i would like to know how i can copy a specific element from a list to another.
I have a list so far with some "posts".
that posts have some fields: _id, _postNumber, _dataOfCreation, _postTitle, _postDescription
.
Also i have create a Method of type bool which is responsimple to check if there is a post in that list based on id.
So the goal is to display to my console the infos of a specific post based on ID.
And my logic says: check if the post exist(if true) copy that post to another list and use a foreach loop to display the whole info(id, postnumber, dateOfCreation, title, description) of that post.
public static void DisplaySpecificPost(List<PostCore> listOfPosts)
{
Console.Clear();
Console.WriteLine("Total Posts: {0}", listOfPosts.Count() + "\n");
foreach (var post in listOfPosts)
{
Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Green;
Console.WriteLine("Post ID : {0}", post.Id + "\n");
Console.ResetColor();
}
Console.Write("Insert the ID:");
var idForSigleDisplay = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
var IdProtection = new IdProtections();
var checkIDexistance = IdProtection.IdExistanceChecker(idForSigleDisplay);
if (checkIDexistance == true)
{
//Logic.
}
}
You first need to find the post.
var specificPost = ListOfPosts.Where(post => post.Id == EnteredId).FirstOrDefault();
Then you can do what you want with it, like copying it to another list.
_anotherList.Add(specificPost);
