What's FirstOrDefault for DateTime in Linq?
- by Keltex
If I have a query that returns a DateTime, what's the value of FirstOrDefault? Is there a generic way to get the default value of a C# scalar? Example:
var list = (from item in db.Items
where item.ID==1234
select item.StartDate).FirstOrDefault();
Edit: Assume that the column StartDate can't be null.
