I use two DataContext objects to return separate AsQueriable () data arrays and then connecting them using linq. The data construct works fine, when I pass this combined data set to the view, I get the error "object" does not contain a definition for "Name".
During the debugging session, I clearly see that both the parent model and each element in the foreach loop have all the data and keys visible / available. I am very confused.
Many of the other q & a's on stackoverflow.com that match this problem do not solve my problem and, as a result, will appreciate a fresh set of eyes and hopefully a solution to this problem.
Many thanks! - code time:
Data construction
public ActionResult SplashImages()
{
var g = (from i in GetGallerySplash() join o in GetFestivals() on i.Festival equals o.ID orderby i.Rating descending select new {i.Photo, i.OwnedBy, i.Rating, o.Name });
Response.ContentType = "text/xml";
return View(g);
}
private IEnumerable<Gallery> GetGallerySplash()
{
GallerysDataContext gdc = new GallerysDataContext();
return (from i in gdc.Galleries orderby i.Rating descending select i).Take(15).AsQueryable();
}
private IEnumerable<Festival> GetFestivals()
{
FestivalsDataContext fdc = new FestivalsDataContext();
return (from i in fdc.Festivals select i).AsQueryable();
}
