C# Class Aspose.Words.Examples.CSharp.Mail_Merge.LINQtoXMLMailMerge.MyMailMergeDataSource

Aspose.Words does not accept LINQ queries as an input for mail merge directly, But provides a generic mechanism which allows mail merges from any data source. This class is a simple implementation of the Aspose.Words custom mail merge data source Interface that accepts a LINQ query (in fact any IEnumerable object). Aspose.Words calls this class during the mail merge to retrieve the data.

Public Methods

Method	Description
GetChildDataSource ( string tableName ) : IMailMergeDataSource
GetValue ( string fieldName, object &fieldValue ) : bool	Aspose.Words calls this method to get a value for every data field. This is a simple "generic" implementation of a data source that can work over Any IEnumerable collection. This implementation assumes that the merge field Name in the document matches the name of a public property on the object In the collection and uses reflection to get the value of the property.
MoveNext ( ) : bool	Moves to the next record in the collection.
MyMailMergeDataSource ( IEnumerable data ) : Aspose.Words	Creates a new instance of a custom mail merge data source.
MyMailMergeDataSource ( IEnumerable data, string tableName ) : Aspose.Words	Creates a new instance of a custom mail merge data source, for mail merge with regions.
