只要涉及到数据库的操作,那么使用事务就是难免的。如果我们使用LINQ to SQL 作为数据访问层,那么LINQ 提供的SubmitChanges() 方法自身就包含了对事务的处理。当然,我们也可以利用System.Data.Common.DbTransaction 对事务进行处理,我们可以调用DataContext 中Connection 的方法BeginTransaction() 启动事务,然后根据情况进行回滚或提交。例如是这样一段代码:
LinqSampleDataContext context = new LinqSampleDataContext();
System.Data.Common.DbTransaction trans = null;
try
{
context.Connection.Open();
trans = context.Connection.BeginTransaction();
context.Transaction = trans;
context.Employees.InsertOnSubmit(emp);
context.SubmitChanges();
trans.Commit();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
if (trans != null)
{
trans.Rollback();
}
}
然而,当我们在使用LINQ to SQL 中时,往往会同时使用多个DataContext ,此时我们就需要使用TransactionScope 。例如:
using (TransactionScope scope = new TransactionScope(TransactionScopeOption.RequiresNew))
{
try
{
for (int i = 0; i < nominees.Count; ++i)
{
Backup newBackup = nominees[i];
Ticket ticket = tickets[i];
//update the information of ticket
//mainly add the information of employee;
ticket.EmployeeID = newBackup.EmployeeID;
ticket.HaveNominated = true;
ticket.IsConfirmedByManager = true;
ticket.Status = TicketStatus.Enroll.ToString();
ticketAccessor.Update(ticket);
}
//update the IsSubmit of backup;
ChangeSubmitStatue(backup);
//remove the record of nominee in backup table
Delete(nominees);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
ThrowHelper.ThrowBackupException("Finalizing occurs an error. The transcation will be rollback.");
return false;
}
scope.Complete();
}
代码中,分别涉及到Update, Delete 等操作,因此我们势必需要用事务,保证数据整体提交或整体回滚。在使用事务的时候,有一些前置条件是必备的。例如启动Distributed Transaction Coordinator 服务,否则,就会抛出System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException 异常,信息为:"MSDTC on server '{Server Name}' is unavailable." 。是的,很多资料都是这样描述的。然而,现实并没有这么简单。我们首先得考虑运行代码的机器是否与数据库所在的机器是同一台。这里所谓的启动Distributed Transaction Coordinator 服务,实际上是要启动数据库服务器的服务。如果数据库与代码服务器是同一台,通过这样的设置就没有错误了。
当数据库与代码服务器分属两台机器呢?同样运行如上的代码,就会抛出System.Transactions.TransactionManagerCommunicationException 异常。异常信息为:"Network access for Distributed Transaction Manager (MSDTC) has been disabled. Please enable DTC for network access in the security configuration for MSDTC using the Component Services Administrative tool."
这是一种通信错误,原因在于两台服务器之间的安全配置禁止了分布式事务。解决办法是在运行代码的服务器上,配置Component Services 。方法如下:
1 . 在Run 运行窗口中,输入dcomcnfg 命令,这样就可以打开Component Services 。
2 . 选择Component Services->Computers->My Computer ;
3 . 右键单击My Computer ,在弹出的快捷菜单中,选择“Properties” ,然后点击MSDTC tab ;
4 . 在MSDTC tab 中,点击Security Configuration 按钮;
5 . 在弹出的对话框中参照下表的建议进行设置:

最后的设置如截图:
如果操作系统是Windows 2003 ,通常默认的设置就是正确的。不过我们在编写程序时,不管是Unit Test ,还是其他测试,最频繁的还是在本机上运行。如果操作系统是Windows XP ,就不得不进行这样的设置了。
