在 C# 中组合两个 lambda 表达式

Question

给定这样的类结构：

public class GrandParent
{
    public Parent Parent { get; set;}
}
public class Parent
{
    public Child Child { get; set;}
}

public class Child
{
    public string Name { get; set;}
}

以及以下方法签名：

Expression<Func<TOuter, TInner>> Combine (Expression<Func<TOuter, TMiddle>>> first, Expression<Func<TMiddle, TInner>> second);

我怎样才能实现所说的方法，以便我可以这样调用它：

Expression<Func<GrandParent, Parent>>> myFirst = gp => gp.Parent;
Expression<Func<Parent, string>> mySecond = p => p.Child.Name;

Expression<Func<GrandParent, string>> output = Combine(myFirst, mySecond);

这样输出最终为：

gp => gp.Parent.Child.Name

这可能吗？

每个 Func 的内容永远只能是 MemberAccess。我宁愿不以 output 结束嵌套函数调用。

谢谢

好的；相当长的 sn-p，但这是表达式重写器的 starter；它还不能处理一些情况（我稍后会修复它），但它适用于给定的示例和 lot 其他示例：

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Linq.Expressions;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;

public class GrandParent
{
    public Parent Parent { get; set; }
}
public class Parent
{
    public Child Child { get; set; }
    public string Method(string s) { return s + "abc"; }
}

public class Child
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

Answer 2

我假设您的目标是获得 您将获得的表达式树，如果您实际编译了“组合”lambda。构造一个简单地适当调用给定表达式树的新表达式树要容易得多，但我认为这不是您想要的。

• 提取 first 的主体，将其转换为 MemberExpression。将此称为 firstBody。
• 提取第二个主体，称之为第二个主体
• 提取first的参数。调用这个 firstParam。
• 提取秒的参数。调用这个 secondParam。
• 现在，最困难的部分。编写一个访问者模式实现，它通过 secondBody 搜索寻找 secondParam 的单一用法。 （如果您知道它只是成员访问表达式，这将容易得多，但您可以解决一般问题。）找到它后，构造一个与其父级相同类型的新表达式，用 firstBody 替换参数。在回来的路上继续重建变形的树；请记住，您需要重建的只是包含参数引用的树的“脊椎”。
• 访问者通行证的结果将是一个重写的 secondBody，没有出现 secondParam，只有出现涉及 firstParam 的表达式。
• 构造一个新的 lambda 表达式，以该主体为主体，firstParam 作为其参数。
• 大功告成！

Matt Warren 的博客可能是您阅读的好东西。他设计并实现了所有这些东西，并写了很多关于有效重写表达式树的方法。 （我只做了编译器结束的事情。）

更新：

作为 this related answer points out，在 .NET 4 中现在有一个用于表达式重写器的基类，这使得这类事情变得更加容易。

Answer 3

我不确定你所说的不是嵌套函数调用是什么意思，但这可以解决问题 - 举个例子：

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq.Expressions;

class Test    
{    
    static Expression<Func<TOuter, TInner>> Combine<TOuter, TMiddle, TInner>
        (Expression<Func<TOuter, TMiddle>> first, 
         Expression<Func<TMiddle, TInner>> second)
    {
        var parameter = Expression.Parameter(typeof(TOuter), "x");
        var firstInvoke = Expression.Invoke(first, new[] { parameter });
        var secondInvoke = Expression.Invoke(second, new[] { firstInvoke} );

        return Expression.Lambda<Func<TOuter, TInner>>(secondInvoke, parameter);
    }

    static void Main()
    {
        Expression<Func<int, string>> first = x => (x + 1).ToString();
        Expression<Func<string, StringReader>> second = y => new StringReader(y);

        Expression<Func<int, StringReader>> output = Combine(first, second);
        Func<int, StringReader> compiled = output.Compile();
        var reader = compiled(10);
        Console.WriteLine(reader.ReadToEnd());
    }
}

