LINQ Sample
The LINQ sample highlights the key features of Language-Integrated Query (LINQ) queries based on standard query operators. This sample accomplishes the following tasks:
Lists the contents of the file system in a tree view, and lets the user search through the items in the tree view by using LINQ queries and custom extension methods.
Groups the contents of a directory by file extension by using the LINQ GroupBy operator.
