TPL Veri Akışı Kitaplığı, bir veya daha fazla kaynaktan veri alıp arabelleğe almanız ve arabelleğe alınan verileri tek bir koleksiyon olarak yayabilmeniz için System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.BatchBlock<T> ve System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.BatchedJoinBlock<T1,T2> sınıflarını sağlar. Bu toplu işlem mekanizması, bir veya daha fazla kaynaktan veri toplayıp birden çok veri öğesini toplu iş olarak işlerken kullanışlıdır. Örneğin, veritabanına kayıt eklemek için veri akışı kullanan bir uygulamayı düşünün. Birden çok öğe sırayla yerine aynı anda eklenirse bu işlem daha verimli olabilir. Bu belgede, bu tür veritabanı ekleme işlemlerinin BatchBlock<T> verimliliğini artırmak için sınıfın nasıl kullanılacağı açıklanmaktadır. Programın veritabanından okuma işlemi sırasında oluşan hem sonuçları hem de özel durumları yakalamak için BatchedJoinBlock<T1,T2> sınıfının nasıl kullanılacağını da açıklar.
Uyarı
TPL Veri Akışı Kitaplığı (System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow ad alanı) .NET ile dağıtılmaz. Visual Studio'da System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow ad alanını yüklemek için projenizi açın, Project menüsünden NuGet Paketlerini Yönet seçin ve System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow paketini çevrimiçi olarak arayın. Alternatif olarak, .NET Core CLI kullanarakyüklemek için dotnet add package System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflowçalıştırın.
Önkoşullar
Bu kılavuza başlamadan önce Veri Akışı belgesindeki Birleştirme Blokları bölümünü okuyun.
Bilgisayarınızda Northwind.sdf adlı Northwind veritabanının bir kopyası olduğundan emin olun.
Önemli
Windows'un bazı sürümlerinde, Visual Studio yönetici olmayan modda çalışıyorsa Northwind.sdf'ye bağlanamazsınız. Northwind.sdf'ye bağlanmak için Yönetici olarak çalıştır modunda Visual Studio'yu veya Visual Studio için Geliştirici Komut İstemi'ni başlatın.

Bu yöntem AddEmployees'a benzer, ancak birden çok BatchBlock<T> nesneyi Employee nesnesine göndermeden önce arabelleğe almak için ActionBlock<TInput> sınıfını kullanır.

Bu yöntem, rastgele çalışanlar hakkındaki bilgileri konsola yazdırır. Birkaç rastgele Employee nesne oluşturur ve her nesnenin benzersiz tanımlayıcısını almak için yöntemini çağırır GetEmployeeID .
GetEmployeeID yöntemi, belirtilen ad ve soyadlarla eşleşen bir çalışan yoksa bir özel durum atar. Bu nedenle, GetRandomEmployees yöntemi, BatchedJoinBlock<T1,T2> için başarılı çağrılarda Employee nesnelerini ve başarısız çağrılarda GetEmployeeID nesnelerini depolamak için System.Exception sınıfını kullanır.
ActionBlock<TInput> Bu örnekteki nesne, bir Tuple<T1,T2> nesnesi üzerinde hareket eder; bu nesne, hem Employee nesnelerinin bir listesini hem de Exception nesnelerinin bir listesini tutar. Alınan BatchedJoinBlock<T1,T2> ve Employee nesne sayısının toplamı toplu iş boyutuna eşit olduğunda Exception nesnesi bu verileri yayar.
