I'm writing a simple student scores manager for practicing programming on PyQt (I don't want to use terrible Visual Basic anymore). But I had a big problem on choose data models.
I found QSqlTableModel first, it is a great model with auto-updating. The trouble is, I need to use a lot of SQL (JOIN, WHERE) to select data from database. QSqlTableModel has select() and filter() only.
Then I found QSqlQueryModel, but it is read only. So I rewrite its setData() method. So it is read-write now. Unfortunately, QSqlQueryModel less usable features than QSqlTableModel.
As you see, if I can using SQL with QSqlTableModel, I can resolve all my problems.
So...?
QSqlTableModel has the setQuery method, which you can use to set a custom query, something like:
model = QSqlTableModel()
query = QSqlQuery(your_query)
model.setQuery(query)
However, the Qt documentation states:
This function simply calls QSqlQueryModel::setQuery(query). You should normally not call it on a QSqlTableModel. Instead, use setTable(), setSort(), setFilter(), etc., to set up the query.

I am trying to write some basic MongoDB custom queries in Kotlin.
I've seen nearly everywhere that people use a method addCriteria:
val query: Query = Query()
query.addCriteria(Criteria.where("field1").exists(true)))
But it seems there is no method addCriteria in Query which I use: org.springframework.data.mongodb.repository.Query
I am very confused. Cannot find any explanations on how to write custom MongoDB queries in Kotlin with Spring Data except using this method.
So, I was very close to the problem's solution. I really used wrong Query, despite it's path looks really logical. I needed this one: org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.query.Query.
I used org.springframework.data.mongodb.repository.Query, which is Query annotation, not the class
I've a simple class like this:
Public Class CalculationParameter{
public Long TariffId{get;set;}
}
In a workflow activity, I've an Assign like this:
(From tariffDetail In db.Context.TariffDetails
Where tariffDetial.TariffId = calculationParameter.TariffId).FirstOrDefault()
Dto is passed to Activity as an Input Argument.
It raise following error and I'm wondering how to assign Id. Any Idea?
LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method 'Int64
GetValue[Int64](System.Activities.LocationReference)' method, and this
method cannot be translated into a store expression.
How can I assign the calculationParameter.TariffId to tariffDetial.TariffId?!
UPDATE:
Screen shot attached shows that how I'm trying to assign calculationParameter.TariffId to tariffDetail.TariffId (car.Id = Dto.Id) and the query result should assign to CurrentTrafficDetail object.
Here's your problem. I don't know if there is a solution to it.
As you said in a (now deleted, unfortunately necessitating that I answer) comment, the exception you're getting is
LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method Int64 GetValue[Int64](System.Activities.LocationReference) method, and this method cannot be translated into a store expression.
in your Linq query, calculationParameter is a Variable defined on the workflow. That Variable is actually an instance that extends the type System.Activities.LocationReference and NOT CalculationParameter.
Normally, when the workflow executes, the LocationReference holds all the information it needs to find the value which is assigned to it. That value isn't retrieved until the last possible moment. At runtime, the process of retrieval (getting the executing context, getting the value, converting it to the expected type) is managed by the workflow.
However, when you introduce Linq into the mix, we have the issue you are experiencing. As you may or may not know, your expression gets compiled into the extension method version of the same.
(From tariffDetail In db.Context.TariffDetails
Where tariffDetial.TariffId = calculationParameter.TariffId)
.FirstOrDefault()
is compiled to
db.Context.TariffDetails
.Where(x => x.TariffId = calculationParameter.TariffId)
.FirstOrDefault();
When this executes, L2E doesn't actually execute this code. It gets interpreted and converted into a SQL query which is executed against the database.
As the interpreter isn't omniscient, there are a well defined set of limitations on what methods you can use in a L2S query.
Unfortunately for you, getting the current value of a LocationReference is not one of them.
TL:DR You cannot do this.
As for workarounds, the only thing I think you can do is create a series of extension methods on your data context type or add methods to your CalculationParameter class that you can call from within the Expression Editor. You can create your Linq to Entities queries within these methods, as all types will already have been dereferenced by the workflow runtime, which means you won't have to worry about the L2E interpreter choking on LocationReferences.
*Edit: A workaround can be found here (thanks to Slauma who mentioned this in a comment on the question)
One example of using the DLR in C# is as follows:
dynamic dyn = new MyObject();
dyn.MyMethod(); //resolved at runtime
what would be the equivalent in F#?
