linq case insensitive (without toUpper or toLower)

Question

public Articles GetByName(string name, Categories category, Companies company)
{
    var query = from article in session.Linq()
                where         


        

Answer 1

Use string.Equals(name, article.Name, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) when you are sure that your database supports it.

E.g. SQLite with a collate of NOCASE will ignore the option. Oracle uses session settings NLS_COMP, NLS_SORT that will be taken.

Else use ToLower() or ToUpper() when you have no culture issues.
