I have two tables in my database:
Town:
userid, buildingid
Building:
buildingid, buildingname
What i want is to populate a GridView like this:
But I don't want the buildings to be shown more than once. Here is my code:
var buildings = dc.Towns
.Where(t => t.userid == userid)
.GroupJoin(dc.Buildings,
t => t.buildingid,
b => b.buildingid,
(Towns, Buildings) => new
{
BuildningName = Buildings.First().buildingname,
Count = Towns.Building.Towns.Count()
});
gvBuildings.DataSource = buildings.ToList();
gvBuildings.DataBind();
New code which works:
var buildings = (from t in dc.Towns
where t.userid == userid
join b in dc.Buildings
on t.buildingid equals b.buildingid
into j1
from j2 in j1.DefaultIfEmpty()
group j2 by j2.buildingname
into grouped
select new
{
buildingname = grouped.Key,
Count = grouped.Count()
});
gvBuildings.DataSource = buildings.ToList();
gvBuildings.DataBind();
var buildings = from t in dc.Towns
join b in dc.Buildings on t.buildingid equals b.buildingid into j1
from j2 in j1.DefaultIfEmpty()
group j2 by b.buildingname into grouped
select new { buildingname = grouped.key, Count = grouped.Count()}
I think this should do it. I have not tested it so it might give error but it will be something like this.
Wouldn't something like this do it?
Users
.Select(User => new {User, User.Building})
.GroupBy(x => x.Building)
.Select(g=> new {Building = g.Key, Count = g.Count()})
According to my experience with Linq to SQL, when the expression is becoming complicated it is better to write a stored procedure and call it with Linq to SQL. In this way you get better maintainability and upgradeability.
Rather than an option to pure SQL, I see “Linqu to SQL” as a tool to get hard typed object representation of SQL data sets. Nothing more.
Hope it helps you.
