QueryableExGenerateTState, TResult Method (IQueryProvider, TState, ExpressionFuncTState, Boolean, ExpressionFuncTState, TState, ExpressionFuncTState, TResult)
Generates a sequence by mimicking a for loop.

Namespace: System.Linq
Assembly: System.Interactive.Providers (in System.Interactive.Providers.dll) Version: 1.2.0.0
Syntax
C#
Copy
public static IQueryable<TResult> Generate<TState, TResult>(
	this IQueryProvider provider,
	TState initialState,
	Expression<Func<TState, bool>> condition,
	Expression<Func<TState, TState>> iterate,
	Expression<Func<TState, TResult>> resultSelector
)

Parameters

provider
Type: System.LinqIQueryProvider
Query provider.
initialState
Type: TState
Initial state of the generator loop.
condition
Type: System.Linq.ExpressionsExpressionFuncTState, Boolean
Loop condition.
iterate
Type: System.Linq.ExpressionsExpressionFuncTState, TState
State update function to run after every iteration of the generator loop.
resultSelector
Type: System.Linq.ExpressionsExpressionFuncTState, TResult
Result selector to compute resulting sequence elements.

Type Parameters

TState
State type.
TResult
Result sequence element type.

Return Value

Type: IQueryableTResult
Sequence obtained by running the generator loop, yielding computed elements.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IQueryProvider. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
