Unit of Work and EF

问题


I'm making an interface following the Unit of Work pattern. My interface looks like this:

public interface IDataContext : IDisposable
{
    void SaveChanges();   
    TSource Create<TSource>(TSource toCreate) where TSource : class;
    TSource Update<TSource>(TSource toUpdate) where TSource : class;
    bool Delete<TSource>(TSource toDelete) where TSource : class;
    IQueryable<TSource> Query<TSource>();
}

So far so good. Now I implement it in my Data Layer, which uses EF4 as data provider. I came up with this code for the "Query" method, but I think it's not very clean, I feel there's a clever way to do it but I can't really figure out.

public IQueryable<TSource> Query<TSource>()
    {
        var type = typeof(TSource);
        IQueryable item = null;

        if (type == typeof(Activity)) item = _entities.ActivitySet;
        if (type == typeof(Company)) item = _entities.CompanySet;
        if (type == typeof(Phase)) item = _entities.PhasesSet;
        if (type == typeof(Project)) item = _entities.ProjectSet;
        if (type == typeof(ProjectState)) item = _entities.ProjectStateSet;
        if (type == typeof(ProjectType)) item = _entities.ProjectTypeSet;
        if (type == typeof(User)) item = _entities.UserSet;
        if (type == typeof(UserType)) item = _entities.UserTypeSet;
        if (item != null) return item as IQueryable<TSource>;

        throw new NotImplementedException(string.Format("Query not implemented for type {0}", type.FullName));
    }

The problems I see here are all the IFs get tested every time, althought I could chain them in a cascading if-else but still looks pretty awful to me. The other problems is that I have to manually add one line for each new entity that might get added, but it's not my main concern.

Anyone has any good advice on this? Thanks.

If you are using EF4 you can just call CreateObjectSet<>.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data.Objects;
using System.Linq;

namespace WindowsFormsApplication1
{
    static class Program
    {
        [STAThread]
        static void Main()
        {
            var context = new DataContext(new NorthwindEntities());
            var list = context.Query<Customer>().ToList();
            var list2 = context.Query<Customer>().ToList();
        }
    }

    public class DataContext : IDataContext
    {
        private Dictionary<Type, object> _objectSets = new Dictionary<Type,object>();
        private ObjectContext _entities;

        public DataContext(ObjectContext objectContext)
        {
            this._entities = objectContext;
        }

        public IQueryable<T> Query<T>()
            where T : class
        {
            Type entityType = typeof(T);
            ObjectSet<T> objectSet;

            if (this._objectSets.ContainsKey(entityType))
            {
                objectSet = this._objectSets[entityType] as ObjectSet<T>;
            }
            else
            {
                objectSet = this._entities.CreateObjectSet<T>();
                this._objectSets.Add(entityType, objectSet);
            }

            return objectSet;
        }
    }

    interface IDataContext
    {
        IQueryable<T> Query<T>() where T : class;
    }
}

If you are using EF1 you can call CreateQuery<> but you will also need to find the Entity Set Name.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data.Metadata.Edm;
using System.Data.Objects;
using System.Linq;

namespace WindowsFormsApplication2
{
    static class Program
    {
        [STAThread]
        static void Main()
        {
            var context = new DataContext(new NorthwindEntities());
            var list = context.Query<Customer>().ToList();
        }
    }

    public class DataContext : IDataContext
    {
        private Dictionary<string, string> _entitySets;
        private ObjectContext _entities;

        public DataContext(ObjectContext objectContext)
        {
            this._entities = objectContext;
        }

        public IQueryable<T> Query<T>()
            where T : class
        {
            return this._entities.CreateQuery<T>(this.GetEntitySetName<T>());
        }

        private string GetEntitySetName<T>()
            where T : class
        {
            if (this._entitySets == null)
            {
                // create a dictionary of the Entity Type/EntitySet Name
                this._entitySets = this._entities.MetadataWorkspace
                                                 .GetItems<EntityContainer>(DataSpace.CSpace)
                                                 .First()
                                                 .BaseEntitySets.OfType<EntitySet>().ToList()
                                                 .ToDictionary(d => d.ElementType.Name, d => d.Name);
            }

            Type entityType = typeof(T);

            // lookup the entity set name based on the entityType
            return this._entitySets[entityType.Name];
        }
    }

    interface IDataContext
    {
        IQueryable<T> Query<T>() where T : class;
    }
}



回答2:


One way can be not using autogenerated ObjectContext with all predefined ObjectSets and instead call:

public IQueryable<TSource> Query<TSource>
{
  return _entities.CreateObjectSet<TSource>();
}

But I'm not sure what performance impact has creating object set each time you want to execute query. I usually have some lazy initialization of object sets (using dictionary to store already created object sets) and reusing them for single unit of work instance.
