LINQ语言集成查询是微软用于抗衡竞争对手,改进现有开发模式下面向数据库操作问题的一个种全新体系架构。它的出现,解决了面向对象开发中由数据库操作引起的先天性的瓶颈,使得面向对象和数据库完美结合,程序员不再受限于复杂的SQL脚本,而可以一种近乎完美的方式来搭建自己的面向对象型软件系统,这种方式就是将数据完全对象化,将SQL语句封装到底层,由framework来完成,程序员只需面向数据库对象来编程,从另一种意义上来说,是把数据也程序化了。
LINQ的这种开发模式也改变了系统架构的搭建方式,在以往的系统中,数据访问层DAL要访问数据字段,业务逻辑层BLL要得到数据都需要通过数据模型层Model来处理,而LINQ和VS2008为我们带来了一种全新的自动化方式生成数据模型层,这就是dbml(Database Mark Language。数据库描述语言,是一种xml格式的文档,用来描述数据库),有了它我们就不需要去找那些第三方的代码生成工具,只需要把数据表拖拽到设计器中,如下图所示,DONET便为我们做好了一切。
完成拖拽操作后,VS会自动生成一个数据模型层的dbml文件和相关的类文件。这样我们省去了数据模型层的搭建,系统的架构也就有所不同,以下用一个例子简单的讲一下该架构模型。
为了完成这个架构,我们首先要创建一个WEB APPLICATION项目,在新建项目窗口选择“ASP.NET WEB应用程序”,为它取一个名字,并确定。
接下来,在解决方案资源管理器中再添加一个类库项目,取名为DAL,如下图:
再使用同样的方法在解决方案资源管理器中添加一个类库项目,取名为BLL,这样我们的基础架构搭建完成,此时我们的解决方案资源管理器应该是如下结构。
此时,我们先从DAL项目入手,在DAL项目中,添加一个LINQ TO SQL类,取名为Northwind(为了方便起见,此项目使用SQL SERVER2005中的Northwind示例数据库),双击新建立的Northwind.dbml文件,然后打开“服务器资源管理器”,建立与数据的连接,并从Northwind数据库中,将Employees表拖拽到Northwind.dbml文件的可视化设计器中。
初始的Northwind.dbml文件代码如下:

从中可以看到,这里本质上就是以前的数据模型层,将数据整个对象化了,为了层之间的访问方便,我们将改类的命名空间改为Auto.DAL,并将NorthwindDataContent类的第一个构造函数代码修改如下,这样修改主要是为了统一数据库连接字符串的位置,因为dbml文件在生成后会附带生成一个app.config文件,用来存放连接字符串,而我们要把连接字符串统一放到web.config中。(要访问web.config文件,需要为DAL项目添加对System.Configuration的应用)
