Can I populate a list of my own class directly in LINQ?

c#, linq

Solution

You need to add your class name after the `new` keyword:

IList<FotoLiveLove> fotoLiveLove = xDoc["statuses"].Select(x => new FotoLiveLove()
{
    Tipologia = "twitter",
    URL = (string)x["URLJSON"]
}).ToList();

Problem

This is the example: ``` public class FotoLiveLove { public string Tipologia { get; set; } public string URL { get; set; } } IList<FotoLiveLove> fotoLiveLove = xDoc["statuses"].Select(x => new { Tipologia = "twitter", URL = (string)x["URLJSON"] }).ToList(); ``` but it says acnnot convert Anonymous type #1 to FotoLiveLove.
