mvc3 How can I read on razor a list created by joining two tables?
asp.net-mvc, asp.net-mvc-3, c#, razor
Solution
The variable datos has an anonymous type. While you can pass that into a view, you cannot specify a strong type for Model in the view.
If you need a strong type, create a helper object containing your properties, e.g.
public class MyHelper
{
public string Dominio { get; set; }
public string Titulo { get; set; }
}
and use
select new MyHelper { Dominio = nombres.domName, Titulo = titulos.titleN };
In the view, you would then specify
@model IEnumerable<MyHelper>
@foreach (var item in Model) // or MyHelper item in Model
Problem
I have this mvc3 project, I am learning actually and here I am joining 2 tables from the same database, but I don't know how I can return it to the View, and on the View I don't know how to read it. ``` public ActionResult Index() { ViewBag.Message = "List of Domain Names already crawlered"; domainNamesEntities de = new domainNamesEntities(); var datos = from nombres in de.tableDomNames join titulos in de.tableTitleNames on nombres.domName equals titulos.domName select new { Dominio = nombres.domName, Titulo = titulos.titleN }; return View(datos.ToList()); } ``` And here is my problem: ``` @model ??????????????? @{ ViewBag.Title = "Index"; } <h2>Index</h2> @foreach (var item in collection???????) { } ``` Any ideas? thanks!
