linq to entities - How to convert anynoymous type? -

i try convert anonymous type class don't.

my code in viewmodel :

  <public list**<???>** poolcondition { get; set; }          entities db = new entities();           public selectlistviewmodel()         {              string lang = sessionmanager.language;                 var poolcondition = (from ddlv in db.dropdownlistvalue                                  ddlv_t in ddlv.dropdownlistvalue_translation                                  ddlv_t.language.code == lang                                                                   select new { ddlv.id, ddlv_t.traduction }).tolist();              poolcondition = poolcondition; 

i've error width poolcondition=poolcondition, because poolcondition anonymous type. how cast list poolcondition??

thank you!

rather creating list of anonymous types, why not create list of objects? perhaps like:

var poolcondition = (from ddlv in db.dropdownlistvalue                      ddlv_t in ddlv.dropdownlistvalue_translation                      ddlv_t.language.code == lang                             //initialize object appropriately                      select new poolcondition { id = ddlv.id, traduction = ddlv_t.traduction })                     .tolist();
