LLBLGen Pro Expressions and Scalar Queries
Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009Sometimes you need to reproduce monster queries in your code for display specific data or to serve data to reports. In general I prefer to say that “I need certain set of data, so How can I fetch it” instead of “How can I write this query into LLBLGen Pro”. Anyway, sometimes we used to see the data as a result from a query, so it’s helpful to see the query that reproduces the resulset.
Today I will talk about LLBLGen Pro Expressions and how they are useful when building “kind of complex” query constructs like subqueries and make operations among them. I will use IExpression, ScalarQueryExpression and DbFunctionCall within a DynamicList as the target. The code is written in C#, LLBLGen Pro v2.6, Adapter Templaset, using AdvertureWorks DB (SQLServer 2005).
