Enumerable.GroupJoin Method

Definition

Correlates the elements of two sequences based on key equality, and groups the results.

Overloads

GroupJoin<TOuter,TInner,TKey,TResult>(IEnumerable<TOuter>, IEnumerable<TInner>, Func<TOuter,TKey>, Func<TInner,TKey>, Func<TOuter,IEnumerable<TInner>, TResult>)

Correlates the elements of two sequences based on equality of keys and groups the results. The default equality comparer is used to compare keys.

GroupJoin<TOuter,TInner,TKey,TResult>(IEnumerable<TOuter>, IEnumerable<TInner>, Func<TOuter,TKey>, Func<TInner,TKey>, Func<TOuter,IEnumerable<TInner>, TResult>, IEqualityComparer<TKey>)

Correlates the elements of two sequences based on key equality and groups the results. A specified IEqualityComparer<T> is used to compare keys.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use GroupJoin<TOuter,TInner,TKey,TResult>(IEnumerable<TOuter>, IEnumerable<TInner>, Func<TOuter,TKey>, Func<TInner,TKey>, Func<TOuter,IEnumerable<TInner>, TResult>) to perform a grouped join on two sequences.

class Person
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

class Pet
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public Person Owner { get; set; }
}

public static void GroupJoinEx1()
{
    Person magnus = new Person { Name = "Hedlund, Magnus" };
    Person terry = new Person { Name = "Adams, Terry" };
    Person charlotte = new Person { Name = "Weiss, Charlotte" };

    Pet barley = new Pet { Name = "Barley", Owner = terry };
    Pet boots = new Pet { Name = "Boots", Owner = terry };
    Pet whiskers = new Pet { Name = "Whiskers", Owner = charlotte };
    Pet daisy = new Pet { Name = "Daisy", Owner = magnus };

    List<Person> people = new List<Person> { magnus, terry, charlotte };
    List<Pet> pets = new List<Pet> { barley, boots, whiskers, daisy };

    // Create a list where each element is an anonymous
    // type that contains a person's name and
    // a collection of names of the pets they own.
    var query =
        people.GroupJoin(pets,
                         person => person,
                         pet => pet.Owner,
                         (person, petCollection) =>
                             new
                             {
                                 OwnerName = person.Name,
                                 Pets = petCollection.Select(pet => pet.Name)
                             });

    foreach (var obj in query)
    {
        // Output the owner's name.
        Console.WriteLine("{0}:", obj.OwnerName);
        // Output each of the owner's pet's names.
        foreach (string pet in obj.Pets)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("  {0}", pet);
        }
    }

Remarks

This method is implemented by using deferred execution. The immediate return value is an object that stores all the information that is required to perform the action. The query represented by this method is not executed until the object is enumerated either by calling its GetEnumerator method directly or by using foreach in C# or For Each in Visual Basic.

The default equality comparer, Default, is used to hash and compare keys.

GroupJoin produces hierarchical results, which means that elements from outer are paired with collections of matching elements from inner. GroupJoin enables you to base your results on a whole set of matches for each element of outer.

Note

If there are no correlated elements in inner for a given element of outer, the sequence of matches for that element will be empty but will still appear in the results.

The resultSelector function is called only one time for each outer element together with a collection of all the inner elements that match the outer element. This differs from the Join method, in which the result selector function is invoked on pairs that contain one element from outer and one element from inner.

GroupJoin preserves the order of the elements of outer, and for each element of outer, the order of the matching elements from inner.

GroupJoin has no direct equivalent in traditional relational database terms. However, this method does implement a superset of inner joins and left outer joins. Both of these operations can be written in terms of a grouped join. For more information, see Join operations.

In query expression syntax, a join ... into (C#) or Group Join (Visual Basic) clause translates to an invocation of GroupJoin.
