演练：使用 BatchBlock 和 BatchedJoinBlock 提高效率
TPL 数据流库提供 System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.BatchBlock<T> 和 System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.BatchedJoinBlock<T1,T2> 类，以便可以接收和缓冲一个或多个源的数据，再将缓冲的数据作为一个集合传播出去。 如果从一个或多个源收集数据，再批处理多个数据元素，就会发现这种批处理机制非常有用。 例如，假设应用使用数据流将记录插入数据库。 如果同时插入多项，而不是顺序一次插入一个，此操作可能会更高效。 本文档介绍了如何使用 BatchBlock<T> 类，提高此类数据库插入操作的效率。 它还介绍了如何使用 BatchedJoinBlock<T1,T2> 类，捕获程序从数据库读取数据时的结果和发生的任何异常。
注意
TPL 数据流库（System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow 命名空间）不随 .NET 一起分发。 若要在 Visual Studio 中安装 System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow 命名空间，请打开项目，选择“项目”菜单中的“管理 NuGet 包”，再在线搜索 System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow 包。 或者，若要使用 .NET Core CLI 进行安装，请运行 dotnet add package System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow。
先决条件
开始本演练前，请先阅读数据流文档中的“联接块”部分。
确保计算机上有 Northwind 数据库的副本 Northwind.sdf。 此文件通常位于 %Program Files%\Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition\v3.5\Samples\ 文件夹中。
重要
在一些版本的 Windows 中，如果以非管理员模式运行 Visual Studio，便无法连接到 Northwind.sdf。 若要连接到 Northwind.sdf，请在“以管理员身份运行”模式下启动 Visual Studio 或 Visual Studio 开发人员命令提示。
本演练包含以下各节：
创建控制台应用
在 Visual Studio 中，创建 Visual C# 或 Visual Basic“控制台应用程序”项目。 在本文档中，该项目名为
DataflowBatchDatabase。在项目中，添加对 System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll 和 System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.dll 的引用。
确保 Form1.cs（对于 Visual Basic，则为 Form1.vb）包含以下
using（Visual Basic 中为Imports）语句。using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Data.SqlServerCe; using System.Diagnostics; using System.IO; using System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow;Imports System.Collections.Generic Imports System.Data.SqlServerCe Imports System.Diagnostics Imports System.IO Imports System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow将以下数据成员添加到
Program类。// The number of employees to add to the database. // TODO: Change this value to experiment with different numbers of // employees to insert into the database. static readonly int insertCount = 256; // The size of a single batch of employees to add to the database. // TODO: Change this value to experiment with different batch sizes. static readonly int insertBatchSize = 96; // The source database file. // TODO: Change this value if Northwind.sdf is at a different location // on your computer. static readonly string sourceDatabase = @"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition\v3.5\Samples\Northwind.sdf"; // TODO: Change this value if you require a different temporary location. static readonly string scratchDatabase = @"C:\Temp\Northwind.sdf";' The number of employees to add to the database.

定义 Employee 类
向 Program 类添加 Employee 类。
// Describes an employee. Each property maps to a
// column in the Employees table in the Northwind database.
// For brevity, the Employee class does not contain
// all columns from the Employees table.
class Employee
{
public int EmployeeID { get; set; }
public string LastName { get; set; }
public string FirstName { get; set; }
// A random number generator that helps tp generate
// Employee property values.
static Random rand = new Random(42);
// Possible random first names.
static readonly string[] firstNames = { "Tom", "Mike", "Ruth", "Bob", "John" };
// Possible random last names.
static readonly string[] lastNames = { "Jones", "Smith", "Johnson", "Walker" };
// Creates an Employee object that contains random
// property values.
public static Employee Random()
{
return new Employee
{
EmployeeID = -1,
LastName = lastNames[rand.Next() % lastNames.Length],
FirstName = firstNames[rand.Next() % firstNames.Length]
};
}
}
' Describes an employee. Each property maps to a
' column in the Employees table in the Northwind database.
' For brevity, the Employee class does not contain
' all columns from the Employees table.
Private Class Employee
Public Property EmployeeID() As Integer
Public Property LastName() As String
Public Property FirstName() As String
' A random number generator that helps tp generate
' Employee property values.
Private Shared rand As New Random(42)
' Possible random first names.
Private Shared ReadOnly firstNames() As String = {"Tom", "Mike", "Ruth", "Bob", "John"}
' Possible random last names.
