I want to modify a local variable in a function of extension method. See

int myvar=0;
MyList.Where(
    x =>
        {
            if (condition)
                myvar += 1;
            return false;
        });
return myvar;

But that is not working. What is the problem.

In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
