I have been struggling to get an old query translated to Nhibernate.
We are upgrading an old project from Nhibernate 2 to the latest version.
I am using the QueryOver syntax since Linq wasn't an option because of the complexity of the queries (advice of a colleague).
I want to query the DB (Oracle) to get some results which have to be grouped.
As result I need a grouped collection of my DTO. I also noticed that nhibernate has trouble translating to a DTO with complex properties (nested DTO's)
To fix this I found this topic. This works great but I am not a fan of the magic strings...
I will add some code snippets of how my monster query is looking at this moment.
Problem is I can't seem to figure out how to add a group by without breaking everything else. So I would want to group on a property but still have the DTO in my results. Something like:
ILookup<int,IEnumerable<NieuwePrintopdrachtenInfo>>
Any help would be welcome.
Sorry the variables and classes are in Dutch -_-
SYNUITGAANDEBRIEF uitgaandebrief = null;

var baseQuery = SessionHandler.CurrentSession.QueryOver(() => uitgaandebrief)

Yeah I know it is a mess. Now that you made it this far, you'll be happy to know we are almost there. This is the code I use to return the results (It is generic and uses the DeepTransform which I found here)
protected IEnumerable<TR> GetDeepTransformedPagedList<T, TR>(IQueryOver<T, T> query) where TR : class
{
PagingSettings.Count = query.Clone().Select(Projections.CountDistinct(PagingSettings.PropertyNameToCountOn)).FutureValue<int>().Value;
query = query.TransformUsing(new DeepTransformer<TR>());
if (PagingSettings.Enabled)
{
var pagedQuery = query.Skip(GetPagingStartRowIndex()).Take(PagingSettings.PageSize);
return pagedQuery.List<TR>();
}
return query.List<TR>();
}
EDIT
After the helpful post of Radim Köhler I found out that a group by won't help me with my problem. That's why I'll explain the real problem.
In code the previous query is build and extended with a Skip & Take for paging purpose. In my situation I get 50 results when executing the query.
These 50 results contain duplicates and need to be grouped by UitgaandeBriefId.
That's why the original developers wrote this code that is executed once the results are back from the DB.
ILookup<int, IEnumerable<NieuwePrintopdrachtenInfo>> groupedbrieven =
(from tbInfo in brieven
group tbInfo by tbInfo.UitgaandeBriefId into g
let UitgaandeBriefId = g.Key
let Group = g as IEnumerable<NieuwePrintopdrachtenInfo>
select new { UitgaandeBriefId, Group })
.ToLookup(result => result.UitgaandeBriefId, result => result.Group);
This code still works but results in getting only 32 results. This causes my pages to never contain 50 results. The original developer used server side paging instead of doing it on the DB so he never got this problem (performance wise this was a huge problem). That's why I refactored it so it would execute a lot faster, but this results in not getting exectly 50 results.
I guess I'll need to add a distinct then but I have no clue how I get this to work in NHibernate since I am used to work with EntityFramework.
In general, if we want to change our projection to be using GROUP BY, we have to change all "SELECT" parts to be either part of GROUP BY or SUM, MIN ...
We can do it with this kind of syntax
// firstly
// the original part from the question above
baseQuery.SelectList(list => list
...
.Select(() => joinedBriefBestemmeling.BinnenLand)
.WithAlias(() => nieuwePrintopdrachtInfo.BestemmelingBinnenLand)
.Select(() => joinedVerbruiksAdres.Land)
.WithAlias(() => nieuwePrintopdrachtInfo.LandVerbuiksadres)
.Select(Projections.Property(() => joinedContactpersoon.ContactpersoonId)
.As("BestemmelingContactPersoon.ContactPersoonId"))
.Select(Projections.Property(() => joinedContactpersoonType.Omschrijving)
.As("BestemmelingContactPersoon.TypeContactPersoon"))
...
// changed, to use GROUP BY
baseQuery.SelectList(list => list
...
.SelectGroup(() => joinedBriefBestemmeling.BinnenLand)
.WithAlias(() => nieuwePrintopdrachtInfo.BestemmelingBinnenLand)
.SelectGroup(() => joinedVerbruiksAdres.Land)
.WithAlias(() => nieuwePrintopdrachtInfo.LandVerbuiksadres)
.Select
(Projections.Alias
(Projections.GroupProperty
(Projections.Property(() => joinedContactpersoon.ContactpersoonId))
, "BestemmelingContactPersoon.ContactPersoonId"))
.Select
(Projections.Alias
(Projections.GroupProperty
(Projections.Property(() => joinedContactpersoonType.Omschrijving))
, "BestemmelingContactPersoon.TypeContactPersoon"))
...
So, now we have the GROUP BY (instead of just a SELECT) replacing the original code. But we can do more, we can introduce these (just a quick version) Extension methods (just a light version, really - but working)
public static class Extensions
{
public static NHibernate.Criterion.Lambda.QueryOverProjectionBuilder<T> GroupByProperty<T>(
this NHibernate.Criterion.Lambda.QueryOverProjectionBuilder<T> builder,
System.Linq.Expressions.Expression<Func<object>> propertyExpression,
System.Linq.Expressions.Expression<Func<object>> aliasExpression)
{
var alias = aliasExpression.ParseProperty();
var propertyProjection = Projections.Property(propertyExpression);
var groupProjection = Projections.GroupProperty(propertyProjection);
var withAliasProjection = Projections.Alias(groupProjection, alias);
builder.Select(withAliasProjection);
return builder;
}
public static string ParseProperty<TFunc>(this System.Linq.Expressions.Expression<TFunc> expression)
{
var body = expression.Body as System.Linq.Expressions.MemberExpression;
if (body.IsNull())
{
return null;
}
string propertyName = body.Member.Name;
ParseParentProperty(body.Expression as System.Linq.Expressions.MemberExpression, ref propertyName);
// change the alias.ReferenceName.PropertyName
// to just ReferenceName.PropertyName
var justAPropertyChain = propertyName.Substring(propertyName.IndexOf('.') + 1);
return justAPropertyChain;
}
static void ParseParentProperty(System.Linq.Expressions.MemberExpression expression, ref string propertyName)
{
if (expression.IsNull())
{
return;
}
// Parent.PropertyName
propertyName = expression.Member.Name + "." + propertyName;
ParseParentProperty(expression.Expression as System.Linq.Expressions.MemberExpression, ref propertyName);
}
}
And the above code could be made more readable and common, without any magic string
baseQuery.SelectList(list => list
...
.GroupByProperty(() => joinedBriefBestemmeling.BinnenLand)
,() => nieuwePrintopdrachtInfo.BestemmelingBinnenLand)
.GroupByProperty(() => joinedVerbruiksAdres.Land)
,() => nieuwePrintopdrachtInfo.LandVerbuiksadres)
.GroupByProperty(() => joinedContactpersoon.ContactpersoonId)
.() => nieuwePrintopdrachtInfo.BestemmelingContactPersoon.ContactPersoonId)
.GroupByProperty(() => joinedContactpersoonType.Omschrijving)
.() => nieuwePrintopdrachtInfo.BestemmelingContactPersoon.TypeContactPersoon)
...
NOTE IsNull() is also extension

