What is the syntax for an inner join in LINQ to SQL?

Viewed 665033

I'm writing a LINQ to SQL statement, and I'm after the standard syntax for a normal inner join with an ON clause in C#.

How do you represent the following in LINQ to SQL:

select DealerContact.*
from Dealer 
inner join DealerContact on Dealer.DealerID = DealerContact.DealerID

It goes something like:

from t1 in db.Table1
join t2 in db.Table2 on t1.field equals t2.field
select new { t1.field2, t2.field3}

It would be nice to have sensible names and fields for your tables for a better example. :)

Update

I think for your query this might be more appropriate:

var dealercontacts = from contact in DealerContact
                     join dealer in Dealer on contact.DealerId equals dealer.ID
                     select contact;

Since you are looking for the contacts, not the dealers.

Use Linq Join operator:

var q =  from d in Dealer
         join dc in DealerConact on d.DealerID equals dc.DealerID
         select dc;
var q=(from pd in dataContext.tblProducts join od in dataContext.tblOrders on pd.ProductID equals od.ProductID orderby od.OrderID select new { od.OrderID,
 pd.ProductID,
 pd.Name,
 pd.UnitPrice,
 od.Quantity,
 od.Price,
 }).ToList(); 
var data=(from t in db.your tableName(t1) 
          join s in db.yourothertablename(t2) on t1.fieldname equals t2.feldname
          (where condtion)).tolist();

from d1 in DealerContrac join d2 in DealerContrac on d1.dealearid equals d2.dealerid select new {dealercontract.*}
