I'm new in using Linq and I'm having a problem on how to Concat a max value in my database to be used as unique attribute using linq. I have found a solution but it is written in SQL query



(select ISNULL(MAX(PersonID + 1), 100000) as nn from Persons)



and tried it and the max personId is 80 so the output becomes 100081 Thanks



EDIT: so i stand corrected, it only acts as Case, sorry guys i feel so dumb :(

  • If the max personId is 80, from this query it will return 81. Also I don't understand 100000 part, why you would set to 100000 if your id does not exist in that table?

  • @SeM no sir it will return 100081 because of the 100000 that is being concat

    Where do you see Concat here? It will check if PersonId is null then it will SELECT 100000 if it is not - MAX(PersonID + 1).

  • could you run this command and check output (select ISNULL(MAX(PersonID + 1), 999999999) as nn from Persons)

    @EnriqueGil It is the same with: var maxId = context.Persons.Max(p => (int?)p.PersonID); maxId = maxId != null ? maxId+1 : 100000;
