当尝试使用Attach()和SaveChanges()组合更新记录时，我也有同样的问题，但我使用的是SQLite DB及其EF提供者(相同的代码在SQLServer DB中工作没有问题)。

I found out, when your DB column has GUID (or UniqueIdentity) in SQLite and your model is nvarchar, SQLIte EF treats it as Binary(i.e., byte[]) by default. So when SQLite EF provider tries to convert GUID into the model (string in my case) it will fail as it will convert to byte[]. The fix is to tell the SQLite EF to treat GUID as TEXT (and therefore conversion is into strings, not byte[]) by defining "BinaryGUID=false;" in the connectionstring (or metadata, if you're using database first) like so:

  <connectionStrings>
    <add name="Entities" connectionString="metadata=res://savetyping...=System.Data.SQLite.EF6;provider connection string=&quot;data source=C:\...\db.sqlite3;Version=3;BinaryGUID=false;App=EntityFramework&quot;" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" />
  </connectionStrings>

附加实体会将其跟踪状态设置为Unchanged。要更新现有实体，您所需要做的就是将跟踪状态设置为Modified。根据EF6文档:

如果您知道数据库中已经存在一个实体，但可能已经对其进行了更改，那么您可以告诉上下文附加该实体，并将其状态设置为Modified。例如: var existingBlog =新Blog {BlogId = 1, Name = "ADO. log "。NET Blog"}; 使用(var context = new BloggingContext()) ｛ context.Entry (existingBlog)。State = EntityState.Modified; //多做点工作… context.SaveChanges (); ｝

我一直在审查实体框架的源代码，并找到了一种方法来实际更新一个实体，如果你知道Key属性:

public void Update<T>(T item) where T: Entity
{
    // assume Entity base class have an Id property for all items
    var entity = _collection.Find(item.Id);
    if (entity == null)
    {
        return;
    }

    _context.Entry(entity).CurrentValues.SetValues(item);
}

否则，请检查AddOrUpdate实现以获得想法。

希望这对你有所帮助!

我知道这个问题已经被回答过几次了，但我喜欢下面的方法。我希望它能帮助到一些人。

//attach object (search for row)
TableName tn = _context.TableNames.Attach(new TableName { PK_COLUMN = YOUR_VALUE});
// set new value
tn.COLUMN_NAME_TO_UPDATE = NEW_COLUMN_VALUE;
// set column as modified
_context.Entry<TableName>(tn).Property(tnp => tnp.COLUMN_NAME_TO_UPDATE).IsModified = true;
// save change
_context.SaveChanges();

这段代码是一个测试的结果，该测试只更新了一组列，而没有首先进行查询以返回记录。它首先使用实体框架7代码。

// This function receives an object type that can be a view model or an anonymous 
// object with the properties you want to change. 
// This is part of a repository for a Contacts object.

public int Update(object entity)
{
    var entityProperties =  entity.GetType().GetProperties();   
    Contacts con = ToType(entity, typeof(Contacts)) as Contacts;

    if (con != null)
    {
        _context.Entry(con).State = EntityState.Modified;
        _context.Contacts.Attach(con);

        foreach (var ep in entityProperties)
        {
            // If the property is named Id, don't add it in the update. 
            // It can be refactored to look in the annotations for a key 
            // or any part named Id.

            if(ep.Name != "Id")
                _context.Entry(con).Property(ep.Name).IsModified = true;
        }
    }

    return _context.SaveChanges();
}

public static object ToType<T>(object obj, T type)
{
    // Create an instance of T type object
    object tmp = Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetType(type.ToString()));

    // Loop through the properties of the object you want to convert
    foreach (PropertyInfo pi in obj.GetType().GetProperties())
    {
        try
        {
            // Get the value of the property and try to assign it to the property of T type object
            tmp.GetType().GetProperty(pi.Name).SetValue(tmp, pi.GetValue(obj, null), null);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            // Logging.Log.Error(ex);
        }
    }
    // Return the T type object:         
    return tmp;
}