我不知道生成的代码与单个 lambda 表达式相比效率如何，但我怀疑它不会太糟糕。

Answer 4

如需完整解决方案，请查看LINQKit：

Expression<Func<GrandParent, string>> output = gp => mySecond.Invoke(myFirst.Invoke(gp));
output = output.Expand().Expand();

---

output.ToString() 打印出来

gp => gp.Parent.Child.Name

而 Jon Skeet 的解决方案产生了

x => Invoke(p => p.Child.Name,Invoke(gp => gp.Parent,x))

我猜这就是您所说的“嵌套函数调用”。

Answer 5

试试这个：

public static Expression<Func<TOuter, TInner>> Combine<TOuter, TMiddle, TInner>(
    Expression<Func<TOuter, TMiddle>> first, 
    Expression<Func<TMiddle, TInner>> second)
{
    return x => second.Compile()(first.Compile()(x));
}

及用法：

Expression<Func<GrandParent, Parent>> myFirst = gp => gp.Parent;
Expression<Func<Parent, string>> mySecond = p => p.Child.Name;
Expression<Func<GrandParent, string>> output = Combine(myFirst, mySecond);
var grandParent = new GrandParent 
{ 
    Parent = new Parent 
    { 
        Child = new Child 
        { 
            Name = "child name" 
        } 
    } 
};
var childName = output.Compile()(grandParent);
Console.WriteLine(childName); // prints "child name"

Answer 6

    public static Expression<Func<T, TResult>> And<T, TResult>(this Expression<Func<T, TResult>> expr1, Expression<Func<T, TResult>> expr2)
    {
        var invokedExpr = Expression.Invoke(expr2, expr1.Parameters.Cast<Expression>());
        return Expression.Lambda<Func<T, TResult>>(Expression.AndAlso(expr1.Body, invokedExpr), expr1.Parameters);
    }

    public static Expression<Func<T, bool>> Or<T>(this Expression<Func<T, bool>> expr1, Expression<Func<T, bool>> expr2)
    {
        var invokedExpr = Expression.Invoke(expr2, expr1.Parameters.Cast<Expression>());
        return Expression.Lambda<Func<T, bool>>(Expression.OrElse(expr1.Body, invokedExpr), expr1.Parameters);
    }

Answer 7

经过半天的挖掘想出了以下解决方案（比公认的答案简单得多）：

对于通用 lambda 组合：

    public static Expression<Func<X, Z>> Compose<X, Y, Z>(Expression<Func<Y, Z>> f, Expression<Func<X, Y>> g)
    {
        return Expression.Lambda<Func<X, Z>>(Expression.Invoke(f, Expression.Invoke(g, g.Parameters[0])), g.Parameters);
    }

这将两个表达式合二为一，即将第一个表达式应用于第二个表达式的结果。

所以如果我们有 f(y) 和 g(x)，则 combine(f,g)(x) === f(g(x))

传递性和关联性，因此组合子可以链接

更具体地说，对于属性访问（MVC/EF 需要）：

    public static Expression<Func<X, Z>> Property<X, Y, Z>(Expression<Func<X, Y>> fObj, Expression<Func<Y, Z>> fProp)
    {
        return Expression.Lambda<Func<X, Z>>(Expression.Property(fObj.Body, (fProp.Body as MemberExpression).Member as PropertyInfo), fObj.Parameters);
    }

注意：fProp 必须是简单的属性访问表达式，例如x => x.Prop。

fObj 可以是任何表达式（但必须与 MVC 兼容）

Answer 8

使用名为Layer Over LINQ 的工具包，有一个扩展方法可以做到这一点，它结合两个表达式来创建一个适用于 LINQ to Entities 的新表达式。

Expression<Func<GrandParent, Parent>>> myFirst = gp => gp.Parent;
Expression<Func<Parent, string>> mySecond = p => p.Child.Name;

Expression<Func<GrandParent, string>> output = myFirst.Chain(mySecond);
