convert a string to a linq query

Question

is there an easy way to convert a string to a linq query?

e.g. var query = StringToLINQQuery(AString);

has somebody the implementation for this method?

a linq query according to the ms examples, in the simplest case: from p in DB.Table select p — mnemonic, Dec 09 '10 at 10:54

You would have to compile the string.

The compiler as a service feature is scheduled for C# 5, so it's not here yet. It's already available on Mono, but Mono's support for LINQ was quite shaky last time I checked.

@max, to my knowledge, there's no independent C# parser, so you would still need the compiler to do that. – Frédéric Hamidi Dec 09 '10 at 11:28
