【问题标题】:Generic expression for where clause - "The LINQ expression node type 'Invoke' is not supported in LINQ to Entities."where 子句的通用表达式 - “LINQ to Entities 不支持 LINQ 表达式节点类型 'Invoke'。”

【问题描述】:

我正在尝试编写一个非常通用的方法来批量加载 EF 实体,使用 Contains 方法生成 SQL IN 语句。如果我传入整个表达式,我就可以正常工作,但是当我尝试动态构建表达式时,我得到一个“LINQ to Entities 不支持 LINQ 表达式节点类型'Invoke'”。所以我知道这意味着 EF 认为我在调用任意方法,它无法将其转换为 SQL,但我不知道如何让它理解底层表达式。

所以如果我做这样的事情(只显示相关的 sn-ps):

函数声明:

public static List<T> Load<T>(IQueryable<T> entityQuery, int[] entityIds, Func<T, int> entityKey, int batchSize = 500, Func<T, bool> postFilter = null) where T : EntityObject
{
    var retList = new List<T>();

    // Append a where clause to the query passed in, that will use a Contains expression, which generates a SQL IN statement.  So our SQL looks something like
    // WHERE [ItemTypeId] IN (1921,1920,1922)
    // See http://rogeralsing.com/2009/05/21/entity-framework-4-where-entity-id-in-array/ for details
    Func<int[], Expression<Func<T, bool>>> containsExpression = (entityArray => (expr => entityArray.Contains(entityKey(expr))));

    // Build a new query with the current batch of IDs to retrieve and add it to the list we are returning
    newQuery = entityQuery.Where<T>(containsExpression(entityIds));
    retList.AddRange(newQuery.ToList());

    return retList;
} 

调用函数:

var entities = BatchEntity.Load<ItemType>(from eItemType in dal.Context.InstanceContainer.ItemTypes
select eItemType
, itemTypeData
, (ek => ek.ItemTypeId)
);

我收到“LINQ to Entities 不支持 LINQ 表达式节点类型‘Invoke’。”

但如果我把它改成这样:

函数声明:

public static List<T> Load<T>(IQueryable<T> entityQuery, int[] entityIds, Func<int[], Expression<Func<T, bool>>> containsExpression, int batchSize = 500, Func<T, bool> postFilter = null) where T : EntityObject
{
    var retList = new List<T>();

    // Build a new query with the current batch of IDs to retrieve and add it to the list we are returning
    newQuery = entityQuery.Where<T>(containsExpression(entityIds));
    retList.AddRange(newQuery.ToList());

    return retList;
} 

调用函数:

var entities = BatchEntity.Load<ItemType>(from eItemType in dal.Context.InstanceContainer.ItemTypes
select eItemType
, itemTypeData
, (entityArray => (ek => entityArray.Contains(ek.ItemTypeId)))
);

它工作正常。有什么方法可以让 EF 理解更通用的版本?

    【解决方案1】:

    正如您所描述的,问题在于第一个示例中的 entityKey 函数是不透明的,因为它的类型是 Func 而不是 Expression。但是,您可以通过实现 Compose() 方法来组合两个表达式来获得所需的行为。我在这个问题中发布了实现撰写的代码:use Expression<Func<T,X>> in Linq contains extension

    使用 Compose() 实现后,您的函数可以实现如下:

    public static List<T> Load<T>(this IQueryable<T> entityQuery, 
                                  int[] entityIds, 
                                  // note that this is an expression now
                                  Expression<Func<T, int>> entityKey, 
                                  int batchSize = 500, 
                                  Expression<Func<T, bool>> postFilter = null) 
        where T : EntityObject
    {
        Expression<Func<int, bool>> containsExpression = id => entityIds.Contains(id);
        Expression<Func<T, bool>> whereInEntityIdsExpression = containsExpression.Compose(entityKey);
    
        IQueryable<T> filteredById = entityQuery.Where(whereInEntityIdsExpression);
    
        // if your post filter is compilable to SQL, you might as well do the filtering
        // in the database
        if (postFilter != null) { filteredById = filteredById.Where(postFilter); }
    
        // finally, pull into memory
        return filteredById.ToList();
    }

    • 谢谢大通奖章。它工作得很好。我想我会在我要编写的其他代码中使用 Compose!
