この単純なモデルとビューモデルのシナリオを考えてみましょう:
public class SomeModel
{
public virtual Company company {get; set;}
public string name {get; set;}
public string address {get; set;}
//some other few tens of properties
}
public class SomeViewModel
{
public Company company {get; set;}
public string name {get; set;}
public string address {get; set;}
//some other few tens of properties
}
発生する問題は次のとおりです。
会社が不要な編集ページがあるため、データベースから取得しません。フォームが送信されたら、次のことを行います。
SomeModel destinationModel = someContext.SomeModel.Include("Company").Where( i => i.Id == id) // assume id is available from somewhere.
それから私は
Company oldCompany = destinationModel.company; // save it before mapper assigns it null
Mapper.Map(sourceViewModel,destinationModel);
//After this piece of line my company in destinationModel will be null because sourceViewModel's company is null. Great!!
//so I assign old company to it
destinationModel.company = oldCompany;
context.Entry(destinationModel).State = EntityState.Modified;
context.SaveChanges();
そして問題は、oldCompany を会社に割り当てても、savechanges 後にデータベースでまだ null です。
ノート：
これらの行を変更すると:
destinationModel.company = oldCompany;
context.Entry(destinationModel).State = EntityState.Modified;
context.SaveChanges();
これらに：
context.Entry(destinationModel).State = EntityState.Modified;
destinationModel.company = oldCompany;
context.Entry(destinationModel).State = EntityState.Modified;
context.SaveChanges();
状態を 2 回変更したことに注意してください。正常に動作します。何が問題になる可能性がありますか? これは ef 4.1 のバグですか?
