I have a really strange behavior that actually gives me different result if I step through the code using the debugger or just run the app (press play).
The model looks like this;
public class QuestionPack
{
public int QuestionPackID { get; set; }
public string Hashcode { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Question> Questions { get; set; }
}
And I save this class to the DB using a repository-pattern like this;
public class EFQuestionPackRepository : IQuestionPackRepository
{
private EFDbContext context = new EFDbContext();
public IQueryable<QuestionPack> QuestionsPacks
{
get { return context.QuestionPacks; }
}
public void SaveQuestionPack(QuestionPack questionpack)
{
if (questionpack.QuestionPackID == 0)
{
context.QuestionPacks.Add(questionpack);
}
else
{
QuestionPack dbEntry = context.QuestionPacks.Find(questionpack.QuestionPackID);
if (dbEntry != null)
{
dbEntry.Hashcode = questionpack.Hashcode;
dbEntry.Questions = questionpack.Questions;
}
}
context.SaveChanges();
}
}
This works perfectly when adding data, but when I try to update (the else statement) I get doubles on the Questions, eg. the questions get saved but with the already saved questions so if i have 4 questions, update that question with ONE question and save, i will end up with 9 questions.
BUT; if I step through the code using the debugger (start from the SaveQuestionPack-function and hit "continue", after context.saveChanges()" I get the expected result. I'm so confused I don't even know where to start looking. I guess it have something to do with the fact that I'm trying to store a collection, but why does it work when I step through the save process?
Any input is appreciated.
I think i solved it but im not really sure why it works...
I added this;
dbEntry.Questions.Clear();
before;
dbEntry.Questions = questionpack.Questions;
Anyone having a idea why this corrected the fault?
