    Namespace: SnapObjects.Data

    Assembly: SnapObjects.Data.dll

    Syntax

    Parameters

    sqlBuilder SnapObjects.Data.ISqlBuilder

    An ISqlBuilder object which represents a SQL subquery on the right of the EXISTS operator.

    Returns

    IQueryAndOrBuilder<TModel>

    Returns anIQueryAndOrBuilder<TModel> object which can be used to add more search conditions to the current WHERE clause.

    Examples

    The following code example demonstrates how to use the OrWhereExists method to add an OR EXISTS condition to the WHERE clause. In this example, the EXISTS condition specifies that the data must exist in the result set of a subquery.

    using Appeon.ApiDoc.Models.School;
    using SnapObjects.Data;
    using System;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;
    
    namespace Appeon.ApiDoc.IQueryAndOrBuilderExamples
    {
        public class OrWhereExistsExample
        {
            private SchoolContext _context;
            
            public OrWhereExistsExample(SchoolContext dataContext)
            {
                // Sets Data Context
                _context = dataContext;
            }
    
            public async Task<int> Example() 
            {
                // Get a QueryBuilder.
                var Builder = _context.SqlModelMapper.GetQueryBuilder<Department>();
                
                // Defines a subquery.
                var subsqlbuilder = new SqlQueryBuilder();
                subsqlbuilder.Select("1")
                    .From("Department")
                    .Where("departmentid", SqlBuilder.Parameter<int>("id"));
                    
                // Defines a subquery.
                var subsqlbuilder2 = new SqlQueryBuilder();
                subsqlbuilder2.Select("1")
                    .From("Department")
                    .Where("departmentid", SqlBuilder.Parameter<int>("id2"));
                    
                // Specifies the WHERE EXIST condition:
                // the data exists in the result set of the subquery.
                Builder.WhereExists(subsqlbuilder)
                       .OrWhereExists(subsqlbuilder2);
                       
                // Data with departmentID = 4 exists 
                // but data with departmentID = 6 does not exists.
                var result = (await Builder.LoadAsync(4, 6)).ToList();
                
                if (result.Count != 0) 
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("Can execute LoadAsync.");
                }
                else 
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("Cannot execute LoadAsync.");
                }
                
                return result.Count;
                
                /*This code example produces the following output:   
                 
                    Can execute LoadAsync.
                */
            }
        }
    }