Private Shared ReadOnly lastNames() As String = {"Jones", "Smith", "Johnson", "Walker"}
' Creates an Employee object that contains random

Public Shared Function Random() As Employee
Return New Employee With {.EmployeeID = -1, .LastName = lastNames(rand.Next() Mod lastNames.Length), .FirstName = firstNames(rand.Next() Mod firstNames.Length)}
End Function
End Class
Employee 类包含下面三个属性：EmployeeID、LastName 和 FirstName。 这些属性对应于 Northwind 数据库中 Employees 表的 Employee ID、Last Name 和 First Name 列。 在展示的此示例中，Employee 类还定义了 Random 方法，用于创建属性值为随机值的 Employee 对象。
定义员工数据库操作
向 Program 添加 InsertEmployees、GetEmployeeCount 和 GetEmployeeID 方法。
// Adds new employee records to the database.
static void InsertEmployees(Employee[] employees, string connectionString)
{
using (SqlCeConnection connection =
new SqlCeConnection(connectionString))
{
try
{
// Create the SQL command.
SqlCeCommand command = new SqlCeCommand(
"INSERT INTO Employees ([Last Name], [First Name])" +
"VALUES (@lastName, @firstName)",
connection);
connection.Open();
for (int i = 0; i < employees.Length; i++)
{
// Set parameters.
command.Parameters.Clear();
command.Parameters.Add("@lastName", employees[i].LastName);
command.Parameters.Add("@firstName", employees[i].FirstName);
// Execute the command.
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
}
finally
{
connection.Close();
}
}
}
// Retrieves the number of entries in the Employees table in
// the Northwind database.
static int GetEmployeeCount(string connectionString)
{
int result = 0;
using (SqlCeConnection sqlConnection =
new SqlCeConnection(connectionString))
{
SqlCeCommand sqlCommand = new SqlCeCommand(
"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Employees", sqlConnection);
sqlConnection.Open();
try
{
result = (int)sqlCommand.ExecuteScalar();
}
finally
{
sqlConnection.Close();
}
}
return result;
}
// Retrieves the ID of the first employee that has the provided name.
static int GetEmployeeID(string lastName, string firstName,
string connectionString)
{
using (SqlCeConnection connection =
new SqlCeConnection(connectionString))
{
SqlCeCommand command = new SqlCeCommand(
string.Format(
"SELECT [Employee ID] FROM Employees " +
"WHERE [Last Name] = '{0}' AND [First Name] = '{1}'",
lastName, firstName),
connection);
connection.Open();
try
{
return (int)command.ExecuteScalar();
}
finally
{
connection.Close();
}
}
}
' Adds new employee records to the database.
Private Shared Sub InsertEmployees(ByVal employees() As Employee, ByVal connectionString As String)
Using connection As New SqlCeConnection(connectionString)
Try
' Create the SQL command.
Dim command As New SqlCeCommand("INSERT INTO Employees ([Last Name], [First Name])" & "VALUES (@lastName, @firstName)", connection)
connection.Open()
For i As Integer = 0 To employees.Length - 1
' Set parameters.
command.Parameters.Clear()
command.Parameters.Add("@lastName", employees(i).LastName)
command.Parameters.Add("@firstName", employees(i).FirstName)
' Execute the command.
command.ExecuteNonQuery()
Next i
Finally
connection.Close()
End Try
End Using
End Sub
' Retrieves the number of entries in the Employees table in
' the Northwind database.
Private Shared Function GetEmployeeCount(ByVal connectionString As String) As Integer
Dim result As Integer = 0
Using sqlConnection As New SqlCeConnection(connectionString)
Dim sqlCommand As New SqlCeCommand("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Employees", sqlConnection)
sqlConnection.Open()
Try
result = CInt(Fix(sqlCommand.ExecuteScalar()))
Finally
sqlConnection.Close()
End Try
End Using
Return result
End Function
' Retrieves the ID of the first employee that has the provided name.
Private Shared Function GetEmployeeID(ByVal lastName As String, ByVal firstName As String, ByVal connectionString As String) As Integer
Using connection As New SqlCeConnection(connectionString)
Dim command As New SqlCeCommand(String.Format("SELECT [Employee ID] FROM Employees " & "WHERE [Last Name] = '{0}' AND [First Name] = '{1}'", lastName, firstName), connection)
connection.Open()
Try
Return CInt(Fix(command.ExecuteScalar()))
Finally
connection.Close()
End Try
End Using
End Function
InsertEmployees 方法将新员工记录添加到数据库。 GetEmployeeCount 方法检索 Employees 表中的条目数。 GetEmployeeID 方法检索与所提供姓名匹配的首位员工的标识符。 这三个方法全都需要对 Northwind 数据库使用连接字符串，并使用 System.Data.SqlServerCe 命名空间中的功能与数据库进行通信。
不使用缓冲将员工数据添加到数据库
向 Program 类添加 AddEmployees 和 PostRandomEmployees 方法。
// Posts random Employee data to the provided target block.
static void PostRandomEmployees(ITargetBlock<Employee> target, int count)
{
Console.WriteLine("Adding {0} entries to Employee table...", count);
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
target.Post(Employee.Random());
}
}
// Adds random employee data to the database by using dataflow.
static void AddEmployees(string connectionString, int count)
{
// Create an ActionBlock<Employee> object that adds a single
// employee entry to the database.
var insertEmployee = new ActionBlock<Employee>(e =>
InsertEmployees(new Employee[] { e }, connectionString));
// Post several random Employee objects to the dataflow block.
