DbExpressionBuilder.Select<TProjection> Method

Definition

Creates a new DbProjectExpression that selects the specified expression over the given input set.

public static System.Data.Entity.Core.Common.CommandTrees.DbProjectExpression Select<TProjection> (this System.Data.Entity.Core.Common.CommandTrees.DbExpression source, Func<System.Data.Entity.Core.Common.CommandTrees.DbExpression,TProjection> projection);
static member Select : System.Data.Entity.Core.Common.CommandTrees.DbExpression * Func<System.Data.Entity.Core.Common.CommandTrees.DbExpression, 'Projection> -> System.Data.Entity.Core.Common.CommandTrees.DbProjectExpression
<Extension()>
Public Function Select(Of TProjection) (source As DbExpression, projection As Func(Of DbExpression, TProjection)) As DbProjectExpression

Type Parameters

TProjection

The method result type of projection.

Parameters

source
DbExpression

An expression that specifies the input set.

projection
Func<DbExpression,TProjection>

A method that specifies how to derive the projected expression given a member of the input set. This method must produce an instance of a type that is compatible with Select and can be resolved into a DbExpression . Compatibility requirements for TProjection are described in remarks.

Returns

A new DbProjectExpression that represents the select operation.

Exceptions

The result of projection is null.
