查询实体和关联(实体框架快速入门)

在本任务中,您将针对在 School 模型中表示实体和关联的 CLR 对象创建强类型查询,并将显示控件绑定到从这些查询中返回的对象集合。

在 School 数据库中查询系

  1. CourseViewer 窗体的代码文件的开始处,添加以下 using (C#) 或 Imports (Visual Basic) 语句,以引用从 School 数据库和实体命名空间中创建的模型。

    Imports System.Data.Objects
    Imports System.Data.Objects.DataClasses
    
    using System.Data.Objects;
    using System.Data.Objects.DataClasses;
    
  2. CourseViewer 窗体的分部类定义的顶部,添加以下用于创建 ObjectContext 实例的代码。

    ' Create an ObjectContext instance based on SchoolEntity.
    Private schoolContext As SchoolEntities
    
    // Create an ObjectContext instance based on SchoolEntity.
    private SchoolEntities schoolContext;
    
  3. CourseViewer 窗体设计器中,双击 CourseViewer 窗体。

    此时将打开窗体的代码页并创建 courseViewer _Load 事件处理程序方法。

  4. courseViewer _Load 事件处理程序方法中,复制并粘贴以下用于定义 DataGridView 的代码,执行返回系科集合的查询(按 Name 排序),然后将 Department 对象的集合绑定到 departmentList 控件。

    ' Initialize the ObjectContext.
    schoolContext = New SchoolEntities()
    
    ' Define a query that returns all Department objects and related
    ' Course objects, ordered by name.
    Dim departmentQuery As ObjectQuery(Of Department) = _
        schoolContext.Department.Include("Course").OrderBy("it.Name")
    
    Try
        ' Bind the ComboBox control to the query, which is 
        ' executed during data binding.
        Me.departmentList.DataSource = departmentQuery
        Me.departmentList.DisplayMember = "Name"
    Catch ex As Exception
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
    End Try
    
    // Initialize the ObjectContext.
    schoolContext = new SchoolEntities();
    
    // Define a query that returns all Department objects and related
    // Course objects, ordered by name.
    ObjectQuery<Department> departmentQuery =
        schoolContext.Department.Include("Course").OrderBy("it.Name");
    
    try
    {
        // Bind the ComboBox control to the query, which is
        // executed during data binding.
        this.departmentList.DataSource = departmentQuery;
        this.departmentList.DisplayMember = "Name";
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
    }
    

显示所选系的课程

  1. CourseViewer 窗体设计器中,双击 departmentList 控件。

    此时将创建 departmentList_SelectedIndexChanged 事件处理程序方法。

  2. 粘贴以下用于加载与所选系相关的课程的代码。

    Try
        ' Get the object for the selected department.
        Dim department As Department = _
            CType(Me.departmentList.SelectedItem, Department)
    
        ' Bind the grid view to the collection of Course objects 
        ' that are related to the selected Department object.
        courseGridView.DataSource = department.Course
        courseGridView.AutoResizeColumns(DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.AllCells)
    Catch ex As Exception
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
    End Try
    
    try
    {
        // Get the object for the selected department.
        Department department = 
            (Department)this.departmentList.SelectedItem;
    
        // Bind the grid view to the collection of Course objects 
        // that are related to the selected Department object.
        courseGridView.DataSource = department.Course;
    
        courseGridView.AutoResizeColumns(DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.AllCells);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
    }
    

后续步骤

您已成功地创建了返回 DepartmentCourse 对象的查询并将这些对象绑定到控件。接下来,您需要将在数据网格中对 Course 对象所做的更改保存到数据库中:插入和更新数据(实体框架快速入门)
