List conversion

[shapper]

Hello,

I am using the following to convert a CSV String to a List:

updated = paper.Tags.Split(',').Select(p => p.Trim()).ToList();

But I want to place the values in the Name property of a List of Tag
(Tag is a class with 2 properties: ID and Name)

I tried the following:

List<Tag> updated = paper.Tags.Split(',').Select(p =>
p.Trim()).ToList();

But of course I need to place this in each Tag.Name ...

Any idea?

Thanks,
Miguel

Try with a new inside Select.

Hi Miguel,

List<Tag> updated = (from s in paper.tags.Split(',')
select new Tag()
{
Name = s.Trim()
}).ToList();
