Linq Paging - How to incorporate total record count
- by Billy Logan
Hello everyone,
I am trying to figure out the best way of getting the record count will incorporating paging. I need this value to figure out the total page count given a page size and a few other variables.
This is what i have so far which takes in the starting row and the page size using the skip and take statements.
promotionInfo = (from p in matches
orderby p.PROMOTION_NM descending
select p).Skip(startRow).Take(pageSize).ToList();
I know i could run another query, but figured there may be another way of achieving this count without having to run the query twice.
Thanks in advance,
Billy
