安装包中(1.2.9)的内容
Build\
Nant编译文件，强名密钥文件，NDoc文档生成文件等
Configuration\
App.config和Gentle.Config配置文件，这两个文件差不多，只是app.config多了个log4net配置节
App.config配置文件要根据情况改成web.config
Gentle.Config只要放到与项目编译生成程序集相同的目录下就行了，组件自己会去搜寻这个配置文件
只要使用一个就可以
Contributions\
MyGeneration和CodeSmith的代码生成模板
Documentation\
帮助文档。
Gentle API.chm：GentleAPI介绍文档。估计也是用工具自动生成的。
GentleDocumentation.pdf：顺序混乱使用文档，最好根据左侧的目录树来导航。该文件中的UserGuide部分要好好看看
Output\
dll文件。里面存放的是已经编译的好的程序集(Release版），可以直接拷出来使用

Gentle 2.*开发计划
Morten Mertner对gentle的发展方向非常明确，并提出了野心勃勃的2.x版本开发计划（http://www.mertner.com/confluence/display/gentle/open+tasks），着重于提高gentle的使用便利性。大致浏览了一下，以下功能我颇感兴趣：
扩展日志模块，允许使用自定义的日志记录器
查询方面的增强
·所有查询对象和查询结果都可序列化
·添加分页支持
·增强对关系查询（joins）的支持
·添加lazy load功能
·添加创建/删除表的支持
·添加OPath功能（用于对象查询，类似ibastic的HQL）
VisualStudio插件
·可查找Gentle类
·创建gentle包装代码
·直接在VS中创建相应的数据库表
·扩展类设计器，允许使用Gentle attribute来修饰类
------------------------------------------------------------
使用
------------------------------------------------------------
1.加入Gentle.Net程序集引用
Gentle.Common.dll
Gentle.Framework.dll
Gentle.Provider.*.dll
2.修改gentle配置文件
（1）修改Gentle.config文件中的<DefaultProvider>和<Providers>部分
（2）把Gentle.Config拷贝到项目内
·项目根目录下
·项目子目录config下
·任意位置。需要在web.config中指明gentle配置文件路径<add key="GentleConfigFolder" value="./Gentle2.config"/>
3.创建数据库表和视图
4.使用代码工具CodeSmith或MyGeneration等生成Gentle类文件
5.使用这些类。这些类提供了基本的选取和修改的功能，可手动修改该文件以满足自定义功能
------------------------------------------------------------
MyGeneration生成的gentle类代码示例
------------------------------------------------------------
以留言簿数据表的gentle类包装为例：
（1）留言簿的数据字典
id 自增数字字段
name 字符串
email 字符串
web 字符串
ip 字符串
title 字符串
content 字符串
createDate 时间日期
（2）MyGeneration生成的包装类。代码非常紧凑干练，排版风格我也很喜欢:>。

public class GuestBook : Persistent

Key key = new Key(typeof(GuestBook), true, "id", id);
return Broker.RetrieveInstance(typeof(GuestBook), key) as GuestBook;
}
public static GuestBook ComplexRetrieve(int id)

throw new NotImplementedException("Gentle.NET Business Entity script: Generation of complex retrieve function (multiple primary keys) is not implemented yet.");

{
if (IsChanged || !IsPersisted)
{
base.Persist();
isChanged = false;
}
}
public override void Remove()
{
base.Remove();
}
#endregion
}
（3）如上，该类实现了基本的CRUD操作
增：GuestBook entity = new GuestBook(...); entity.Persist();
查：GuestBook entity = GuestBook.Retrieve(id); 或 IList list = GuestBook.RetrieveAll();
改：GuestBook entity = GuestBook.Retrieve(id); ...; entity.Persist();
删：GuestBook.Retrieve(id).Remove;
（4）扩展该类
·默认的删除函数效率比较低下，建议创建静态函数
public static void Remove(int id)
{
Key key = new Key(typeof(GuestBook), true, "id", id);
Broker.Remove(typeof(GuestBook), key);
}
调用时直接用GuestBook.Remove(id)就好了
·建议添加PrePersist()和PreRemove()虚函数，方便业务层的扩展，如文件操作，关联数据表删除操作等
·可参考文章gentle.net bugs fixing
------------------------------------------------------------
例程