I am developing an application to test execution time SQL queries using different frameworks. I have some problem to write one of the queries using Fluent nHibernate. The query should return all employees that are older than 50 years. In some page I found the DateProjections class which I attach below.
public static class DateProjections
{
private const string DateDiffFormat = "datediff({0}, ?1, ?2)";
public static IProjection DateDiff(
string datepart,
Expression<Func<object>> startDate,
Expression<Func<object>> endDate)
{
// Build the function template based on the date part.
string functionTemplate = string.Format(DateDiffFormat, datepart);
return Projections.SqlFunction(
new SQLFunctionTemplate(NHibernateUtil.Int32, functionTemplate),
NHibernateUtil.Int32,
Projections.Property(startDate),
Projections.Property(endDate));
}
}
The function to get employees is the following:
public List<EmployeeAgeViewModel> GetEmployeesOlderThan50()
{
Person personAlias = null;
EmployeeAgeViewModel result = null;
var temp = _session.QueryOver<Employee>().JoinQueryOver(x => x.Person, () => personAlias).SelectList(
list => list
.Select(x => personAlias.FirstName).WithAlias(() => result.FirstName)
.Select(x => personAlias.LastName).WithAlias(() => result.LastName)
.Select(x => x.Gender).WithAlias(() => result.Gender)
.Select(x => x.BirthDate).WithAlias(() => result.BirthDate)
.Select(x => x.HireDate).WithAlias(() => result.HireDate)
.Select(DateProjections.DateDiff("yy", () => personAlias.Employee.BirthDate, () => DateTime.Now)).WithAlias(() => result.Age)
)
.TransformUsing(Transformers.AliasToBean<EmployeeAgeViewModel>())
.List<EmployeeAgeViewModel>();
return temp.ToList();
The problem is probably the way I am passing BirthDate property and DateTime.Now to DateDiff function. In the personAlias variable the Employee property is null - maybe I should assign it somehow before - any help will be appreciated.
Instead of personAlias.Employee.BirthDate you need to use an employeeAlias.
Your code with the necessary changes looks like this:
Person personAlias = null;
Employee employeeAlias = null;
EmployeeAgeViewModel result = null;
var temp = _session.QueryOver<Employee>(() => employeeAlias)
.JoinQueryOver(x => x.Person, () => personAlias)
.SelectList(
list => list
.Select(x => personAlias.FirstName).WithAlias(() => result.FirstName)
.Select(x => personAlias.LastName).WithAlias(() => result.LastName)
.Select(x => x.Gender).WithAlias(() => result.Gender)
.Select(x => x.BirthDate).WithAlias(() => result.BirthDate)
.Select(x => x.HireDate).WithAlias(() => result.HireDate)
.Select(DateProjections.DateDiff("yy", () => employeeAlias.BirthDate, () => DateTime.Now))
.WithAlias(() => result.Age)
)
.TransformUsing(Transformers.AliasToBean<EmployeeAgeViewModel>())
.List<EmployeeAgeViewModel>();
return temp.ToList();
From time to time my web application begins throwing the following errors.
Using NHibernate 4.0.0.4000 and MySql.Data 6.8.3
Stack Trace
ERROR [(null)] - Message:could not execute query
NHibernate log
NHibernate.Util.ADOExceptionReporter WARN - System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Could not find specified column in results:
Once once of these errors occur it begins to happen frequently until the web application is restart.
It's odd that it only happens to some users and not all. Also I noticed in this particular log message the values of p4 and p5 should be swapped.
Is this an issue with the query cache?
Does anyone have some insight into why this is happening?
If it helps here is the gnarly query (but I see this error on much simpler queries as well)

