Question

I’ve got class named PagedList which looks like this:

public class PagedList<T> : List<T>
{

    public int PageIndex { get; private set; }
    public int PageSize { get; private set; }
    public int TotalCount { get; private set; }
    public int TotalPages { get; private set; }

    public bool HasPrevious
    {
        get
        {
            return (this.PageIndex > 0);
        }
    }

    public bool HasNext
    {
        get
        {
            return (this.PageIndex + 1 < this.TotalPages);
        }
    }

    public PagedList(IEnumerable<T> source, int pageIndex, int pageSize)
    {
        this.PageIndex = pageIndex;
        this.PageSize = pageSize;
        this.TotalCount = source.Count();
        this.TotalPages = (int)Math.Ceiling(TotalCount / (double)PageSize);

        this.AddRange(source.Skip(this.PageIndex * this.PageSize).Take(this.PageSize));
    }
}

In my Customers controller I use it like so:

public ActionResult Index(int? page)
{
    IRepository<UserInfo> profile = ObjectFactory.GetInstance<IRepository<UserInfo>>();

        const int pageSize = 25;

        IQueryable<UserInfo> profiles = profile.GetAll().OrderBy(x => x.LastName).AsQueryable<UserInfo>();

        var pagedCustomers = new PagedList<UserInfo>(profiles, page ?? 0, pageSize);

    return View(pagedCustomers);
}

And finally in my Index.cshtml file I set up my Model like so:

@model System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<PagedList<Clusteris.Data.UserInfo>>

And When I go Model. it’s a huge list, nothing to do with the PagedList I created in the Customers controller.

Anyone got any ideas on what I’m doing wrong?

PagedList is enumerable. To access individual UserInfo object use @foreach(var userInfo in Model)

Someone else mentioned about the use of IQueryable. It’s a good practice to use ToArray() or ToList() at boundaries. Your repository is a boundary, so I would consider moving the paging logic to it and make it return either the PagedList object or the data necessary to construct one.
