There must be a way to compare two sets of results while staying in LINQ. Here's my existing code that uses a HashSet to do the comparison after two separate queries:
public static void AssertDealershipsShareTransactionGatewayCredentialIds(long DealershipLocationId1,
long DealershipLocationId2)
{
using (var sqlDatabase = new SqlDatabaseConnection())
{
var DealershipCredentials1 =
sqlDatabase.Tables.DealershipLocationTransactionGateway
.Where(x => x.DealershipLocationId == DealershipLocationId1)
.Select(x => x.TransactionGatewayCredentialId);
var DealershipCredentials2 =
sqlDatabase.Tables.DealershipLocationTransactionGateway
.Where(x => x.DealershipLocationId == DealershipLocationId2)
.Select(x => x.TransactionGatewayCredentialId);
var doSetsOfCredentialsMatch = new HashSet<int>(DealershipCredentials1).SetEquals(DealershipCredentials2);
Assert.IsTrue(doSetsOfCredentialsMatch,
"The sets of TransactionGatewayCredentialIds belonging to each Dealership did not match");
}
}
Ideas? Thanks.
Easy answer (This will make 1, possibly 2 database calls, both of which only return a boolean):
if (list1.Except(list2).Any() || list2.Except(list1).Any())
{
... They did not match ...
}
Better answer (This will make 1 database call returning a boolean):
var DealershipCredentials1 =
sqlDatabase.Tables.DealershipLocationTransactionGateway
.Where(x => x.DealershipLocationId == DealershipLocationId1)
.Select(x => x.TransactionGatewayCredentialId);
var DealershipCredentials2 =
sqlDatabase.Tables.DealershipLocationTransactionGateway
.Where(x => x.DealershipLocationId == DealershipLocationId2)
.Select(x => x.TransactionGatewayCredentialId);
if (DealershipCredentials1.GroupJoin(DealershipCredential2,a=>a,b=>b,(a,b)=>!b.Any())
.Union(
DealershipCredentials2.GroupJoin(DealershipCredential1,a=>a,b=>b,(a,b)=>!b.Any())
).Any(a=>a))
{
... They did not match ...
}
The second method works by unioning a left outer join that returns a boolean indicating if any unmatching records were found with a right outer join that does the same. I haven't tested it, but in theory, it should return a simple boolean from the database.
Another approach, which is essentially the same as the first, but wrapped in a single LINQ, so it will always only make 1 database call:
if (list1.Except(list2).Union(list2.Except(list1)).Any())
{
}
And another approach:
var common=list1.Intersect(list2);
if (list1.Except(common).Union(list2.Except(common)).Any()) {}
