asp.net mvc 3 - MVC 3: Passing multiple queries to a view -

i have 2 queries in aggregatemodel, , i'd them passed through index view used in 2 separate foreach loop. of moment both being passed through in 1 model.

the model

public class aggregatemodel {     public list<task> tasks { get; set; }     public list<event> events { get; set; } } 

homecontroller.cs

var model = new aggregatemodel(); model.tasks = db.task.where(n => (n.userid == userid) && (n.completed == false) && (n.due < datetime)).tolist(); model.events = db.events.where(n => (n.userid == userid) && (n.start < datetime)).tolist();  return view(model); 

this majority if view, redundant bits removed:

@model ienumerable<projectapp.models.aggregatemodel>  <div id="upcoming-tasks">     <h4>your upcoming tasks</h4>      <ul class="upcoming">     @foreach (var item in model.tasks)     {         <li>@html.actionlink(item.title, "details", new { id = item.taskid })</li>     }     <li>add @html.actionlink("task", "create", "task")</li>     </ul> </div>  <div id="upcoming-events">     <h4>your upcoming events</h4>      <ul class="upcoming">     @foreach (var item in model.events)     {         <li>@html.actionlink(item.title, "details", new { id = item.eventid })</li>     }     <li>add @html.actionlink("task", "create", "task")</li>     </ul> </div> 

as can see, foreach loop calls model, has 2 queries in it. have 2 loops each running 1 of queries.

many in advance.

on top of view should have:

@model aggregatemodel 

and not

@model ienumerable<task> 

then can loop:

@foreach (var item in model.tasks) { }  ...  @foreach (var item in model.events) { } 

and because looping in view ugly should use editor/display templates simplify code to:

@html.displayfor(x => x.tasks) ... @html.displayfor(x => x.events) 

where should define corresponding ~/views/shared/displaytemplates/task.cshtml , ~/views/shared/displaytemplates/event.cshtml templates rendered each element of collection.
