Practical Usage of Generic List as a Data Source in LINQ

Step 2 : Used List<T> collection for Demo:

List<string> list=new List<string>();
list.Add("Arun");
list.Add("Bala");
list.Add("Parthiban");

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

ListDataSource();
}

//Practical usage of Generic List<T> as a data source in Linq
private void ListDataSource()

{

List<string> list = new List<string>();

list.Add("Arun");
list.Add("Bala");
list.Add("Parthiban");

//Retrive the list collection in query.

var queryAllCustomers = from name in list

select name;

//Convert the Collection to List<T>.

List<string> outPut = queryAllCustomers.ToList();

//Display results

foreach (string str in outPut)

{

Response.Write(str);

}

}

}

}
