Linq To Sql return from function as IQueryable

Question

Ok, I have managed to get the following working

public IQueryable getTicketInformation(int ticketID)
{
    var ticketDetails = from tickets in _context.ticke         


        

Answer 1

This line is syntactically incorrect:

return ticketDetails.AsQueryable();

and should read

return ticketDetails.AsQueryable();

Also, you're creating anonymous objects with the select new {, but you want to create myObject instances. A correct implementation would look like this:

public IQueryable getTicketInformation(int ticketID)
{

    return from tickets in _context.tickets
        join file in _context.file_objects on tickets.ticket_id equals file.source_id
        where tickets.ticket_id == ticketID
        select new myObject() { 
            ticket_id = tickets.ticket_id,
            title = tickets.title, 
            care_of_email = tickets.care_of_email, 
            filename = file.filename
        };

}

The new SomeClass() { Property = value, ... syntax creates a SomeClass instance and sets the properties to the given values. Alternatively you could implement a constructor on the myObject class and call it in the linq statement with select new myObject(...).
