c# - Entity Framework GroupBy 使用 mySQL 取最老的

Question

我有一个巨大的项目列表，需要按一个属性对它们进行分组。然后应选择每个组中年龄最大的。

简化示例:选择每个 FirstName 中最早的用户。

using (ED.NWEntities ctx = new ED.NWEntities())
{
    IQueryable<ED.User> Result = ctx.User.GroupBy(x => x.FirstName)
                                    .Select(y => y.OrderBy(z => z.BirthDate)
                                    .FirstOrDefault())
                                    .AsQueryable();
}

类用户:

public partial class User
{
    public int UserID { get; set; }
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
    public string LastName { get; set; }
    public Nullable<System.DateTime> BirthDate { get; set; }
}

我想知道为什么这条语句花了这么长时间，直到我在 Result 处设置断点并查看生成的 SQL 语句:

{SELECT
`Apply1`.`UserID`, 
`Apply1`.`FIRSTNAME1` AS `FirstName`, 
`Apply1`.`LastName`, 
`Apply1`.`BirthDate`
FROM (SELECT
`Distinct1`.`FirstName`, 
(SELECT
`Project2`.`UserID`
FROM `User` AS `Project2`
 WHERE (`Distinct1`.`FirstName` = `Project2`.`FirstName`) OR ((`Distinct1`.`FirstName` IS  NULL) AND (`Project2`.`FirstName` IS  NULL))
 ORDER BY 
`Project2`.`BirthDate` ASC LIMIT 1) AS `UserID`, 
(SELECT
`Project2`.`FirstName`
FROM `User` AS `Project2`
 WHERE (`Distinct1`.`FirstName` = `Project2`.`FirstName`) OR ((`Distinct1`.`FirstName` IS  NULL) AND (`Project2`.`FirstName` IS  NULL))
 ORDER BY 
`Project2`.`BirthDate` ASC LIMIT 1) AS `FIRSTNAME1`, 
(SELECT
`Project2`.`LastName`
FROM `User` AS `Project2`
 WHERE (`Distinct1`.`FirstName` = `Project2`.`FirstName`) OR ((`Distinct1`.`FirstName` IS  NULL) AND (`Project2`.`FirstName` IS  NULL))
 ORDER BY 
`Project2`.`BirthDate` ASC LIMIT 1) AS `LastName`, 
(SELECT
`Project2`.`BirthDate`
FROM `User` AS `Project2`
 WHERE (`Distinct1`.`FirstName` = `Project2`.`FirstName`) OR ((`Distinct1`.`FirstName` IS  NULL) AND (`Project2`.`FirstName` IS  NULL))
 ORDER BY 
`Project2`.`BirthDate` ASC LIMIT 1) AS `BirthDate`
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT 
`Extent1`.`FirstName`
FROM `User` AS `Extent1`) AS `Distinct1`) AS `Apply1`}

问题:有没有办法更高效的解决他？子选择是昂贵的，EF 为每列生成一个。我使用 mySQL .NET 连接器版本 6.9.5.0

使用 Jon Skeet 的 answer在不同的..

public static IEnumerable<TSource> DistinctBy<TSource, TKey>
    (this IEnumerable<TSource> source, Func<TSource, TKey> keySelector)
{
    HashSet<TKey> seenKeys = new HashSet<TKey>();
    foreach (TSource element in source)
    {
        if (seenKeys.Add(keySelector(element)))
        {
            yield return element;
        }
    }
}

你可以试试:

using (ED.NWEntities ctx = new ED.NWEntities())
{
    IQueryable<ED.User> Result = ctx.User.OrderBy(y => y.BirthDate)
                                    .DistinctBy(z => z.FirstName)
                                    .AsQueryable();
}