------------------------------------------------------------
【新建】
直接调用Broker.Insert()函数
Category category = new Category();
Gentle.Framework.Broker.Insert(category);
若Category继承至Persistent类，则直接调用Persist()函数来保存
Category category = new Category(....);
category.Persist();
【删除】
// e.g. Product.Retrieve(id).Remove();
public void Remove()
{
base.Remove();
}
// e.g. Product.Remove(id);
public static void Remove(int id)
{
Key key = new Key(typeof(Product), true, "id", id);
Broker.Remove(typeof(Product), key);
}
【查询】
获取单条记录
// e.g. Category entity = Category.Retrieve(1);
public static Category Retrieve(int id)
{
Key key = new Key(typeof(Category), true, "CategoryID", id);
return Broker.Retrieve(typeof(Category), key) as Category;
}
获取记录集
无参数限制
static public IList ListAll()
{
return Broker.RetrieveList( typeof(User) );
}
根据一个参数获取记录集
static public IList ListTeamMembers(int teamId)
{
Key key = new Key(typeof(Act), true, "teamId", teamId);
return Broker.RetrieveList(typeof(Member), key);
}
根据两个参数获取记录集
static public IList ListTeamMemberAct(int teamId, int memberId)
{
Key key = new Key(typeof(Act), true, "teamId", teamId, "memberId", memberId);
return Broker.RetrieveList(typeof(Act), key);
}
多个参数获取记录集
static public IList ListTeamMemberAct(int teamId, int memberId, int otherId)
{
Key key = new Key(typeof(Act), true, "teamId", teamId, "memberId", memberId);
key.Add("otherId", otherId);
return Broker.RetrieveList(typeof(Act), key);
}
SqlBuilder定制查询（模糊查询，过滤查询）
// 流程：SqlBuilder-->SqlStatement-->SqlResult-->DataView | TypedArrayList
// 注：particalName必须使用通配符，如"Kev%"
static public IList ListByNameStartsWith( string partialName )
{
SqlBuilder sb = new SqlBuilder(StatementType.Select, typeof(User));
sb.AddConstraint(Operator.Like, "Name", partialName);
sb.AddConstraint("substr(coalmineid,4,3)='101'");
sb.AddConstraint("rownum=1");
sb.AddOrderByField("id");
SqlStatement stmt = sb.GetStatement(true);
SqlResult sr = Broker.Execute(stmt);
return ObjectFactory.GetCollection(typeof(User), sr);
//return ObjectView.GetDataView(sr);
}
Criteria语法？
Criteria criteria = session.createCriteria(TUser.class);
criteria.add(Expression.eq("groupId", new Integer(2)));
返回值类型
Object
return Broker.Retrieve(typeof(Category), key) as Category;
SqlResult
return Broker.Execute(sql);
return Broker.Execute(sqlStatement);
IList（TypeArrayList）
return Broker.RetrieveList( typeof(User) );
return Broker.RetrieveList( typeof(User), key );
TypedArrayList customerList = new TypedArrayList( typeof(Customer) );
return Broker.RetrieveList( typeof(Customer), customerList );
return ObjectFactory.GetCollection(typeof(User), sqlResult);
DataView
return ObjectView.GetDataView(sqlResult);
GentleList？
排序
SqlBuilder排序
SqlBuilder sb = new SqlBuilder(StatementType.Select, typeof(User));
sb.AddConstraint(Operator.Like, "Name", partialName);
