I have a list that I need sorted by two fields. I've tried using OrderBy in LINQ but that only allows me to specify one field. I'm looking for the list to be sorted by the
first field and then if there are any duplicates in the
first field to sort by the second field.
For example I want the results to look like this (sorted by last name then
first name).
Adams, John
Smith, James
Smith, Peter
Thompson, Fred
I've seen that you can use the SQL like syntax to accomplish this but I am looking for a way to do it with the OrderBy method.
IList<Person> listOfPeople = /*The list is filled somehow.*/
IEnumerable<Person> sortedListOfPeople = listOfPeople.OrderBy(aPerson => aPerson.LastName, aPerson.FirstName); //This doesn't work.
