        var temp = books.SelectMany(book => book.Authors).Distinct();
        foreach (var author in temp)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(author.FirstName + " " + author.LastName);
        }

        Console.Read();
    }

}
public class Book
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public List<Author> Authors { get; set; }
}
public class Author
{
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
    public string LastName { get; set; }
    public override bool Equals(object obj)
    {
        return true;
        //if (obj.GetType() != typeof(Author)) return false;
        //else return ((Author)obj).FirstName == this.FirstName && ((Author)obj).FirstName == this.LastName;
    }

}

这基于“ LINQ in Action”中的示例。清单4.16

这将打印两次Jon Skeet。为什么？我什至尝试在Author类中重写Equals方法。仍然不同似乎没有用。我想念什么？

编辑：我也添加了==和！=运算符重载。仍然没有帮助。

 public static bool operator ==(Author a, Author b)
    {
        return true;
    }
    public static bool operator !=(Author a, Author b)
    {
        return false;
    }
