Item(2, "foo2", "boo2"), new Item(3, "foo3", "boo3")};
var dataBase = new[] {new Item(1, "foo", "boo"), new Item(2, "foo22", "boo2"), new Item(4, "txt", "rt")};
Func<Item, bool> inBothLists = (i) => report.Contains(i) && dataBase.Contains(i);
Func<IEnumerable<Item>, Item, bool> containsWithID = (e, i) => e.Select(_ => _.ID).Contains(i.ID);
Func<Item, int> getCode = i =>
{
if (inBothLists(i))
{
return 0;
}
if(containsWithID(report, i) && containsWithID(dataBase, i))
{
return 3;
}
if (report.Contains(i))
{
return 2;
}
else return 1;
};
var result = (from item in dataBase.Union(report) select new {Code = getCode(item), Item = item}).Distinct();
}
public class Item
{
// You need also to override Equals() and GetHashCode().. I omitted them to save space
public Item(int id, string text1, string text2)
{
ID = id;
Text1 = text1;
Text2 = text2;
}
public int ID { get; set; }
public string Text1 { get; set; }
public string Text2 { get; set; }
}
Note that you need to either implement Equals() for you items, or implement an IEqualityComparer<> and feed it to Contains() methods.
I am having trouble to return an IEnumerable and IList, I cant do it!
I am using EF 4 with POCOs
Here's the whole method:
//public IList<Genre> GetGenresByGame(int gameId)
public IEnumerable<Genre> GetGenresByGame(int gameId)
{
using(var ctx = new XContext())
{
var results =
from t0 in ctx.GameGenres
join t1 in ctx.GenreCultureDetails on t0.GenreId equals t1.GenreId
where t0.GameId == gameId && t1.CultureId == _cultureId
select new Genre
{
GenreId = t0.GenreId,
GenreName = t1.GenreName
};
return results.ToList();
}
}
I have tried different ways that I have found on the net.. but can't make it work!
Question 2:
I saw a screencast with Julie something, saying that "You should always return an ICollection" when using EF4.
Any thoughts about that ?
BR
EDIT:
When I load the page in Debug-mode i get these errors: The ObjectContext instance has been disposed and can no longer be used for operations that require a connection. OR The entity or complex type 'XModel.Genre' cannot be constructed in a LINQ to Entities query.
Genre must not be a L2EF type. Try this:
public IEnumerable<Genre> GetGenresByGame(int gameId)
{
using(var ctx = new XContext())
{
var resultList =
from t0 in ctx.GameGenres
join t1 in ctx.GenreCultureDetails on t0.GenreId equals t1.GenreId
where t0.GameId == gameId && t1.CultureId == _cultureId
select new { t0.GenreId, t1.GenreName };
var genres = resultList.AsEnumerable().Select(o => new Genre
{
GenreId = o.GenreId,
GenreName = o.GenreName
});
return genres.ToList();
}
}
First an foremost if Genre is in the database you should select it? If you have FKs from Genre->GenreCultureDetails let me know and I can update the below, but from the looks of it you could do it like this:
using(var ctx = new XContext())
{
var results =
from g in ctx.Genre
join gcd in ctx.GenreCultureDetails on g.GenreId equals gcd.GenreId
where g.GameId == gameId && gcd.CultureId == _cultureId
select g;
return result.ToList();
}
Alternatively continue down your path select them into an annoynmous type, and then copy them. You can use select instead of convertall if you please.
IList<Genre> returnMe = Null;
using(var ctx = new XContext())
{
var results =
from t0 in ctx.GameGenres
join t1 in ctx.GenreCultureDetails on t0.GenreId equals t1.GenreId
where t0.GameId == gameId && t1.CultureId == _cultureId
select new
{
GenreId = t0.GenreId,
GenreName = t1.GenreName
};
returnMe = results.ToList().ConvertAll(x=>new Genre(){
GenreId = x.GenreId,
GenreName = x.GenreName
}
);
}
return returnMe;
Very primitive question but I am stuck (I guess being newbie). I have a function which is supposed to send me the list of companies : ALSO, I want the caller to be able to specify a top element for the drop-down list as well.. (say for "None"). I have following piece of code, how I will append the Top Element with the returning SelectList?
public static SelectList GetCompanies( bool onlyApproved, FCCIEntityDataContext entityDataContext, SelectListItem TopElement )
{
var cs = from c in entityDataContext.Corporates
where ( c.Approved == onlyApproved || onlyApproved == false )
select new
{
c.Id,
c.Company
};
return new SelectList( cs.AsEnumerable(), "Id", "Comapny" );
}
Thanks!
