假设我有这样的LINQ查询:

var authors = from x in authorsList
              where x.firstname == "Bob"
              select x;

假设authorsList的类型是List<Author>,我如何从authorsList中删除查询返回的Author元素?

或者,换句话说,我如何从authorsList中删除所有与Bob相同的firstname ?

注意:这是一个简化的例子,以方便提问。


当前回答

为了保持代码流畅(如果代码优化不是关键),你需要对列表做一些进一步的操作:

authorsList = authorsList.Where(x => x.FirstName != "Bob").<do_some_further_Linq>;

or

authorsList = authorsList.Where(x => !setToRemove.Contains(x)).<do_some_further_Linq>;

其他回答

我想知道,RemoveAll和Except之间是否有任何区别,以及使用HashSet的优点,所以我已经做了快速性能检查:)

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

namespace ListRemoveTest
{
    class Program
    {
        private static Random random = new Random( (int)DateTime.Now.Ticks );

        static void Main( string[] args )
        {
            Console.WriteLine( "Be patient, generating data..." );

            List<string> list = new List<string>();
            List<string> toRemove = new List<string>();
            for( int x=0; x < 1000000; x++ )
            {
                string randString = RandomString( random.Next( 100 ) );
                list.Add( randString );
                if( random.Next( 1000 ) == 0 )
                    toRemove.Insert( 0, randString );
            }

            List<string> l1 = new List<string>( list );
            List<string> l2 = new List<string>( list );
            List<string> l3 = new List<string>( list );
            List<string> l4 = new List<string>( list );

            Console.WriteLine( "Be patient, testing..." );

            Stopwatch sw1 = Stopwatch.StartNew();
            l1.RemoveAll( toRemove.Contains );
            sw1.Stop();

            Stopwatch sw2 = Stopwatch.StartNew();
            l2.RemoveAll( new HashSet<string>( toRemove ).Contains );
            sw2.Stop();

            Stopwatch sw3 = Stopwatch.StartNew();
            l3 = l3.Except( toRemove ).ToList();
            sw3.Stop();

            Stopwatch sw4 = Stopwatch.StartNew();
            l4 = l4.Except( new HashSet<string>( toRemove ) ).ToList();
            sw3.Stop();


            Console.WriteLine( "L1.Len = {0}, Time taken: {1}ms", l1.Count, sw1.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds );
            Console.WriteLine( "L2.Len = {0}, Time taken: {1}ms", l1.Count, sw2.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds );
            Console.WriteLine( "L3.Len = {0}, Time taken: {1}ms", l1.Count, sw3.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds );
            Console.WriteLine( "L4.Len = {0}, Time taken: {1}ms", l1.Count, sw3.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds );

            Console.ReadKey();
        }


        private static string RandomString( int size )
        {
            StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
            char ch;
            for( int i = 0; i < size; i++ )
            {
                ch = Convert.ToChar( Convert.ToInt32( Math.Floor( 26 * random.NextDouble() + 65 ) ) );
                builder.Append( ch );
            }

            return builder.ToString();
        }
    }
}

结果如下:

Be patient, generating data...
Be patient, testing...
L1.Len = 985263, Time taken: 13411.8648ms
L2.Len = 985263, Time taken: 76.4042ms
L3.Len = 985263, Time taken: 340.6933ms
L4.Len = 985263, Time taken: 340.6933ms

如我们所见,这种情况下最好的选择是使用RemoveAll(HashSet)

最好使用List<T>。RemoveAll来完成这个任务。

authorsList.RemoveAll((x) => x.firstname == "Bob");

我认为你只需要将作者列表中的项目分配到一个新的列表中就可以了。

//assume oldAuthor is the old list
Author newAuthorList = (select x from oldAuthor where x.firstname!="Bob" select x).ToList();
oldAuthor = newAuthorList;
newAuthorList = null;

简单的解决方案:

static void Main()
{
    List<string> myList = new List<string> { "Jason", "Bob", "Frank", "Bob" };
    myList.RemoveAll(x => x == "Bob");

    foreach (string s in myList)
    {
        //
    }
}

使用标准LINQ操作符无法做到这一点,因为LINQ提供的是查询,而不是更新支持。

但是您可以生成一个新的列表并替换旧的列表。

var authorsList = GetAuthorList();

authorsList = authorsList.Where(a => a.FirstName != "Bob").ToList();

或者您可以在第二次操作中删除authors中的所有项。

var authorsList = GetAuthorList();

var authors = authorsList.Where(a => a.FirstName == "Bob").ToList();

foreach (var author in authors)
{
    authorList.Remove(author);
}