Ok got the problem. Its because some of the arguement you are passing in your prepared statement is null, thats why this error. I had similar issue earlier and i solved it by checking only if it is not null add it in query filtering.
Also there is another possibility of row lock by any other query. Are you using lock in mysql query?
2nd problem seems like see the solution stated below

I am working with QueryOver in NHibernate and I want to customize one property of my projected DTO using the following syntax:
IEnumerable<PersonResponseMessage> persons =
session.QueryOver<PersonEntity>()
.SelectList(list => list
.Select(p => p.Active).WithAlias(() => dto.Active)
.Select(p => p.Alert).WithAlias(() => dto.Alert)
.Select(p => p.Comments).WithAlias(() => dto.Comments)
.Select(p => string.Format("{0}api/Person/{1}", uriHelper.Root, p.Id)).WithAlias(() => dto.DetailsUrl)
)
.TransformUsing(Transformers.AliasToBean<PersonResponseMessage>())
.List<PersonResponseMessage>();
Unfortunately NHibernate cannot do this and throws an exception saying that:
Variable P referenced from scope "" is not defined
There are in common two ways. Partially we can move that concat operation on the DB side, as documented here:
16.7. Projection Functions
In this case, we'll use the Projections.Concat:
.SelectList(list => list
.Select(p => p.Active).WithAlias(() => dto.Active)
.Select(p => p.Alert).WithAlias(() => dto.Alert)
.Select(p => p.Comments).WithAlias(() => dto.Comments)
// instead of this
//.Select(p => string.Format("{0}api/Person/{1}", uriHelper.Root, p.Id))
// .WithAlias(() => dto.DetailsUrl)
// use this
.Select(p => Projections.Concat(uriHelper.Root, Projections.Concat, p.Id))
.WithAlias(() => dto.DetailsUrl)
)
.TransformUsing(Transformers.AliasToBean<PersonResponseMessage>())
.List<PersonResponseMessage>();
But I would vote for ex-post processing on the Application tier, in C#:
.SelectList(list => list
.Select(p => p.Active).WithAlias(() => dto.Active)
.Select(p => p.Alert).WithAlias(() => dto.Alert)
.Select(p => p.Comments).WithAlias(() => dto.Comments)
// just the ID
.Select(p => p.Id).WithAlias(() => dto.Id)
)
.TransformUsing(Transformers.AliasToBean<PersonResponseMessage>())
.List<PersonResponseMessage>()
// do the concat here, once the data are transformed and in memory
.Select(result =>
{
result.DetailsUrl = string.Format("{0}api/Person/{1}", uriHelper.Root, p.Id)
return result;
});
I am trying to do a query like:
var a = session.QueryOver<Site>()
.SelectList(
x => x.Select(p => p.SiteName)
.Select(p => p.SiteId).Select(p => p.RegionLocation.City))
.List<object[]>();
but I get the error
could not resolve property: RegionLocation.City of: Entities.Site
The property exists and I can retrieve it using LINQ but QueryOver does not work. What am I doing wrong ?
As far as i remember, with QueryOver, you have to join all entities in the association in order to be able to access it's properties.
This means you ought to do something like:
(notice the .JoinQueryOver)
var a = session.QueryOver<Site>()
.JoinQueryOver(s => s.RegionLocation)
.SelectList(
x => x.Select(p => p.SiteName)
.Select(p => p.SiteId)
.Select(p => p.RegionLocation.City))
.List<object[]>();
Or maybe this will work:
RegionLocation regionLocationAlias = null;
var a = session.QueryOver<Site>()
.JoinAlias(s => s.RegionLocation, () => regionLocationAlias)
.SelectList(
x => x.Select(p => p.SiteName)
.Select(p => p.SiteId)
.Select(() => regionLocationAlias.City))
.List<object[]>();
Also you might want to have a look at https://github.com/davybrion/NHibernateWorkshop/tree/master/NHibernateWorkshop
There's lots of great examples!
Specifically for your problem, have a look at: https://github.com/davybrion/NHibernateWorkshop/blob/master/NHibernateWorkshop/Querying/QueryOver/Projecting.cs
I am using blow code for join in nhibernate, which is working fine. But i don't wants to use .List on both queries before join, i wants to use .List after join. I don't know nhibernate too much.. please provide me help that what i should make changes in below funciton to first join the data and then apply .List over it.
public IEnumerable<PGrp> GetSol()
{
_pGrpR = null;
_pGrp = null;
