I need to build a dynamic linq query with or operators. I have seen PredicateBuilder but that is in C# and my project is in VB. Basically I need to build a WHERE clause similar to this:
Where((this = 1 AND that = 2) OR (this = 1 AND that = 4) OR (this = 2 AND that = 4))
but the problem is the number will have to be determined dynamically at runtime, and added using a loop, like
for each item in myItems
query = query.OR (this = item.a AND this = item.b)

I just read this article about the Entity Framework 4 (actually version 2).Entity Framework seems to offer a huge improvement over its first release. Thus, I have never ever used EF in any project, since I think EF is not mature enough in comparison to NHibernate.NHibernate and its current contributions of FluentNHibernate and Linq for NHibernate by Ayende RahienMy feeling is that Microsoft is solely trying to gain terrain it has lost in favor of NHibernate when the 2nd version of NHibernate came out.Nevertheless, my concerns are the followings (not in particular order):Will EF4 tend to be less XML-verbose?Will EF4 be compatible with other underlying datastore than just SQL Server?What are the greatest benefits of going with EF4 instead of FluentNHibernate or NHibernate itself.
NHibernate is a great tool, I guess everyone agrees. Due to its predecessor Hibernate, we may easily find documentions and tutorials and sample applications to get acquainted with it. This is not the case for FluentNHibernate. Particularly as per the project I'm working on right now which demands that I investigate further about NHibernate and its options (FluentNHibernate for instance) in order to document the rules of usage and the best practices of NHibernat and FluentNHibernate technology. Thus, being handcuffed with VB.NET, being a C-Style developer, I can't find some syntax equivalencies in VB.NET for the examples provided, though I made I way so far
I am creating a mediaplayer / playlist creator tool that basically imports MP3 songs into playlists (grids). I'm looking to add search functionality where the user can search all open playlists (or a subset of the open playlists). A Playlist is basically a collection of AudioFiles, where an AudioFile is a class that holds the filename of the MP3 file and then exposes the tags (Title, Artist, Album, etc) in public properties.
The idea is that the user can search for a certain expression (for example "the"), and that he can then choose whether to search in the title, in the title and artist, in the title or artist, in the title, artist and/or album, etc. However, I'm having a hard time implementing this and also having it kind of dynamic.
At the moment I am simply gathering all the AudioFiles from the open playlists (or from the subset of playlists the user chooses) and then running a simple LINQ query to find those AudioFiles where the Title contains the search text. Then I display the resulting AudioFiles in a new playlist window:
[Code]....
In case the AND / OR distinguishing is too hard, I would be happy to start with just letting it default to 'OR', so that the user can check Title and Album for example. If he would then search for 'a' then all songs that contain 'a' in their title as well as all songs that contain 'a' in their album should be returned. I guess that makes it easier, but I still wouldn't know how to dynamically create the LINQ query.
if there is that much of a performance gain in running a LINQ stored procedure versus a LINQ query?
View 1 RepliesI know that LINQ queries are deferred and only executed when the query is enumerated, but I'm having trouble figuring out exactly when that happens.Certainly in a For Each loop, the query would be enumerated.What's the rule of thumb to follow? I don't want to accidentally enumerate over my query twice if it's a huge result.
For example, does System.Linq.Enumerable.First enumerate over the whole query? I ask for performance reasons. I want to pass a LINQ result set to an ASP.NET MVC view, and I also want to pass the First element separately. Enumerating over the results twice would be painful.It would be great to turn on some kind of flag that alerts me each time a LINQ query is enumerated. That way I could catch scenarios when I accidentally enumerate twice.
've got a function that takes two parameters (a delegate and an integer) and then creates a LINQ MethodCallExpression, which it uses to gets the results:
Public Delegate Function CompareTwoIntegerFunction(ByVal i1 As Integer, ByVal i2 As Integer) As Boolean

I'm struggling with getting Linq To NHibernate to work.I have referenced NHibernate, NHibernate.Linq and NHibernate.ByteCode.Castle . Also I have all other dependencies in the same folder.

I am trying to learn OOD/OOP and read on the net that I am not supposed convert SQL tables into classes. But I cannot find an explanation why not to do it or which tables to skip. So I made an web application based on the below diagram. It works perfectly well. But I do not use OO. which table should not be mapped into a class and why not. do not use LINQ or NHibernate, etc as I do not understand them. I just need to understand the OOD.

View 1 RepliesI have built a database structure that represents a category tree to help classify some of the data we have stored. The implementation is that each record in the Category table has a nullable foreign key back into the Category table to represent the parent Category of this category (one-to-many), essentially allowing for subcategories within a broader parent level. There is a CategoryMembership table that links a record in the Item table to its respective Category (many-to-many). I have created the DBML for this database, and it has a member access structure that includes the following:

I have to join two main tables, and I need to filter the results by elements in an ASP.NET web form. These filters are created on the fly so I have to use a lot of where extensions to filter the query. I want to execute the query with as optimized SQL as possible.
I am first doing a simple join between TW_Sites and TW_Investigators. Then there are two sub-tables that are involved. TW_InvestigatorToArea and TW_InvestigatorToDisease. While most of the where clauses are working fine, I have found a performance issue that won't be an issue right now, but will be an issue as the table gets bigger.
The arrays DiseaseCategories and DiseaseAreas would be the results of a CheckBoxList result.

I am getting an "ArgumentOutOfRangeException" on parameter index whenever I try to instantiate a session factory in nHibernate. The error comes from a procedure deep in the bowels of nHibernate. This is on a fresh project with a pretty simple three tier architecture. The data layer maps the nHibernate classes to simple interfaces which are implemented by the business layer.Currently there is only one interface set and mapping file being used by nHibernate. Hopefully my issue is easy to spot.
Here is the function where I build the sessionFactory.
Private Shared Function SessionFactory() As ISessionFactory
If _sessionFactory Is Nothing Then
Dim config As New NHibernate.Cfg.Configuration
config.Configure()

Edit2: When I remove the discriminator I no longer get this error. Am I not doing that right?
Edit 3: When I download the source code for nHibernate, build it on my own, link to it's debug output and run it, I get a completely different error about ProxyFactoryFactory not being configured.
I've been reading a fair bit about the performance of using LINQ rather than using a for each loop and from what I understand using a LINQ query would be a little bit slower but generally worth it for convenience and expressiveness. However I am a bit confused about how much slower it is if you were to use the results of the query in a for loop.
Let's say that I have a set called 'Locations' and a set of objects called 'Items'. Each 'item' can only belong to one 'location'. I want to link items that are under the same location to each other. If I were to do this using a normal 'For Each' loop it would be something like this:
For Each it as Item in Items
If it.Location.equals(Me.Location)
Me.LinkedItems.Add(it)
End If
Next
However if i was to use LINQ it would instead be this:
For Each it as Item in Items.Where(Function(i) i.Location.equals(Me.Location))
Me.LinkedItems.Add(it)
Next
is the second (LINQ) option going to loop once through the entire 'Items' set to complete the query, then loop through the results to add them to the list, resulting in essentially two loops, or will it do the one loop like the first (For Each) option?

does not work either: Value of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of System.Linq.IQueryable(Of String))' cannot be converted to 'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of String)'.
