More On Another Way For Using The “using” Keyword
In the past I presented another possible use for the using keyword: as hints on LINQ.
I’ve been giving some thought about this lately and refined my proposal.
var q = from person in personCollection using MyEnumerableExtensions
group person by person.LastName into g using new MyOtherComparer()
orderby g.Key using new MyComparer()
select person;
The above query would be converted to:
var q = MyEnumerableExtensions.OrderBy<string, Person>(
MyEnumerableExtensions.GroupBy<string, Person>(
personCollection,
person => person.LastName,
new MyComparer(),
),
g => g.Key,
mew MyOtherComparer()
);
What do you think of this?
