Using Entity Framework 6 with asp.net webapi, and map with stored procedure,
how to convert an ObjectContext
execution method to an async task ?
As an alternative to the ExecuteFunction you could use the following construct which will provide you with asynchronous execution:
Task<SomeResult[]> results = ctx.Database.SqlQuery<SomeResult>("EXEC sp_myproc {0}, {1}, {2}", p1, p2, p3).ToArrayAsync();
or:
SomeResult[] results = await ctx.Database.SqlQuery<SomeResult>("EXEC sp_myproc {0}, {1}, {2}", p1, p2, p3).ToArrayAsync();
If you need to use the ExecuteFunction method you could try this:
IDbAsyncEnumerable<SomeResult> enumerable = this.ExecuteFunction<SomeResult>("sp_myproc", p1, p2, p3) as IDbAsyncEnumerable<SomeResult>;
IDbAsyncEnumerator<SomeResult> enumerator = enumerable.GetAsyncEnumerator();
while (await enumerator.MoveNextAsync(CancellationToken.None))
{
SomeResult res = enumerator.Current;
...
}
This being said, it is worth mentioning that if you decide to use the ExecuteFunction method the actual SQL statement will run on the ExecuteFunction
line, and not when enumerating the results.
