I am using LINQ TO Entities & need to use Union
operator.
This is my raw sql query.
(select DISTINCT c.DocumentId from [sDocument].[tDocumentStatus] c
inner join [sDocument].[tTOCStructure] d on c.DocumentId = d.FolderID
inner join [sDocument].[tAudit] e on c.DocumentId = e.FolderID
where d.FolderType = 2 and d.isDeleted = 0 and d.ClientID = 9 and e.AuditDescriptionID != 10)
Union
(select DISTINCT c.FolderID from [sDocument].[tTOCStructure] c
inner join [sDocument].[tAudit] e on c.DocumentId = e.FolderID
where c.FolderType = 2 and c.isDeleted = 0 and c.ClientID = 9 )
When I run the above sql, I get around 45 records. That's right as well
Below is LINQ for the same requirement.
IQueryable<DocumentListMapper> query = (
from c in entities.tDocumentStatus
join d in entities.tTOCStructures on c.DocumentId equals d.FolderID
join e in entities.tAudits on c.DocumentId equals e.FolderID
where d.FolderType == 2 && d.isDeleted == false && d.ClientID == clientId && e.AuditDescriptionID != 10
select new DocumentListMapper()
{
DocumentId = c.DocumentId,
DocumentName = d.CheckoutFolderName,
PublishDate = c.AssignedDate
}).Distinct().Union(
from c in entities.tTOCStructures
join e in entities.tAudits on c.FolderID equals e.FolderID
where c.FolderType == 2 && c.isDeleted == false && c.ClientID == clientId
select new DocumentListMapper()
{
DocumentId = c.FolderID,
DocumentName = c.CheckoutFolderName,
PublishDate = e.TaskDateTime
}).Distinct().OrderBy(x => x.PublishDate).Skip(pager * 50).Take(50);
But this LINQ returns more than 2500 records. This is not the desired records.
What's wrong in my LINQ??
