View 8 RepliesI am struggling with a nullable datetime column [DateInsp] in an ASP.NET app which uses SubSonic3, Linq, MS SQL Server 2005.I had this all working when the datetime column [DateInsp] did not allow nulls. A new requirement forced me to set the [DateInsp] column to allow nulls and now I am struggling getting this piece of functionality to work properly again.
Problem 1:I need to first render a dropdown list of the 7 most recent inspection dates for a given inspector (this is a grouped list of the 7 most recent dates for the inspector). Here is the TSQL that I need to convert to Linq syntax:
declare @InspectorID varchar(5)
set @InspectorID = 'GPA'
select top 7 convert(nvarchar(30), [DateInsp], 101) InspectedDate
[code]....
If I can't get this work properly using Linq, BUT I can/could build a stored proc to return the list of dates and throw that into a dropdown. Fair enough. I've been fighting with the Linq syntax?
Problem 2: I need to use the selected date in the dropdown mentioned above to pull the correct records for this inspector and the correct date. Again, this is a nullable datetime field and this is real sticking point for me.
Here was the original Linq syntax that accomplished the requirement before I had to change the datetime field to allow Nulls:
Dim query = (From i In db.IncomingInspections _
Where i.InspectorID = User.Identity.Name _
Group By Key = New With {i.DateInsp} Into Group _
[code]....
For some reason I can't use the .Value property; I get: The member 'Value' is not supported I get: "Incorrect syntax near '<'." if I try to add the date comparison to the where clause too.
I am trying to convert the following code for the variance calculation
public static double Variance(this IEnumerable<double> source){
double avg = source.Average();
double d = source.Aggregate(0.0,
(total, next) => total += Math.Pow(next - avg, 2));
return d / (source.Count() - 1);
}
Described on CodeProject into corresponded VB.NET lambda expression syntax, but I am stuck in the conversion of Aggregate function. How can I implement that code in VB.NET?

So below is what I have.

I'm trying to match a certain DateTime value with the current system DateTime. I have a timer and a label on a form. Timer interval is set to 1000. When the form loads, the timer starts ticking. As soon as the current DateTime matches the value of the variable, it shows a message in the label. When I'm writing the following code, the values don't match even if the current system DateTime is equal to the variable. Label1 isn't showing 'Times Matched':[code]The default format of 'Now' is the same as I have stored in dtmVar variable. So there's no question of format mismatch. Does that mean 'Now' is not actually a DateTime property? Provided, my O.S. is Windows Vista Ultimate and all date/time settings are set to default.

View 1 RepliesI try to compare Datetime.Now with a Datetime variable I set, using the Datetime.CompareTo() method. I use a timer to compare these every second and display the result, but as the current time approaches the time I set, the result changes from 1 to -1, but never 0, which means these two are never equal. I'm suspecting the Datetime structure contains milliseconds?

We are doing a query against an in-memory collection of LINQ data objects. The wrinkle is that we are ordering by a column in a related table whose records have not necessarily been loaded yet (deferred loading:)

The pattern I'm trying to avoid is checking if a string (normally a control's text value) is null/empty, and if it is, comparing it using Contains to a field in my data. Obviously the field isn't hard-coded into my extension, neither is the object type.What I've got works perfectly in Linq to Objects, but I get the generic run-time error "LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method 'System.String Invoke(GenericQueryHelper.Customer)' method, and this method cannot be translated into a store expression." when using an entity framework model.
Here's what I have:
<System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Extension()>
Public Function CompareAndFilter(Of T)(source As System.Linq.IQueryable(Of T), expressionField As System.Linq.Expressions.Expression(Of System.Func(Of T, String)), compareTo As String)
[code]....
I want my usage to look something like this:
Dim results = repository.Customers.CompareAndFilter(Function(c) c.FirstName, searchText)
I do need to get this running against a SQL database really, as it is filtering results, so I don't want to be doing that in memory.

I just upgraded a project from VB 2008 to VB 2010. Before, the project did not use LINQ. I have started implementing it. So, I have updated the target framework from 2.0 to 3.5, and added a reference to System.Core, and imported the namespace System.LINQ to the entire project and also imported System.Data.LINQ into the form I'm working with (because it was not available in the list for Imported Namespaces in the references tab).
It's not throwing any errors now, but my IntelliSense is not working for LINQ stuff.
For example... I write this:
[CODE]....................
Then, if I type S. on the next line, the IntelliSense doesn't grab what it should for S (Only get Equals, GetHashCode, GetType, ReferenceEquals, and ToString, instead of the options I should get like Count, First, FirstOrDefault, etc...). If I Type S.First. then its the same thing, no IntelliSense that lists the available fields for S, just the standard options (Equals, GetHashCode, GetType, ReferenceEquals, and ToString). I should be seeing my column names in my table when I type S.FirstOrDefault.
So any ideas what is going on? When I type the code, for example, MessageBox.Show(S.FirstOrDefault.FirstName), it works perfectly. But it doesn't change the casing of the text (so it would read s.firstordefault.firstname) and no intellisense while doing it. But no errors. BTW - Everything works perfectly when creating a NEW VS 2010 application, it's just my projects upgraded from Visual Basic 2008 that have this issue.
I know that LINQ queries are deferred and only executed when the query is enumerated, but I'm having trouble figuring out exactly when that happens.Certainly in a For Each loop, the query would be enumerated.What's the rule of thumb to follow? I don't want to accidentally enumerate over my query twice if it's a huge result.
For example, does System.Linq.Enumerable.First enumerate over the whole query? I ask for performance reasons. I want to pass a LINQ result set to an ASP.NET MVC view, and I also want to pass the First element separately. Enumerating over the results twice would be painful.It would be great to turn on some kind of flag that alerts me each time a LINQ query is enumerated. That way I could catch scenarios when I accidentally enumerate twice.
I recently switched from VB to C# and have, for the most part, been able to make the transition without too much trouble. Currently I am working on converting a VB.Net program into C# and am having trouble with a couple of code blocks that include Linq.
This is one of the VB.Net lines of code that I am having trouble with:
I have tried to do the same thing in C# like this:

I'm using VB .NET & SQL Express 2005.I was hoping someone could help me figure this out, I'm trying to search a table between two dates. The table has a datetime column and I am using VS .NET 2005 DateTimePicker control. I'm not getting any errors, but I'm not getting any results either..
