Le développeurs ont pris l’habitude de manipuler les données à l’aide de Dataset et de DataTable. Depuis l’arrivé de LINQ leurs habitudes ont un peu changé et ils ont du s’habituer à travailler plus souvent avec des IEnumerable(of Anonyme).
La méthode CopyToDatatable permet de copier les résultats d’une requête LINQ dans un DataTable.
Cette méthode est très pratique si l’on veut continuer de travailler avec des DataTables. Le problème c’est que cette méthode n’est disponible que si le résultat de votre requête LINQ est de type DataRow.
Pour pouvoir utiliser CopyToDataTable pour d’autres types, vous devez ajouter le code suivant à votre application.
Code :
Imports System.Reflection
Public Class ObjectShredder(Of T)
Private _fi As FieldInfo()
Private _ordinalMap As Dictionary(Of String, Integer)
Private _pi As PropertyInfo()
Private _type As Type
Public Sub New()
Me._type = GetType(T)
Me._fi = Me._type.GetFields
Me._pi = Me._type.GetProperties
Me._ordinalMap = New Dictionary(Of String, Integer)
End Sub

Dim fi As FieldInfo() = Me._fi
Dim pi As PropertyInfo() = Me._pi

' Si l'instance dérive de T, étendre le schéma de la table
' et récupérer les propirétés et les champs