PostRandomEmployees(insertEmployee, count);
// Set the dataflow block to the completed state and wait for
// all insert operations to complete.
insertEmployee.Complete();
insertEmployee.Completion.Wait();
}
' Posts random Employee data to the provided target block.
Private Shared Sub PostRandomEmployees(ByVal target As ITargetBlock(Of Employee), ByVal count As Integer)
Console.WriteLine("Adding {0} entries to Employee table...", count)
For i As Integer = 0 To count - 1
target.Post(Employee.Random())
Next i
End Sub
' Adds random employee data to the database by using dataflow.
Private Shared Sub AddEmployees(ByVal connectionString As String, ByVal count As Integer)
' Create an ActionBlock<Employee> object that adds a single
' employee entry to the database.
Dim insertEmployee = New ActionBlock(Of Employee)(Sub(e) InsertEmployees(New Employee() {e}, connectionString))
' Post several random Employee objects to the dataflow block.
PostRandomEmployees(insertEmployee, count)
' Set the dataflow block to the completed state and wait for
' all insert operations to complete.
insertEmployee.Complete()
insertEmployee.Completion.Wait()
End Sub
AddEmployees 方法使用数据流将随机员工数据添加到数据库。 此方法创建 ActionBlock<TInput> 对象，以调用 InsertEmployees 方法将员工条目添加到数据库。 然后，AddEmployees 方法调用 PostRandomEmployees 方法，将多个 Employee 对象发布到 ActionBlock<TInput> 对象。 然后，AddEmployees 方法等待所有插入操作完成。
使用缓冲将员工数据添加到数据库
向 Program 类添加 AddEmployeesBatched 方法。
// Adds random employee data to the database by using dataflow.
// This method is similar to AddEmployees except that it uses batching
// to add multiple employees to the database at a time.
static void AddEmployeesBatched(string connectionString, int batchSize,
int count)
{
// Create a BatchBlock<Employee> that holds several Employee objects and
// then propagates them out as an array.
var batchEmployees = new BatchBlock<Employee>(batchSize);
// Create an ActionBlock<Employee[]> object that adds multiple
// employee entries to the database.
var insertEmployees = new ActionBlock<Employee[]>(a =>
InsertEmployees(a, connectionString));
// Link the batch block to the action block.
batchEmployees.LinkTo(insertEmployees);
// When the batch block completes, set the action block also to complete.
batchEmployees.Completion.ContinueWith(delegate { insertEmployees.Complete(); });
// Post several random Employee objects to the batch block.
PostRandomEmployees(batchEmployees, count);
// Set the batch block to the completed state and wait for
// all insert operations to complete.
batchEmployees.Complete();
insertEmployees.Completion.Wait();
}
' Adds random employee data to the database by using dataflow.
' This method is similar to AddEmployees except that it uses batching
' to add multiple employees to the database at a time.
Private Shared Sub AddEmployeesBatched(ByVal connectionString As String, ByVal batchSize As Integer, ByVal count As Integer)
' Create a BatchBlock<Employee> that holds several Employee objects and
' then propagates them out as an array.
Dim batchEmployees = New BatchBlock(Of Employee)(batchSize)
' Create an ActionBlock<Employee[]> object that adds multiple
' employee entries to the database.
Dim insertEmployees = New ActionBlock(Of Employee())(Sub(a) Program.InsertEmployees(a, connectionString))
' Link the batch block to the action block.
batchEmployees.LinkTo(insertEmployees)
' When the batch block completes, set the action block also to complete.
batchEmployees.Completion.ContinueWith(Sub() insertEmployees.Complete())
' Post several random Employee objects to the batch block.