This should work for you:
List<Corporate> corporates =
(from c in entityDataContext.Corporates
where (c.Approved == onlyApproved || onlyApproved == false)
select c).ToList();
corporates.Add(new Corporate { Id = -1, Company = "None" });
return new SelectList(corporates.AsEnumerable(), "Id", "Comapny");
This method has always worked for me.
public static SelectList GetCompanies( bool onlyApproved, FCCIEntityDataContext entityDataContext, SelectListItem TopElement )
{
var cs = from c in entityDataContext.Corporates
where ( c.Approved == onlyApproved || onlyApproved == false )
select new SelectListItem {
Value = c.Id,
Text = c.Company
};
var list = cs.ToList();
list.Insert(0, TopElement);
var selectList = new SelectList( list, "Value", "Text" );
selectList.SelectedValue = TopElement.Value;
return selectList;
}
Update forgot the lesson I learned when I did this. You have to output the LINQ as SelectListItem.
cs.ToList().Insert(0, new { TopElement.ID, TopElement.Company });
You could convert it to a list as indicated or you could union the IQueryable result with a constant array of one element (and even sort it):
static void Main(string[] args)
{
var sampleData = new[] {
new { Id = 1, Company = "Acme", Approved = true },
new { Id = 2, Company = "Blah", Approved = true }
};
bool onlyApproved = true;
var cs = from c in sampleData
where (c.Approved == onlyApproved || onlyApproved == false)
select new
{
c.Id,
c.Company
};
cs = cs.Union(new [] {new { Id = -1, Company = "None" }}).OrderBy(c => c.Id);
foreach (var c in cs)
{
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Id = {0}; Company = {1}", c.Id, c.Company));
}
Console.ReadKey();
}
How can I project the row number onto the linq query result set.
Instead of say:
field1, field2, field3
field1, field2, field3
I would like:
1, field1, field2, field3
2, field1, field2, field3
Here is my attempt at this:
public List<ScoreWithRank> GetHighScoresWithRank(string gameId, int count)
{
Guid guid = new Guid(gameId);
using (PPGEntities entities = new PPGEntities())
{
int i = 1;
var query = from s in entities.Scores
where s.Game.Id == guid
orderby s.PlayerScore descending
select new ScoreWithRank()
{
Rank=i++,
PlayerName = s.PlayerName,
PlayerScore = s.PlayerScore
};
return query.ToList<ScoreWithRank>();
}
}
Unfortunately, the "Rank=i++" line throws the following compile-time exception:
"An expression tree may not contain an assignment operator"
Well, the easiest way would be to do it at the client side rather than the database side, and use the overload of Select which provides an index as well:
public List<ScoreWithRank> GetHighScoresWithRank(string gameId, int count)
{
Guid guid = new Guid(gameId);
using (PPGEntities entities = new PPGEntities())
{
var query = from s in entities.Scores
where s.Game.Id == guid
orderby s.PlayerScore descending
select new
{
PlayerName = s.PlayerName,
PlayerScore = s.PlayerScore
};
return query.AsEnumerable() // Client-side from here on
.Select((player, index) => new ScoreWithRank()
{
PlayerName = player.PlayerName,
PlayerScore = player.PlayerScore,
Rank = index + 1;
})
.ToList();
}
}
Ok, that did the trick. Thanks.
Here is my final code...
Server:
public List<Score> GetHighScores(string gameId, int count)
{
Guid guid = new Guid(gameId);
using (PPGEntities entities = new PPGEntities())
{
var query = from s in entities.Scores
where s.Game.Id == guid
orderby s.PlayerScore descending
select s;
return query.ToList<Score>();
}
}
Client:
void hsc_LoadHighScoreCompleted(object sender, GetHighScoreCompletedEventArgs e)
{
ObservableCollection<Score> list = e.Result;
_listBox.ItemsSource = list.Select((player, index) => new ScoreWithRank()
{
PlayerName = player.PlayerName,
PlayerScore = player.PlayerScore,
Rank = index+=1
}).ToList();
}
You could also make just a slight adjustment to your original code to get it working. Word of caution, if you databind or access the object again, the Rank will increment each time. In those cases the top answer is better.
let Rank = i++
and
Rank.ToString()
Full code:
public List<ScoreWithRank> GetHighScoresWithRank(string gameId, int count)
{
Guid guid = new Guid(gameId);
using (PPGEntities entities = new PPGEntities())
{
int i = 1;
var query = from s in entities.Scores
let Rank = i++
where s.Game.Id == guid
orderby s.PlayerScore descending
select new ScoreWithRank()
{
Rank.ToString(),
PlayerName = s.PlayerName,
PlayerScore = s.PlayerScore
};
return query.ToList<ScoreWithRank>();
}
}
This solution worked for me.
