Hvordan kan jeg angive et indekstip i Entity Framework?

Løsningen er enkel. Lad os tilføje en interceptor !!!

    public class HintInterceptor : DbCommandInterceptor
{
    private static readonly Regex _tableAliasRegex = new Regex(@"(?<tableAlias>AS \[Extent\d+\](?! WITH \(*HINT*\)))", RegexOptions.Multiline | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);

    [ThreadStatic] public static string HintValue;

    public override void ScalarExecuting(DbCommand command, DbCommandInterceptionContext<object> interceptionContext)
    {
        if (!String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(HintValue))
        {
            command.CommandText = _tableAliasRegex.Replace(command.CommandText, "${tableAlias} WITH (*HINT*)");
            command.CommandText = command.CommandText.Replace("*HINT*", HintValue);
        }

        HintValue = String.Empty;
    }

    public override void ReaderExecuting(DbCommand command, DbCommandInterceptionContext<DbDataReader> interceptionContext)
    {
        if (!String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(HintValue))
        {
            command.CommandText = _tableAliasRegex.Replace(command.CommandText, "${tableAlias} WITH (*HINT*)");
            command.CommandText = command.CommandText.Replace("*HINT*", HintValue);
        }

        HintValue = String.Empty;
    }
}

Regex kunne være bedre, jeg ved det. Lad os registrere vores Interceptor i Config-klassen

public class PbsContextConfig : DbConfiguration
{
    public PbsContextConfig()
    {
        this.AddInterceptor(new HintInterceptor());
    }
}

Lad os lave en god tip-udvidelse til DbSet

public static class HintExtension
{
    public static DbSet<T> WithHint<T>(this DbSet<T> set, string hint) where T : class
    {
        HintInterceptor.HintValue = hint;
        return set;
    }
}

Hvordan bruger man ?

context.Persons.WithHint("INDEX(XI_DOWNTIME_LOCK)").Where( x => x.ID == ....

Ændringer er velkomne!
