Create own data examples in LinqPad - linqpad

Question

I have a class (vb.net) with some data that I want to query in LinqPad. I already worked with some examples as the one from "Linq in Action" so they work with some kind of classes with data as well to explain queries. But I just cannot find anything about how to import or write your own classes. Could anyone help me here?
My Class looks like:
Public Class Employee
Public Property ID As Integer
Public Property Salery As Integer
Public Property Name As String
Public Property Department As String
Public Property Gender As String
Public Shared Function GetAllEmployees() As List(Of Employee)
Return New List(Of Employee) From { _
New Employee With {.ID = 1, .Name = "Mark", .Department = "HR", .Gender = "Male", .Salery = 12000},
New Employee With {.ID = 2, .Name = "Sandra", .Department = "IT", .Gender = "Female", .Salery = 2000} _
}
End Function
End Class

Answer 1

You might be missing a couple things about using LINQPad:
Set the Language to "VB Program" and put classes where the comment says to.
Use the Dump method to output an expression. (For "VB Expression", Dump is called automatically.)
Here is an example. (Note, you might be using that SQL-looking syntax.)
Sub Main
Employee.GetAllEmployees() _
.Where(Function (employee) employee.Department = "HR") _
.Dump()
Dim hrEmployees = From employee In Employee.GetAllEmployees()
Where employee.Department = "HR"
hrEmployees.Dump()
End Sub
' Define other methods and classes here
Public Class Employee
Public Property ID As Integer
Public Property Salery As Integer
Public Property Name As String
Public Property Department As String
Public Property Gender As String
Public Shared Function GetAllEmployees() As List(Of Employee)
Return New List(Of Employee) From { _
New Employee With {.ID = 1, .Name = "Mark", .Department = "HR", .Gender = "Male", .Salery = 12000},
New Employee With {.ID = 2, .Name = "Sandra", .Department = "IT", .Gender = "Female", .Salery = 2000} _
}
End Function
End Class
