Expression Tree Binary Expression for an 'In' operation

I'm trying to build an expression tree (still) but getting further! I need to 开发者_如何转开发create a BinaryExpression to perform an 'In' comparison between a Member and a collection of items. Hence, the expression should return true if the member is contained within the items.

This obviously does not exist:

Expression.MakeBinary(ExpressionType.In, memberExpression, constantExpression);

constantExpression is a ConstantExpression of type IEnumerable<T> while memberExpression is a MemberExpression of type T.

How would I create such an expression?

You'd usually use "Contains" instead - that's how you typically write a LINQ query which would map to "IN" in SQL:

var query = from user in db.Users
            where specialUsers.Contains(user.Name)
            select user.Id;

Just wanted to added how I ultimately got this to work:

var callExpression = Expression.Call(typeof(Enumerable), "Contains", new Type[] {memberExpression.Type}, constantExpression, memberExpression);

Compiling and invoking the callExpression will yield whether or not a memberExpression is within the constantExpression collection.
