I have IQueryable<> object.
I want to Convert it into List<> with selected columns like new { ID = s.ID, Name = s.Name }.
Edited
Marc you are absolutely right!
but I have only access to FindByAll() Method (because of my architecture).
And it gives me whole object in IQueryable<>
And I have strict requirement( for creating json object for select tag) to have only list<> type with two fields.
The List class's constructor can convert an IQueryable for you:
public static List<TResult> ToList<TResult>(this IQueryable source)
{
return new List<TResult>(source);
}
or you can just convert it without the extension method, of course:
var list = new List<T>(queryable);
System.Linq has ToList() on IQueryable<> and IEnumerable<>. It will cause a full pass through the data to put it into a list, though. You loose your deferred invoke when you do this. Not a big deal if it is the consumer of the data.
