Public Function OrderBy (keys As String, ParamArray parameters As ObjectParameter()) As ObjectQuery(Of T)

Parameters

ObjectParameter[]

Zero or more parameters that are used in this method.

A new ObjectQuery<T> instance that is equivalent to the original instance with ORDER BY applied.

The key is an empty string.

Examples

This example creates a new ObjectQuery<T> object that contains the results of the existing query order by ProductID.

using (AdventureWorksEntities context =
    new AdventureWorksEntities())
{
    string queryString = @"SELECT VALUE product
        FROM AdventureWorksEntities.Products AS product";

    ObjectQuery<Product> productQuery1 =
        new ObjectQuery<Product>(queryString,
            context, MergeOption.NoTracking);

    ObjectQuery<Product> productQuery2 =
        productQuery1.OrderBy("it.ProductID");

    // Iterate through the collection of Product items.
    foreach (Product result in productQuery2)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("{0}", result.ProductID);
    }
}

Remarks

The ordering of results in a nested query cannot be guaranteed.

OrderBy should always be the final query builder method in the sequence.
