look for task

[czentman]

within an order (IOrderInterface), I want to just see if a specific task exists as completed and just return a bool. Can I do this in a one or two line code instead of looping through the tasks?

Also, I want to check if any of the properties' address1 matches another address - can I do this without looping through the properties?

You can use LINQ expressions to hide the ugliness of some search loops. For example, if you know the checklist item Description, you can use the following to retrieve its status.

Code: Select all

dynamic order = iOrder;
IEnumerable<dynamic> tasks = order.Tasks;
bool taskCompleted = tasks.Any(t => t.Description == "Checklist Item Description" && t.Status == TaskStatusType.Completed);

There is no single line answer to this.