sb.AddOrderByField("id");
对TypedArrayList对象排序？
直接写SQL的orderby排序？
关联的实现方案
public class User
{
// 获取与account相关联的account对象列表
public IList Accounts
{
get{ return RetrieveList( typeof(Account), "Id" ); }
}
}
【更新】
1.最简单的更新
User user = User.Retrieve(id);
user.Name = "Kevin";
user.Persist();
2.如果想要改变数据的主键,就没有那么方便了,只能是先删除-然后改变状态-然后改变主键-最后再插入保存
private void btnUpdateKey_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
try
{
UT_BM_COALMINE cm=UT_BM_COALMINE.Retrieve("1201010001");
cm.Remove();
cm.IsPersisted=false;
cm.COALMINEID="120101000a";
cm.Persist();
}
catch(GentleException ex)
{
if(ex.Error==Gentle.Common.Error.UnexpectedRowCount)
this.ShowMessage("要更新的数据并不存在!"+ex.Error.ToString ());
else
throw;
}
}
【直接写sql】
private SqlResult ExecuteSql(string sql)
{
return Broker.Execute(sql);
}
private DataView ExecuteSql(string sql)
{
SqlResulte sr = Broker.Execute(sql);
return ObjectView.GetDataView(sr);
}
private IList FindUsers(string filter)
{
SqlResult sr = Broker.Execute("Select * from User where " + filter);
return ObjectFactory.GetCollection(typeof(User), sr);
}
【调用存储过程: 有点繁杂】
// GentleSqlFactory
GentleSqlFactory sqlFact = Broker.GetSqlFactory();
// IDbCommand & IDataParameter
IDbCommand cmd = sqlFact.GetCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
IDataParameter param = cmd.CreateParameter();
param.ParameterName = sqlFact.GetParameterPrefix() + "CustomerId" + sqlFact.GetParameterSuffix();
param.Value = "ALFKI";
cmd.Parameters.Add(param);
// SqlStatement
SqlStatement sqlStat = new SqlStatement(Gentle.Framework.StatementType.Unknown, cmd, "CustOrderHist");
// SqlResult
SqlResult sqlRes = Broker.Execute(sqlStat);
dataGrid1.DataSource = ObjectView.GetDataView(sqlRes);
【事务处理transaction】
try
{
Transaction transaction = new Transaction();
transaction.Persist( obj );
transaction.Commit();
}
catch( Exception e )
{
transaction.Rollback();
throw;
}
【xml序列化】
public static void SerializeToFile( object obj, string fileName )
{
// remove Persistent.IsPersisted attribute
XmlAttributes attrs = new XmlAttributes();
// create an XML element for IsPersisted
XmlElementAttribute attr = new XmlElementAttribute();
attr.ElementName = "IsPersisted";
attr.Type = typeof(bool);
// add the element to the collection of excluded elements
attrs.XmlElements.Add( attr );
attrs.XmlIgnore = true;
// add attribute overrides to hide IsPersisted property of Gentle's Persistent class
XmlAttributeOverrides attrOverrides = new XmlAttributeOverrides();
attrOverrides.Add( typeof(Persistent), "IsPersisted", attrs );
// serialize object
FileStream fs = new FileStream( fileName, FileMode.Create );
System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer xml =
new System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer( obj.GetType(), attrOverrides );
xml.Serialize( fs, obj );
...
