Maybe you want
IList<Filter_IDs> filterIds = ef.filterline
.Select(fl => fl.objectType).Distinct()
.Select(ot => new Filter_IDs
{
type = ot,
objects = ef.filterline
.Where(fl => fl.objectType == ot)
.Select(fl =>objectType)
.ToList()
}).ToList();
Get the distinct list objectType
and use that to subquery for each list of object_id
.
However, it seems more efficient to me to just enumerate the values in order,
var results = new List<Filter_IDs>();
var ids = new List<int>();
var first = true;
int thisType;
foreach (var fl in ef.filterLines
.OrderBy(fl => fl.objectType)
.ThenBy(fl => fl.object_Id))
{
if (first)
{
thisType = fl.objectType;
first = false;
}
else
{
if (fl.objectType == thisType)
{
ids.Add(fl.object_Id);
}
else
{
results.Add(new Filter_IDs
{
Type = thisType,
objects = ids
});
thisType = fl.objectType;
ids = new List<int>();
}
}
}
