Queryable::Last<TSource> Method (IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource, Boolean>>)
Returns the last element of a sequence that satisfies a specified condition.
Assembly: System.Core (in System.Core.dll)
[ExtensionAttribute] public: generic<typename TSource> static TSource Last( IQueryable<TSource>^ source, Expression<Func<TSource, bool>^>^ predicate )
Type Parameters
- TSource
The type of the elements of source.
Parameters
- source
- Type: System.Linq::IQueryable<TSource>
An IQueryable<T> to return an element from.
- predicate
- Type: System.Linq.Expressions::Expression<Func<TSource, Boolean>>
A function to test each element for a condition.
Return Value
Type: TSourceThe last element in source that passes the test specified by predicate.
Usage Note
In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IQueryable<TSource>. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | source or predicate is nullptr. |
| InvalidOperationException | No element satisfies the condition in predicate. -or- The source sequence is empty. |
This method has at least one parameter of type Expression<TDelegate> whose type argument is one of the Func<T, TResult> types. For these parameters, you can pass in a lambda expression and it will be compiled to an Expression<TDelegate>.
The Last<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource, Boolean>>) method generates a MethodCallExpression that represents calling Last<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource, Boolean>>) itself as a constructed generic method. It then passes the MethodCallExpression to the Execute<TResult>(Expression) method of the IQueryProvider represented by the Provider property of the source parameter.
The query behavior that occurs as a result of executing an expression tree that represents calling Last<TSource>(IQueryable<TSource>, Expression<Func<TSource, Boolean>>) depends on the implementation of the type of the source parameter. The expected behavior is that it returns the last element in source that satisfies the condition specified by predicate.
