总结一下我的模型：

  • 执照和证书是资格的孩子
  • 一个资格只有一个职业
  • 专业是许可类型（类型 1）或认证类型（类型 2）

要求：表示业务实体之间的关系，而不在数据库模式中引入冗余。资格类型（执照/证书）必须与专业类型相匹配。

这是我目前的简化模型——我在下面解释了为什么这不起作用：

Public Class Profession
    <Key()>
    <DataMember(Order:=0)>
    Public Property Type As Integer
    <Key()>
    <DataMember(Order:=1)>
    Public Property Code As String

    Public Property Title As String
End Class

Public Class Qualification
    Public Property Id As Integer
    Public Property PersonId As Integer
    Public Property Type As Integer
    Public Property ProfessionCode As String
    Public Overridable Property Person As Person
    Public Overridable Property Profession As Profession
End Class

Public Class License
    Inherits Qualification

    Public Property Number As String        
End Class

Public Class Certificate
    Inherits Qualification

    Public Property IssuerName As String    
End Class

这是简化的模型构建器：

modelBuilder.Entity(Of Qualification) _
    .Property(Function(q) q.ProfessionCode).IsRequired()

modelBuilder.Entity(Of Qualification) _
    .HasRequired(Of Profession)(Function(q) q.Profession) _
    .HasConstraint(Function(q, p) p.Type = q.Type AndAlso p.Code = q.ProfessionCode)

modelBuilder.Entity(Of Qualification) _
    .MapHierarchy() _
    .Case(Of Qualification)(Function(q) New With {
        q.Id,
        q.PersonId,
        q.ProfessionCode,
        .Type = 0) _
    .Case(Of License)(Function(q) New With {
        q.Number,
        .Type = 1}) _
    .Case(Of Certificate)(Function(q) New With {
        q.IssuerName,
        .Type = 2}) _
    .ToTable("dbo.Qualifications")

这不起作用的原因是 EF4不允许FK 属性兼作 TPH 鉴别器。这意味着 Type 不能既是鉴别符又是外键字段。尝试在 HasConstraint 方法中为每个实体硬编码职业类型也不起作用——这会产生异常。

一个可能的解决方案是向 Profession 添加一个代理键，去掉 Qualification 中的 Type 属性并将其替换为 ProfessionId FK。这将消除冗余问题，但也会破坏 TPH。实际上，鉴别器从资格转移到职业。这里的问题是我还没有找到映射许可证和证书对象的方法。也许我可以映射到视图？但是我如何在 Code First 中做到这一点？

所以，现在我面临着许多令人不快的选择。有什么建议么？

我设法通过将其更改为此模型使其工作：

public class Profession {    
    [Key][DataMember(Order = 0)]    
    public int Type { get; set; }
    [Key][DataMember(Order = 1)]
    public string Code { get; set; }
    public string Title { get; set; }
}

public class Qualification {
    public int Id { get; set; }               
    [Required]
    public int ProfessionType { get; set; }
    [Required]
    public string ProfessionCode { get; set; }                
    [Required]
    public virtual Profession Profession { get; set; }
}

public class License : Qualification {
    public string Number { get; set; }  
}

public class Certificate : Qualification {
    public string IssuerName { get; set; }
}

class Context : DbContext {
    public DbSet<Qualification> Qualifications { get; set; }
    public DbSet<Profession> Professions { get; set; }

    protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder) {
        modelBuilder.Entity<Qualification>()
            .HasRequired<Profession>(q => q.Profession)
            .HasConstraint((q, p) => q.ProfessionCode == p.Code 
                                     && q.ProfessionType == p.Type);

        modelBuilder.Entity<Qualification>().MapHierarchy()
            .Case<Qualification>(q => new {
                q.ProfessionCode,
                q.ProfessionType,
                q.Id,                    
                Type = 0
            }).Case<License>(q => new {
                q.Number,
                Type = 1
            }).Case<Certificate>(q => new {
                q.IssuerName,
                Type = 2
            }).ToTable("Qualifications");
    }
}

但是，正如您所知，ProfessionType 在 Qualification 中是多余的，并且没有办法解决它，因为就像您说的那样，EF 不允许您将鉴别器重用为 FK，因为这条规则是有意义的：

专业是许可类型（类型 1）或认证类型（类型 2）

是 EF 不知道的，因此它必须阻止它以保护层次结构。

就个人而言，我会按如下方式设计对象模型，我认为这样更清晰，更少冗余：

public class Profession {
    public int ProfessionId { get; set; }        
    public int Type { get; set; }
    public string Code { get; set; }
    public string Title { get; set; }
}

public class Qualification {
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public int ProfessionId { get; set; }                
    [Required]
    public virtual Profession Profession { get; set; }
}

public class License : Qualification {
    public string Number { get; set; }  
}

public class Certificate : Qualification {
    public string IssuerName { get; set; }
}

class Context : DbContext {
    public DbSet<Qualification> Qualifications { get; set; }
    public DbSet<Profession> Professions { get; set; }

    protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder) {
        modelBuilder.Entity<Qualification>()
            .HasRequired<Profession>(q => q.Profession)
            .HasConstraint((q, p) => q.ProfessionId == p.ProfessionId);

        modelBuilder.Entity<Qualification>().MapHierarchy()
            .Case<Qualification>(q => new {
                q.ProfessionId,                   
                q.Id,                    
                Type = 0
            })
            .Case<License>(q => new {
                q.Number,
                Type = 1
            })
            .Case<Certificate>(q => new {
                q.IssuerName,
                Type = 2
            })
            .ToTable("Qualifications");
    }
}

避免 DRY 的另一种方法是将层次结构转换为 TPT 而不是 TPH：

public class Profession {
    [Key]
    [DataMember(Order = 0)]
    public int Type { get; set; }
    [Key]
    [DataMember(Order = 1)]
    public string Code { get; set; }
    public string Title { get; set; }
}

public class Qualification {
    public int Id { get; set; }
    [Required]
    public int ProfessionType { get; set; }
    [Required]
    public string ProfessionCode { get; set; }
    [Required]
    public virtual Profession Profession { get; set; }
}

public class License : Qualification {
    public string Number { get; set; }
}

public class Certificate : Qualification {
    public string IssuerName { get; set; }
}

class Context : DbContext 
{
    public DbSet<Qualification> Qualifications { get; set; }
    public DbSet<Profession> Professions { get; set; }

    protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder) {
        modelBuilder.Entity<Qualification>()
            .HasRequired<Profession>(q => q.Profession)
            .HasConstraint((q, p) => q.ProfessionCode == p.Code
                                     && q.ProfessionType == p.Type);

        modelBuilder.Entity<Qualification>().MapHierarchy(q => new 
        {
            q.Id,
            q.ProfessionCode,
            q.ProfessionType,
        })
        .ToTable("Qualifications");

        modelBuilder.Entity<License>().MapHierarchy(l => new 
        {
            l.Id,
            l.Number
        })
        .ToTable("Licenses");

        modelBuilder.Entity<Certificate>().MapHierarchy(c => new 
        {
            c.Id,
            c.IssuerName
        })
        .ToTable("Certificates");
    }
}
