How to get a list of results from a list of ID values with LINQ to SQL?
I have a list of ID values:
List<int> MyIDs { get; set; }
I would like to pass this list to the frontend in my repository and return it a list that matches the id values I pass.
List<MyType> myTypes = new List<MyType>();
IMyRepository myRepos = new SqlMyRepository();
myTypes = myRepos.GetMyTypes(this.MyIDs);
Currently GetMyTypes () behaves similarly to this:
public MyType GetMyTypes(int id)
{
return (from myType in db.MyTypes
where myType.Id == id
select new MyType
{
MyValue = myType.MyValue
}).FirstOrDefault();
}
where i iterate through MyID and pass each id and add each result to the list.
How do I change LINQ so that I can go to the full list of MyIDs and get the list of MyTypes? GetMyTypes () will have a signature similar to
public List<MyType> GetMyTypes(List<int> myIds)
