IQueryable Interface

Definition

Provides functionality to evaluate queries against a specific data source wherein the type of the data is not specified.

public interface class IQueryable : System::Collections::IEnumerable
public interface IQueryable : System.Collections.IEnumerable
type IQueryable = interface
    interface IEnumerable
Public Interface IQueryable
Implements IEnumerable
Derived
Implements

Remarks

The IQueryable interface is intended for implementation by query providers. It is only supposed to be implemented by providers that also implement IQueryable<T>. If the provider does not also implement IQueryable<T>, the standard query operators cannot be used on the provider's data source.

The IQueryable interface inherits the IEnumerable interface so that if it represents a query, the results of that query can be enumerated. Enumeration causes the expression tree associated with an IQueryable object to be executed. The definition of "executing an expression tree" is specific to a query provider. For example, it may involve translating the expression tree to an appropriate query language for the underlying data source. Queries that do not return enumerable results are executed when the Execute method is called.

For more information about how to create your own LINQ provider, see LINQ: Building an IQueryable Provider.

Properties

ElementType

Gets the type of the element(s) that are returned when the expression tree associated with this instance of IQueryable is executed.

Expression

Gets the expression tree that is associated with the instance of IQueryable.

Provider

Gets the query provider that is associated with this data source.

Methods

GetEnumerator()

Returns an enumerator that iterates through a collection.

(Inherited from IEnumerable)
