如何左外连接c#中的两个DataTable?

如何保留左外连接(我认为是左外连接,但我不是100%确定)两个数据表,包含以下表和条件,同时保留两个表中的所有列?

dtblLeft:

 id   col1   anotherColumn2
 1    1      any2
 2    1      any2
 3    2      any2
 4    3      any2
 5    3      any2
 6    3      any2
 7           any2

dtblRight:

 col1   col2      anotherColumn1
 1      Hi        any1
 2      Bye       any1
 3      Later     any1
 4      Never     any1

dtblJoined:

 id   col1  col2     anotherColumn1     anotherColumn2
 1    1     Hi       any1               any2
 2    1     Hi       any1               any2
 3    2     Bye      any1               any2
 4    3     Later    any1               any2
 5    3     Later    any1               any2
 6    3     Later    any1               any2
 7                                      any2

条件:

  • 在dtblLeft中,col1不需要具有唯一值。
  • 在dtblRight中,col1具有唯一值。
  • 如果dtblLeft在col1中缺少一个外键,或者它有一个在dtblRight中不存在的外键,那么将插入空或空字段。
  • 加入col1。

我可以使用常规的DataTable操作,LINQ或其他任何操作。

我尝试了这个,但它删除了重复:

dtblA.PrimaryKey = new DataColumn[] {dtblA.Columns["col1"]}

DataTable dtblJoined = new DataTable();
dtblJoined.Merge(dtblA, false, MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey);
dtblJoined.Merge(dtblB, false, MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey);

编辑1:

这就像我想要的那样,但它只有一个表中的列(在link找到):

    dtblJoined = (from t1 in dtblA.Rows.Cast<DataRow>()
                  join t2 in dtblB.Rows.Cast<DataRow>() on t1["col1"] equals t2["col1"]
                  select t1).CopyToDataTable();

编辑2:

这个link的回答似乎对我有用,但我不得不改变它如下:

DataTable targetTable = dtblA.Clone();
var dt2Columns = dtblB.Columns.OfType<DataColumn>().Select(dc =>
new DataColumn(dc.ColumnName, dc.DataType, dc.Expression, dc.ColumnMapping));
var dt2FinalColumns = from dc in dt2Columns.AsEnumerable()
                   where targetTable.Columns.Contains(dc.ColumnName) == false
                   select dc;

targetTable.Columns.AddRange(dt2FinalColumns.ToArray());

var rowData = from row1 in dtblA.AsEnumerable()
                          join row2 in dtblB.AsEnumerable()
                          on row1["col1"] equals row2["col1"]
                          select row1.ItemArray.Concat(row2.ItemArray.Where(r2 => row1.ItemArray.Contains(r2) == false)).ToArray();

 foreach (object[] values in rowData)
      targetTable.Rows.Add(values);

我也发现了这个link,我可能会尝试一下,因为它看起来更简洁。

感谢大家的帮助。以下是我根据多种资源提出的建议:

        /// Same as Left Outer join. Left outer join produces a complete set of records from Table A, with the matching records (where available) in Table B. If there is no match, the right side will contain null.

        Left = 1
    }

此方法现在可以正常工作,当表格有2000多行时,它仍然很快。任何建议/建议/改进将不胜感激。

编辑4:

我有一个特定的场景让我意识到以前的版本真的在做一个内部联接。该功能已被修改以解决该问题。我在link使用了信息来解决这个问题。

答案 1 :(得分:1)

这只是两个表之间的内部联接:

var query = (from x in a.AsEnumerable()
              join y in b.AsEnumerable() on x.Field<int>("col1") equals y.Field<int>("col1")
              select new { col1= y.Field<int>("col1"), col2=x.Field<int>("col2") }).ToList();

产地:

col1 col2
1    Hi 
1    Hi 
2    Bye 
3    Later 
3    Later 
3    Later 

答案 2 :(得分:0)

您可以使用LINQ并执行以下操作:

var dtblJoined = from dB in dtblB.AsEnumerable()
                 join dA in dtblA.AsEnumerable() on dA.col1 equals dB.col1 into dAB
                 from d in dAB.DefaultIfEmpty()
                 select new (col1 = dB.col1, ; col2 = (dB.col1 == dA.col1) ? dA.col2 : null);

这会返回一个IEnumerable而不是DataTable,但是它应该让你更接近你想要的东西。可能需要稍微调整一下。
