I am using System.Linq.Dynamic (Install-Package System.Linq.Dynamic
) and I am trying to use the IndexOf overload with the StringComparison. However, it's acting like it is trying to apply the StringComparison operator to the Person object. Am I writing the query correctly?
try
{
IEnumerable<Person> dynamicLinqItems = people.Where("(FirstName.IndexOf(@0, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) >= 0)", "T");
}
catch (Exception exception)
{
Console.WriteLine(exception);
}
Error Message
No property or field 'StringComparison' exists in type 'Person'
Object
public class Person
{
public string FirstName { get; set; }
public string LastName { get; set; }
public DateTime Birthday { get; set; }
public int Age
{
get
{
DateTime now = DateTime.Today;
int age = now.Year - Birthday.Year;
if (now < Birthday.AddYears(age))
{
age--;
}
return age;
}
}
}
It may be an issue with using an enum: How to use Enums with Dynamic Linq?
Try the following:
IEnumerable<Person> dynamicLinqItems = people.Where("(FirstName.IndexOf(@0, @1) >= 0)", "T", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase);