以下是完整的代码:

public interface IContactRepository
{
    IEnumerable<Contacts> GetAllContats();
    IEnumerable<Contacts> GetAllContactsWithAddress();
    int Update(object c);
}

public class ContactRepository : IContactRepository
{
    private ContactContext _context;

    public ContactRepository(ContactContext context)
    {
        _context = context;
    }

    public IEnumerable<Contacts> GetAllContats()
    {
        return _context.Contacts.OrderBy(c => c.FirstName).ToList();
    }

    public IEnumerable<Contacts> GetAllContactsWithAddress()
    {
        return _context.Contacts
            .Include(c => c.Address)
            .OrderBy(c => c.FirstName).ToList();
    }   

    //TODO Change properties to lambda expression
    public int Update(object entity)
    {
        var entityProperties = entity.GetType().GetProperties();

        Contacts con = ToType(entity, typeof(Contacts)) as Contacts;

        if (con != null)
        {
            _context.Entry(con).State = EntityState.Modified;
            _context.Contacts.Attach(con);

            foreach (var ep in entityProperties)
            {
                if(ep.Name != "Id")
                    _context.Entry(con).Property(ep.Name).IsModified = true;
            }
        }

        return _context.SaveChanges();
    }

    public static object ToType<T>(object obj, T type)
    {
        // Create an instance of T type object
        object tmp = Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetType(type.ToString()));

        // Loop through the properties of the object you want to convert
        foreach (PropertyInfo pi in obj.GetType().GetProperties())
        {
            try
            {
                // Get the value of the property and try to assign it to the property of T type object
                tmp.GetType().GetProperty(pi.Name).SetValue(tmp, pi.GetValue(obj, null), null);
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                // Logging.Log.Error(ex);
            }
        }
        // Return the T type object
        return tmp;
    }
}    

public class Contacts
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
    public string LastName { get; set; }
    public string Email { get; set; }
    public string Company { get; set; }
    public string Title { get; set; }
    public Addresses Address { get; set; }    
}

public class Addresses
{
    [Key]
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public string AddressType { get; set; }
    public string StreetAddress { get; set; }
    public string City { get; set; }
    public State State { get; set; }
    public string PostalCode { get; set; }  
}

public class ContactContext : DbContext
{
    public DbSet<Addresses> Address { get; set; } 
    public DbSet<Contacts> Contacts { get; set; } 
    public DbSet<State> States { get; set; }

    protected override void OnConfiguring(DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder)
    {
        var connString = "Server=YourServer;Database=ContactsDb;Trusted_Connection=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=true;";
        optionsBuilder.UseSqlServer(connString);
        base.OnConfiguring(optionsBuilder);
    }
}

以下是我的后ria实体更新方法(Ef6时间框架):

public static void UpdateSegment(ISegment data)
{
    if (data == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("The expected Segment data is not here.");

    var context = GetContext();

    var originalData = context.Segments.SingleOrDefault(i => i.SegmentId == data.SegmentId);
    if (originalData == null) throw new NullReferenceException("The expected original Segment data is not here.");

    FrameworkTypeUtility.SetProperties(data, originalData);

    context.SaveChanges();
}

注意FrameworkTypeUtility.SetProperties()是我在NuGet上AutoMapper之前写的一个小工具函数:

public static void SetProperties<TIn, TOut>(TIn input, TOut output, ICollection<string> includedProperties)
    where TIn : class
    where TOut : class
{
    if ((input == null) || (output == null)) return;
    Type inType = input.GetType();
    Type outType = output.GetType();
    foreach (PropertyInfo info in inType.GetProperties())
    {
        PropertyInfo outfo = ((info != null) && info.CanRead)
            ? outType.GetProperty(info.Name, info.PropertyType)
            : null;
        if (outfo != null && outfo.CanWrite
            && (outfo.PropertyType.Equals(info.PropertyType)))
        {
            if ((includedProperties != null) && includedProperties.Contains(info.Name))
                outfo.SetValue(output, info.GetValue(input, null), null);
            else if (includedProperties == null)
                outfo.SetValue(output, info.GetValue(input, null), null);
        }
    }
}
