Hi,
I recently migrated my project from .NET Core 3.1 to .NET 6.0. In .NET Core 3.1 it was working perfectly but after migration i have one error in the LINQ query. Actually i have one Entity model "Employee". In the Employee entity model there is one filed which is unmapped into database and it is only getter. Following is my Employee entity model:
public class Employee {
public int Id {get; set;}
public string EmployeeReference {get; set;}
public string EmployeeFullName {get; set;}
public string EmployeePhoneNumber {get; set;}
[NotMapped]
public bool IsHQ
{
get
{
return this is HQEmployee; // HQ means Head Quearter
}
}
}
My project is based on Generic Repository pattern. Following is the Interface of my Generic Repository:
public interface IRepository
{
IQuerable All {get;}
T Find(int id);
IQuerable GetIncluding(params Expression>[] includesproperties);
}
The folowing Interface is inherited from IRepository Interface:
public interface IEmployeeRepository : IRepository
{
}
Following is the method where i want to retrieve those Employees who belongs to Head Quearters:
public class GetEmployeesListQuery : IGetEmployeesListQuery
{
private readonly IEmployeeRepository _employeeRepository;
public GetEmployeesListQuery(IEmployeeRepository employeeRepository)
{
_employeeRepository = employeeRepository;
}
public List GetEmployeeAuthoritiesList()
{
var employeeList = new List();
var allEmployees = _employeeRepository.GetIncluding(e => e.KBZPosition, e => e.SourceOrganization, e => e (HQEmployee).Rank).Where(e => e.IsHQ);
}
}
I am getting error in the Where Clause of the LINQ Query becuase i am checking the unmapped field "IsHQ". The error says that the field "IsHQ" is not mapped into database. Following is the full description of the error:
The LINQ Expression could not be translated, either rewrite the query in a form that can be translated or switch to client evaluation explicitly by inserting a call to AsEnumerable.
I have searched on google and find this question in the net but i did not find a solution for my issue. Please give me suggestion because it was working in .NET Core 3.1 and the project is already in production.

The error you're encountering occurs because the LINQ provider in Entity Framework Core is unable to translate the
IsHQproperty into a SQL query since it's marked with the[NotMapped]attribute. The error message suggests rewriting the query or explicitly invoking client-side evaluation usingAsEnumerable().Adalat KhanPosted May 23, 2023, 10:03 AM
