System.Linq.Dynamic - Can I use IN clause in WHERE statement

.net, c#, dynamic, linq

Solution

From How to use “contains” or “like” in a dynamic linq query?

//edit: this is probably broken, see below
ids = new int[] {1,2,3,4};
dataContext.Table.Where("id.Contains(@0)", ids);

Aside: It is good practice to use placeholders in dynamic linq expressions. Otherwise you may open yourself to linq injection attacks (Is Injection Possible through Dynamic LINQ?)

EDIT:

actually I think I messed this up. Unfortunately I cannot test this at the moment. But I think the correct syntax in this case should be `dataContext.Table.Where("@0.Contains(id)",ids);`, not the other way around, and that version does not work out-of-the-box.

See here for a way to add this functionality to dynamic link. You need to modify the library for this.

Problem

I have dynamic linq WHERE statement: ``` dataContext.Table.Where("id = 0 Or id = 1 Or id = 2 Or ..."); ``` I want change to: ``` dataContext.Table.Where("id IN (0, 1, 2, ...)"); ``` But it doesn´t work. How can I do this for better performance?