}
【对象比较】
对象是否完全相同（根据hash值）
public override int GetHashCode()
{
PropertyHolder holder = this;
return holder.Id.GetHashCode() +
holder.Name.GetHashCode() +
holder.TInt.GetHashCode() +
holder.TDecimal.GetHashCode() +
holder.TDouble.GetHashCode() +
holder.TBool.GetHashCode() +
holder.TDateTime.GetHashCode() +
holder.TDateTimeNN.GetHashCode() +
// make sure space padding (added by db) is ignored
holder.TChar.TrimEnd().GetHashCode() +
holder.TNChar.TrimEnd().GetHashCode() +
holder.TVarChar.GetHashCode() +
holder.TNVarChar.GetHashCode() +
holder.TText.GetHashCode() +
holder.TNText.GetHashCode();
}
public override bool Equals( object obj )
{
if( obj.GetType() != this.GetType() )
return false;
PropertyHolder holder1 = (PropertyHolder) obj;
PropertyHolder holder2 = this;
return holder1.GetHashCode() == holder2.GetHashCode()
&& holder2.GetHashCode() == holder1.GetHashCode();
}
------------------------------------------------------------
【常用的Gentle类】
关于SqlStatement
存储Sql语句及相关环境变量
public SqlStatement( StatementType stmtType, IDbCommand cmd, string sql )
public SqlStatement(
PersistenceBroker broker,
StatementType stmtType, IDbCommand cmd, string sql,
Type type, int rowLimit, int rowOffset )
public SqlResult Previous()
public SqlResult Next()
public SqlResult Page( int page )
关于SqlBuilder
用于构造适合特定数据库类型的SQL语句.可构造的SQL语句类型有
public enum StatementType
{
Unknown, //
Select, // 调用 ExecuteReader()
Count, // 调用 ExecuteScalar()
Identity, // 调用 ExecuteScalar()
Insert, // 调用 ExecuteScalar() 或 ExecuteNonQuery()
Update, // 调用 ExecuteNonQuery()
Delete, // 调用 ExecuteNonQuery()
SoftDelete // 调用 ExecuteNonQuery()
}
添加列（构造select语句）
void AddFields( Type type ); // 添加所有拥有TableColumn特性的成员
void AddKeyFields( Type type, bool isParameter ); // 添加所有拥有TableColumn和PrimaryKey特性的成员
添加约束（用于构造where子句）
sb.AddConstraint(Operator.Like, "Name", partialName);
sb.AddConstraint("substr(coalmineid,4,3)='101'");
sb.AddConstraint("rownum=1");
public enum Operator
{
Equals,
NotEquals,
Like,
NotLike,
LessThan,
LessThanOrEquals,
GreaterThan,
GreaterThanOrEquals,
In,
NotIn
} ;
添加排序（order by 子句）
void AddOrderByField( bool isAscending, string fieldName );
void AddOrderByField( string orderClause );
记录偏移
void SetRowLimit( int rowLimit )
void SetRowOffset( int rowOffset )
构造SQL语句的基本原理（以SQLServer的Select语句构造为例）：
sql = Format( fmtSelect, GetTopLimit(), AsCommaList( quotedFields ),
GetTableName( tableName ), GetConstraints(), GetOrderBy(), "", "" );
关于SqlResult
/// The SqlResult class serves as a multi-purpose encapsulation of query results,
/// including access to error codes and information on sql errors, query info
/// (rows affected/returned), and similar information.
公共属性
public int ErrorCode
public Exception Error
public string ErrorMessage
public int RowsContained
public int RowsAffected
public int LastRowId
public int Count
public string[] ColumnNames
public int GetColumnIndex( string columnName )
public SqlStatement Statement
数据访问
public ArrayList Rows
public object[] this[ int rowIndex ]
public object this[ int rowIndex, int columnIndex ]
public object this[ int rowIndex, string column ]
分页处理
public SqlResult Previous()
public SqlResult Next()
public SqlResult Page( int page )
辅助函数
public string GetString( int rowIndex, string column )
public bool GetBoolean( int rowIndex, string column )
public DateTime GetDateTime( int rowIndex, string column )
public int GetInt( int rowIndex, string column )
public long GetLong( int rowIndex, string column )
public double GetDouble( int rowIndex, string column )
public decimal GetDecimal( int rowIndex, string column )
public object GetObject( int rowIndex, string column )
------------------------------------------------------------
火花
------------------------------------------------------------
对于非自增且非空字段，gentle自动代码工具会自动生成倚赖该字段的构造函数，如
public Account(string account)
{
isChanged = true;
id = 0;
this.account = account;
}
如何实现join功能
gentle.net不支持join,但有替代方法
·使用视图
·使用GentleList
·手工写SQL: SqlBuilder, SqlStatement
·使用QueryDom(http://sourceforge.net/projects/qdom/)
gentle.net 1.3中将整合进更多改进的查询功能
如何提升ASP.NET使用gentle的性能
使用缓存，更改UniqueScope设置（如WebSession）
尽量关闭Session?
