对一组匿名类型执行 Sum()：可能吗？

Question

如果我从查询中选择匿名类型 (select new)：

 var smsPerGroup = from g in db.Groups
                   select new
                   {
                       GroupName = g.Name,
                       ReceivedSMS = g.Members.SelectMany(p => p.ReceivedSMS).Count()
                   };

碰巧我不能 sum() ：

int max = smsPerGroup.Max(g => g.ReceivedSMS);  // ERROR!

抛出的错误是： There was an error parsing the query.

对此最正确的解决方案是什么？

我不想在这个查询中创建一个只使用一次的类。

是否有可能有一个 “不是很匿名” 类型？这是：定义其属性的类型而不是类本身的类型

类似这样的：（语法不正确）

    ...
   select new
   {
       string GroupName = g.Name,
       int ReceivedSMS = g.Members.SelectMany(p => p.ReceivedSMS).Count()
   };

编辑：详细错误如下

There was an error parsing the query. [ Token line number = 6,Token line offset = 5,Token in error = SELECT ]

Answer 1

一个简单的解决方案是在调用 .Sum() 之前使用 .ToList() 实现查询：

var test = (from g in db.Groups
            select new
            {
                GroupName = g.Name,
                ReceivedSMS = g.Members.SelectMany(p => p.ReceivedSMS).Count()
            }).ToList();

var sum = test.Sum(t => t.ReceivedSMS);
