Question

After reading this post i realized that i cannot pass an anonymous type as a parameter to a function. So what other options do i have?

Perhaps, passing a Query.ToList as parameter would help, or am i re-inventing the wheel?

Update: I have the following query, which i would like to pass to a function:

Sub Test
    Dim Query = (From c In DB Select New With { .ElementName = c.Name })
    DoSomething(Query)
End sub

Private Function DoSomething(ByVal Q as object) as string
    Dim Query = From c In Q Select c
End Function

And the error i get is

Expression of type ‘Object’ is not queryable

The post is telling lies. Of course you can pass anonymous types to a method.

Function DoSomething(Of T)(items As IEnumerable(Of T))
    …
End Function

Dim Query = (From c In DB Select New With {.ElementName = c.Name})
DoSomething(Query)

In either case, your definition of DoSomething was the problem since of course Object isn’t a queryable object. ToList doesn’t help at all, since the result is still a collection of anonymous types.
