Question

找到下面描述的方案的解决方案花了我太长时间。看似简单的事情应该被证明是相当困难的。问题是：

使用Entity Framework 4.1（代码优先方法）和“独立关联”如何在“分离”场景（在我的例子中为Asp.Net）中为现有的“多对一”关系分配不同的结尾。

型号：

我意识到使用ForeignKey关系而不是独立关联可能是一种选择，但我喜欢在我的Pocos中没有ForeignKey实现。

客户有一个或多个目标：

    public class Customer:Person
{
    public string Number { get; set; }
    public string NameContactPerson { get; set; }
    private ICollection<Target> _targets;

    // Independent Association
    public virtual ICollection<Target> Targets
    {
        get { return _targets ?? (_targets = new Collection<Target>()); }
        set { _targets = value; }
    }
}

目标公司有一位客户：

    public class Target:EntityBase
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string Description { get; set; }
    public string Note { get; set; }
    public virtual Address Address { get; set; }
    public virtual Customer Customer { get; set; }
}

客户来自Person类：

    public class Person:EntityBase
{        
    public string Salutation { get; set; }
    public string Title { get; set; }
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
    public string LastName { get; set  ; }        
    public string Telephone1 { get; set; }
    public string Telephone2 { get; set; }
    public string Email { get; set; }        

    public virtual Address Address { get; set; }
}

EntityBase类提供了一些常见属性：

    public abstract class EntityBase : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
    public EntityBase()
    {
        CreateDate = DateTime.Now;
        ChangeDate = CreateDate;
        CreateUser = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name;
        ChangeUser = CreateUser;
        PropertyChanged += EntityBase_PropertyChanged;
    }

    public void EntityBase_PropertyChanged(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (Id != new Guid())
        {
            ChangeDate = DateTime.Now;
            ChangeUser = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name;
        }
    }

    protected virtual void OnPropertyChanged(PropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        PropertyChangedEventHandler handler = PropertyChanged;
        if (handler != null) handler(this, e);
    }

    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;

    public Guid Id { get; set; }
    public DateTime CreateDate { get; set; }
    public DateTime? ChangeDate { get; set; }
    public string CreateUser { get; set; }
    public string ChangeUser { get; set; }
}

上下文：

    public class TgrDbContext : DbContext
{
    public DbSet<Person> Persons { get; set; }
    public DbSet<Address> Addresses { get; set; }
    public DbSet<Customer> Customers { get; set; }
    public DbSet<Target> Targets { get; set; }
    public DbSet<ReportRequest> ReportRequests { get; set; }

    // If OnModelCreating becomes to big, use "Model Configuration Classes"
    //(derived from EntityTypeConfiguration) instead
    protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
    {
        modelBuilder.Entity<Person>().HasOptional(e => e.Address);            
        modelBuilder.Entity<Customer>().HasMany(c => c.Targets).WithRequired(t => t.Customer);            
    }

    public static ObjectContext TgrObjectContext(TgrDbContext tgrDbContext)
    {           
        return ((IObjectContextAdapter)tgrDbContext).ObjectContext;
    }
}

我等待@Martin的答案，因为有更多解决方案可以解决这个问题。这是另一个（至少它与ObjectContext API一起工作，所以它也应该与DbContext API一起使用）：

// Existing customer
var customer = new Customer() { Id = customerId };
// Another existing customer
var customer2 = new Customer() { Id = customerId2 };

var target = new Target { ID = oldTargetId };
// Make connection between target and old customer
target.Customer = customer;

// Attach target with old customer
context.Targets.Attach(target);
// Attach second customer
context.Customers.Attach(customer2);
// Set customer to a new value on attached object (it will delete old relation and add new one)
target.Customer = customer2;

// Change target's state to Modified
context.Entry(target).State = EntityState.Modified;
context.SaveChanges();

这里的问题是EF内部的状态模型和状态验证。具有强制关系的未更改或已修改状态的实体（在多方面）在没有其他处于已删除状态时不能在添加状态中具有独立关联。根本不允许修改关联状态。

有很多关于这个主题的信息;在stackoverflow上，我发现Ladislav Mrnka的见解特别有用。有关此主题的更多信息，请访问：NTier Improvements for Entity Framework和此处What's new in Entity Framework 4?

在我的项目（Asp.Net Webforms）中，用户可以选择使用不同的（现有）Customer对象替换分配给Target对象的Customer。此事务由绑定到ObjectDataSource的FormView控件执行。 ObjectDataSource与项目的BusinessLogic层进行通信，后者又将事务传递给DataAccess层中Target对象的存储库类。存储库类中Target对象的Update方法如下所示：

    public void UpdateTarget(Target target, Target origTarget)
    {
        try
        {
            // It is not possible to handle updating one to many relationships (i.e. assign a 
            // different Customer to a Target) with "Independent Associations" in Code First.
            // (It is possible when using "ForeignKey Associations" instead of "Independent 
            // Associations" but this brings about a different set of problems.)
            // In order to update one to many relationships formed by "Independent Associations"
            // it is necessary to resort to using the ObjectContext class (derived from an 
            // instance of DbContext) and 'manually' update the relationship between Target and Customer. 

            // Get ObjectContext from DbContext - ((IObjectContextAdapter)tgrDbContext).ObjectContext;
            ObjectContext tgrObjectContext = TgrDbContext.TgrObjectContext(_tgrDbContext);

            // Attach the original origTarget and update it with the current values contained in target
            // This does NOT update changes that occurred in an "Independent Association"; if target
            // has a different Customer assigned than origTarget this will go unrecognized
            tgrObjectContext.AttachTo("Targets", origTarget);
            tgrObjectContext.ApplyCurrentValues("Targets", target);

            // This will take care of changes in an "Independent Association". A Customer has many
            // Targets but any Target has exactly one Customer. Therefore the order of the two
            // ChangeRelationshipState statements is important: Delete has to occur first, otherwise
            // Target would have temporarily two Customers assigned.
            tgrObjectContext.ObjectStateManager.ChangeRelationshipState(
                origTarget,
                origTarget.Customer,
                o => o.Customer,
                EntityState.Deleted);

            tgrObjectContext.ObjectStateManager.ChangeRelationshipState(
                origTarget,
                target.Customer,
                o => o.Customer,
                EntityState.Added);

            // Commit
            tgrObjectContext.Refresh(RefreshMode.ClientWins, origTarget);
            tgrObjectContext.SaveChanges();
        }
        catch (Exception)
        {
            throw;
        }
    }

这适用于Target对象的Update方法。值得注意的是，插入新Target对象的过程更加容易。 DbContext正确识别独立关联的客户端，并将更改提交到数据库，而无需进一步操作。存储库类中的Insert方法如下所示：

        public void InsertTarget(Target target)
    {
        try
        {
            _tgrDbContext.Targets.Add(target);
            _tgrDbContext.SaveChanges();
        }
        catch (Exception)
        {
            throw;
        }
    }

希望这对处理类似任务的人有用。如果您发现上述方法存在问题，请在评论中告知我们。谢谢！
