How would you convert this to use anonymous methods using visual cobol for visual studio 2017?  I am more interested in the delegates and the use of the linq join extension.  The property's I can get and convert.  I cannot figure out how to work the join expression using delegates for visual cobol .net.

List<State> states = new List<State>()
            {
                new State {SID = 1, SName = "Telangana", SCode = " 91", SAbbrevation = "TG"},
                new State {SID = 2, SName = "Texas", SCode = "512", SAbbrevation = "TS"},
            };

            List<Country> coutries = new List<Country>()
            {
                new Country {CID = 1, CName = "India", CAbbrevation = "IND"},
                new Country {CID = 2, CName = "US of America", CAbbrevation = "USA"},
            };

            var res = coutries.Join(states,
                delegate(Country a) { return a.CID; },
                delegate(State b) { return b.SID; },
                delegate(Country a, State b) { return new {a.CName, b.SName}; }).ToList();

        }

        public class State
        {
            public int SID { get; set; }
            public string SName { get; set; }
            public string SCode { get; set; }
            public string SAbbrevation { get; set; }
        }

        public class Country
        {
            public int CID { get; set; }
            public string CName { get; set; }
            public string CAbbrevation { get; set; }
        }

                };

                var res = coutries.Join(states,

            }

            public class State
            {
                public int SID { get; set; }
                public string SName { get; set; }

                public string CName { get; set; }
                public string CAbbrevation { get; set; }
            }

    The anonymous method syntax in Visual COBOL is very similar to C#. So in the case of:

    var res = coutries.Join(states,
    delegate(Country a) { return a.CID; },
    delegate(State b) { return b.SID; },
    delegate(Country a, State b) { return new {a.CName, b.SName}; }).ToList();

    ...somethind like:

    declare res = coutries::Join(states,
    delegate(Country a) returning ret as binary-long
    set ret to a::CID
    end-delegate
    ...
    I'm not in a position to try this out right now, but that should be the general idea...

                };

                {
                    new Country {CID = 1, CName = "India", CAbbrevation = "IND"},
                    new Country {CID = 2, CName = "US of America", CAbbrevation = "USA"},
                };

                var res = coutries.Join(states,

                    delegate(Country a, State b) { return new {a.CName, b.SName}; }).ToList();

            }

            public class State
            {
                public int SID { get; set; }
                public string SName { get; set; }
                public string SCode { get; set; }

                public string CName { get; set; }
                public string CAbbrevation { get; set; }
            }

    I figured it out if anyone would like to comment. There may be a better way but this is what I have thus far. I created another class to hold the combined list. I am calling it TO_ListJoin. It has all of the same properties as the States and Country's classes

    declare res = countries::Join(states,
    delegate(a as type TO_Country) returning x as binary-long
    set x = a::CID
    end-delegate,

    delegate(b as type TO_State) returning y as binary-long
    set y = b::SID
    end-delegate,

    delegate(c as type TO_Country, d as type TO_State) returning newlists as type TO_ListJoin
    set newlists = new type TO_ListJoin
    set newlists::CName = c::CName
    set newlists::SName = d::SName
    end-delegate
    )


    I could not figure out how to return a generic list and I thought mapping to class objects would be more efficient. Again, any comments would be appreciated.