PostRandomEmployees(batchEmployees, count)
' Set the batch block to the completed state and wait for
' all insert operations to complete.
batchEmployees.Complete()
insertEmployees.Completion.Wait()
End Sub
此方法类似于 AddEmployees，不同之处在于它还先使用 BatchBlock<T> 类缓冲多个 Employee 对象，然后再将这些对象发送给 ActionBlock<TInput> 对象。 由于 BatchBlock<T> 类将多个元素以集合形式传播出去，因此 ActionBlock<TInput> 对象被修改为对 Employee 对象的数组执行操作。 与 AddEmployees 方法类似，AddEmployeesBatched 调用 PostRandomEmployees 方法发布多个 Employee 对象；不同之处在于，AddEmployeesBatched 将这些对象发布到 BatchBlock<T> 对象。 AddEmployeesBatched 方法还等待所有插入操作完成。
使用已缓冲联接读取数据库中的员工数据
向 Program 类添加 GetRandomEmployees 方法。
// Displays information about several random employees to the console.
static void GetRandomEmployees(string connectionString, int batchSize,
int count)
{
// Create a BatchedJoinBlock<Employee, Exception> object that holds
// both employee and exception data.
var selectEmployees = new BatchedJoinBlock<Employee, Exception>(batchSize);
// Holds the total number of exceptions that occurred.
int totalErrors = 0;
// Create an action block that prints employee and error information
// to the console.
var printEmployees =
new ActionBlock<Tuple<IList<Employee>, IList<Exception>>>(data =>
{
// Print information about the employees in this batch.
Console.WriteLine("Received a batch...");
foreach (Employee e in data.Item1)
{
Console.WriteLine("Last={0} First={1} ID={2}",
e.LastName, e.FirstName, e.EmployeeID);
}
// Print the error count for this batch.
Console.WriteLine("There were {0} errors in this batch...",
data.Item2.Count);
// Update total error count.
totalErrors += data.Item2.Count;
});
// Link the batched join block to the action block.
selectEmployees.LinkTo(printEmployees);
// When the batched join block completes, set the action block also to complete.
selectEmployees.Completion.ContinueWith(delegate { printEmployees.Complete(); });
// Try to retrieve the ID for several random employees.
Console.WriteLine("Selecting random entries from Employees table...");
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
try
{
// Create a random employee.
Employee e = Employee.Random();
// Try to retrieve the ID for the employee from the database.
e.EmployeeID = GetEmployeeID(e.LastName, e.FirstName, connectionString);
// Post the Employee object to the Employee target of
// the batched join block.
selectEmployees.Target1.Post(e);
}
catch (NullReferenceException e)
{
// GetEmployeeID throws NullReferenceException when there is
// no such employee with the given name. When this happens,
// post the Exception object to the Exception target of
// the batched join block.
selectEmployees.Target2.Post(e);
}
}
// Set the batched join block to the completed state and wait for
// all retrieval operations to complete.
selectEmployees.Complete();
printEmployees.Completion.Wait();
// Print the total error count.
Console.WriteLine("Finished. There were {0} total errors.", totalErrors);
}
' Displays information about several random employees to the console.
Private Shared Sub GetRandomEmployees(ByVal connectionString As String, ByVal batchSize As Integer, ByVal count As Integer)
' Create a BatchedJoinBlock<Employee, Exception> object that holds
' both employee and exception data.
Dim selectEmployees = New BatchedJoinBlock(Of Employee, Exception)(batchSize)

For Each e As Employee In data.Item1
Console.WriteLine("Last={0} First={1} ID={2}", e.LastName, e.FirstName, e.EmployeeID)
Next e
Console.WriteLine("There were {0} errors in this batch...", data.Item2.Count)
totalErrors += data.Item2.Count
End Sub)
' Link the batched join block to the action block.

selectEmployees.Target1.Post(e)
Catch e As NullReferenceException
' GetEmployeeID throws NullReferenceException when there is

selectEmployees.Target2.Post(e)
End Try
Next i
' Set the batched join block to the completed state and wait for
' all retrieval operations to complete.
selectEmployees.Complete()
printEmployees.Completion.Wait()
' Print the total error count.
Console.WriteLine("Finished. There were {0} total errors.", totalErrors)
End Sub
此方法将随机员工信息打印到控制台中。 它会创建多个随机 Employee 对象，并调用 GetEmployeeID 方法检索每个对象的唯一标识符。 由于 GetEmployeeID 方法在找不到与给定姓氏和名字匹配的员工时抛出异常，因此 GetRandomEmployees 方法使用 BatchedJoinBlock<T1,T2> 类存储 GetEmployeeID 成功调用对应的 Employee 对象，以及失败调用对应的 System.Exception 对象。 此示例中的 ActionBlock<TInput> 对象对保留 Employee 对象列表和 Exception 对象列表的 Tuple<T1,T2> 对象执行操作。 如果收到的 Employee 和 Exception 对象数总和等于批大小，BatchedJoinBlock<T1,T2> 对象就会传播出此类数据。
