Is it possible to download an old APK for my app from Google Play?
I have some bells in my database with the same number. I want to get all of them without duplication. I created a compare class to do this work, but the execution of the function causes a big delay from the function without distinct, from 0.6 sec to 3.2 sec!
Am I doing it right or do I have to use another method?
reg.AddRange(
(from a in this.dataContext.reglements
join b in this.dataContext.Clients on a.Id_client equals b.Id
where a.date_v <= datefin && a.date_v >= datedeb
where a.Id_client == b.Id
orderby a.date_v descending
select new Class_reglement
{
nom = b.Nom,
code = b.code,
Numf = a.Numf,
})
.AsEnumerable()
.Distinct(new Compare())
.ToList());
class Compare : IEqualityComparer<Class_reglement>
{
public bool Equals(Class_reglement x, Class_reglement y)
{
if (x.Numf == y.Numf)
{
return true;
}
else { return false; }
}
public int GetHashCode(Class_reglement codeh)
{
return 0;
}
}
Your GetHashCode
implementation always returns the same value. Distinct
relies on a good hash function to work efficiently because it internally builds a hash table.
When implementing interfaces of classes it is important to read the documentation, to know which contract you’re supposed to implement.1
In your code, the solution is to forward GetHashCode
to Class_reglement.Numf.GetHashCode
and implement it appropriately there.
Apart from that, your Equals
method is full of unnecessary code. It could be rewritten as follows (same semantics, ¼ of the code, more readable):
public bool Equals(Class_reglement x, Class_reglement y)
{
return x.Numf == y.Numf;
}
Lastly, the ToList
call is unnecessary and time-consuming: AddRange
accepts any IEnumerable
so conversion to a List
isn’t required. AsEnumerable
is also redundant here since processing the result in AddRange
will cause this anyway.
1 Writing code without knowing what it actually does is called cargo cult programming. It’s a surprisingly widespread practice. It fundamentally doesn’t work.
Try This code:
public class GenericCompare<T> : IEqualityComparer<T> where T : class
{
private Func<T, object> _expr { get; set; }
public GenericCompare(Func<T, object> expr)
{
this._expr = expr;
}
public bool Equals(T x, T y)
{
var first = _expr.Invoke(x);
var sec = _expr.Invoke(y);
if (first != null && first.Equals(sec))
return true;
else
return false;
}
public int GetHashCode(T obj)
{
return obj.GetHashCode();
}
}
Example of its use would be
collection = collection
.Except(ExistedDataEles, new GenericCompare<DataEle>(x=>x.Id))
.ToList();
If you want a generic solution that creates an IEqualityComparer for your class based on a property (which acts as a key) of that class have a look at this:
public class KeyBasedEqualityComparer<T, TKey> : IEqualityComparer<T>
{
private readonly Func<T, TKey> _keyGetter;
public KeyBasedEqualityComparer(Func<T, TKey> keyGetter)
{
if (default(T) == null)
{
_keyGetter = (x) => x == null ? default : keyGetter(x);
}
else
{
_keyGetter = keyGetter;
}
}
public bool Equals(T x, T y)
{
return EqualityComparer<TKey>.Default.Equals(_keyGetter(x), _keyGetter(y));
}
public int GetHashCode(T obj)
{
TKey key = _keyGetter(obj);
return key == null ? 0 : key.GetHashCode();
}
}
public static class KeyBasedEqualityComparer<T>
{
public static KeyBasedEqualityComparer<T, TKey> Create<TKey>(Func<T, TKey> keyGetter)
{
return new KeyBasedEqualityComparer<T, TKey>(keyGetter);
}
}
For better performance with structs there isn't any boxing.
Usage is like this:
IEqualityComparer<Class_reglement> equalityComparer =
KeyBasedEqualityComparer<Class_reglement>.Create(x => x.Numf);
