Question

In mysql I can do this:

SELECT id, name FROM pages WHERE id IN (5, 10, 20) ORDER BY FIELD(id, 5, 10, 20);

What is the corresponding syntax using LINQ on an IQueryable?

Basically I’m searching with lucene.net and I want to use the returned IDs to grab the real database entries, in the specific order of relevance.

Answer 1

var ids = new List<int>() { 5, 10, 20 };

var linqQueryResult = foo.Where(...).OrderBy(i => ids.IndexOf(i.id));
