LINQ and pagination [duplicate]

Answer 1

I always use the following code:

public static class PagingExtensions
{
    //used by LINQ to SQL
    public static IQueryable Page(this IQueryable source, int page, int pageSize)
    {
        return source.Skip((page - 1) * pageSize).Take(pageSize);
    }

    //used by LINQ
    public static IEnumerable Page(this IEnumerable source, int page, int pageSize)
    {
        return source.Skip((page - 1) * pageSize).Take(pageSize);
    }

}

That is a static class, which you can include in your sources. After adding this class you can do the following:

MyQuery.Page(pageNumber, pageSize)