Thanks.
The ? operator has similar expressive power to the dynamic keyword in C# (but it can be only used for reading of properties, method invocation and setting of properties).
There is no built-in implementation that would allow you to dynamically use properties or methods of a .NET class (via Reflection or DLR), but there are some fairly solid implementations from the community. This has been discussed in another SO question before.
There are also implementations of ? that allow you access some common data sources such as SQL databases. For example, this MSDN article includes a definition that allows you to write db?Query?Foo(1) to call a stored procedure named Foo.
For various other types (such as finding an element in XAML or accessing elements or attributes in XML document), the definition of ? is quite easy to write.
On the flip side, if you're trying to expose dynamic behavior to C# from F#, you can use DynamicAttribute[MSDN]. For example, declaring a dynamic property might look like
type HasDynamicProperty() =
[<Dynamic([|true|])>]
member this.DynamicObject : obj = ...
which is used from C# like
var hdp = new HasDynamicProperty();
dynamic dynObj = hdp.DynamicObject;
There's a package called FSharp.Interop.Dynamic and that will make it possible to do a call to a dynamic object using the ? operator.
F# has the ? operator which you use like so:
myVariable?SomePropertyThatIsNotDeclared
There is no dynamic keyword equivalent. Take a look at this article for how to use it https://weblogs.asp.net/podwysocki/using-and-abusing-the-f-dynamic-lookup-operator
I've seen this opportunity reported at least half a dozen times with about as many responses.
My problem is, I've got a MySQL database function defined, we'll call it "my_func(int val) returns int", which works fine if I test directly on the database.
I've also gotten it to work with a direct SQL passthrough my repository implementation, which is okay, but I'd rather route it through Hql, for some god-awful reason...
So... I've got a MySQL5Dialect setup to register the function and I'm having some difficulty parsing through the expected conventions.
My understanding is that I need to prefix the function name with "dbo." at some point during the function registration?
Something like this,
//...
RegisterFunction("my_func", new SQLFunctionTemplate(NHibernateUtil.Int32, "my_func(?1)"));
//...
And then through my repository,
var value = repository.FindByHQL<int>("select my_func(2)").Single();
Where FindByHQL returns an IList.
Any thoughts why this wouldn't work.
I'm running the latest WAMP (2.1e I think).
Enough info? Let me know if I can provide any further details.
Thanks,
Michael
select my_func(2)
is not valid HQL, regardless of whether the function is registered or not.
You can use SQL instead if that's your use case.
Post full exception with stack trace if it's not and this was just a simplified example.
Using VB.net, the following snippet gives the error below.
Dim _account = Account.Find(Function(x As Account) x.AccountName = txtFilterAccountName.Text)
or similarly if I do
.SingleOrDefault (Function(x As Account) x.AccountName = txtFilterAccountName.Text)
will both give the error "The method 'CompareString' is not supported". If I make the same call searching for an integer (ID field) it works fine.
.SingleOrDefault (Function(x As Account) x.Id = 12)
So integer matching is fine but strings don't work Is this a problem with the VB.net templates?
No this is not a problem with Vb.Net templates.
The problem is that you are not using a normal LINQ provider. Based on your tag (subsonic) I'm guessing you're using a LINQ to SQL query.
The problem is that under the hood, this is trying to turn your code into an expression tree which is then translated into an SQL like query. Your project settings are turning your string comparison into a call in the VB runtime. Specifically, Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.Operators.CompareString.
The LINQ2SQL generater in question or VB compiler (can't remember where this check is done off the top of my head) does not understand how to translate this to an equivalent bit of SQL. Hence it generates an error. You need to use a string comparison function which is supported by LINQ2SQL.
EDIT Update
It looks like the CompareString operator should be supported in the Linq2SQL case. Does subsonic have a different provider which does not support this translation?

The problem is with SubSonic3's SQL generator and the expression tree generated from VB.NET.
VB.NET generates a different expression tree as noted by JaredPar and SubSonic3 doesn't account for it - see Issue 66.
I have implemented the fix as described but it has yet to merge into the main branch of SubSonic3.
BlackMael's fix has been committed:
http://github.com/subsonic/SubSonic-3.0/commit/d25c8a730a9971656e6d3c3d17ce9ca393655f50
The fix solved my issue which was similar to John Granade's above.
Thanks to all involved.
