空合并运算符在实体框架 6 中不起作用

Question

我目前正在将应用程序从 EF5 迁移到 EF6，但在运行此查询的单元测试中遇到了问题：

return (from employeeWorkLocation in Retrieve()
                    where employeeWorkLocation.ClientId == clientId
                     && employeeWorkLocation.EmpUid == empUid
                     && employeeWorkLocation.EffectiveDate <= effectiveDate
                     && (!employeeWorkLocation.EffectiveEndDate.HasValue || employeeWorkLocation.EffectiveEndDate > effectiveDate)
                    join locationEntity in Context.WorkLocationEntities on employeeWorkLocation.WorkLocationUid equals locationEntity.WorkLocationUid into workLocations
                    from workLocation in workLocations.Where(wl => wl.Inactive == GenericYesNo.NO).DefaultIfEmpty()
                    select new EmployeeWorkLocation()
                    {
                        ClientId = employeeWorkLocation.ClientId,
                        EffectiveDate = employeeWorkLocation.EffectiveDate,
                        EffectiveEndDate = employeeWorkLocation.EffectiveEndDate,
                        EmployeeWorkLocationUid = employeeWorkLocation.EmployeeWorkLocationUid,
                        EmpUid = employeeWorkLocation.EmpUid,
                        MetaApplication = employeeWorkLocation.MetaApplication,
                        //MetaDateCreated = employeeWorkLocation.MetaDateCreated ?? DateTimeHelper.NowUnspecified,
                        MetaCreatedBy = employeeWorkLocation.MetaCreatedBy,
                        //MetaDateUpdated = employeeWorkLocation.MetaDateUpdated ?? DateTimeHelper.NowUnspecified,
                        MetaUpdatedBy = employeeWorkLocation.MetaUpdatedBy,
                        WorkLocationUid = employeeWorkLocation.WorkLocationUid,
                        HrLocationUid = workLocation.HRPLocationUid
                    }).OrderByDescending(e => e.EffectiveDate).FirstOrDefault();

由于某种原因，如果我删除上面的 cmets，我会收到此错误：

System.Data.Entity.Core.EntityCommandExecutionException：错误 执行命令定义时发生。见内 细节例外。 ---> System.ArgumentException：参数类型 不匹配

我尝试将这些行更改为长版本（三元运算符），但仍然没有运气。我得到同样的错误：

MetaDateCreated = employeeWorkLocation.MetaDateCreated != null ? employeeWorkLocation.MetaDateCreated.Value ： DateTimeHelper.Now 未指定，

employeeWorkLocation.MetaDateCreated 和 employeeWorkLocation.MetaDateUpdated 都是可以为空的 Datetime? 类型

DateTimeHelper.NowUnspecified 是Datetime 不可为空的类型。与MetaDateCreated 和MetaDateUpdated 相同

有什么想法吗？这在 Entity Framework 5 中运行良好

更新：这是DateTimeHelper.NowUnspecified的定义：

public static DateTime NowUnspecified
{
    get
    {
        return DateTime.SpecifyKind(DateTime.Now, DateTimeKind.Unspecified);
    }
}

如果我按照 cmets 中的建议将 DateTimeHelper.NowUnspecified 替换为 DateTimeHelper.Now，我的测试将通过...

Update2： 使用 LinqPad 隔离问题后，我意识到 Entity Framework 6 正在正确处理查询。问题在于抛出异常的 Effort.EF6 库

谢谢，

问题是 EF 不知道如何将您的属性转换为 sql。如果您确实需要使用该属性（或将来遇到类似情况），您可以通过强制 EF 在该部分逻辑之前执行查询并在本地应用它来实现：

return (from employeeWorkLocation in Retrieve()
                    where employeeWorkLocation.ClientId == clientId
                     && employeeWorkLocation.EmpUid == empUid
                     && employeeWorkLocation.EffectiveDate <= effectiveDate
                     && (!employeeWorkLocation.EffectiveEndDate.HasValue || employeeWorkLocation.EffectiveEndDate > effectiveDate)
                    join locationEntity in Context.WorkLocationEntities on employeeWorkLocation.WorkLocationUid equals locationEntity.WorkLocationUid into workLocations
                    from workLocation in workLocations.Where(wl => wl.Inactive == GenericYesNo.NO).DefaultIfEmpty()
                    select new{employeeWorkLocation, workLocation})
                    .ToArray() //this will cause EF to run the query
                    //Everything below this runs in the .NET code 
                    //rather than on sql server
                    .Select(wl => new EmployeeWorkLocation()
                    {
                        ClientId = wl.employeeWorkLocation.ClientId,
                        EffectiveDate = wl.employeeWorkLocation.EffectiveDate,
                        EffectiveEndDate = wl.employeeWorkLocation.EffectiveEndDate,
                        EmployeeWorkLocationUid = wl.employeeWorkLocation.EmployeeWorkLocationUid,
                        EmpUid = wl.employeeWorkLocation.EmpUid,
                        MetaApplication = wl.employeeWorkLocation.MetaApplication,
                        MetaDateCreated = wl.employeeWorkLocation.MetaDateCreated ?? DateTimeHelper.NowUnspecified,
                        MetaCreatedBy = wl.employeeWorkLocation.MetaCreatedBy,
                        MetaDateUpdated = wl.employeeWorkLocation.MetaDateUpdated ?? DateTimeHelper.NowUnspecified,
                        MetaUpdatedBy = employeeWorkLocation.MetaUpdatedBy,
                        WorkLocationUid = wl.employeeWorkLocation.WorkLocationUid,
                        HrLocationUid = wl.workLocation?.HRPLocationUid
                    }).OrderByDescending(e => e.EffectiveDate).FirstOrDefault();
