using(var myDb = new MyDbEntities())
{

    user user = new user();
    user.username = "me";
    user.email = "me@me.com";

    myDb.Users.Add(user);
    myDb.users.Attach(user);
    myDb.Entry(user).State = EntityState.Modified;//this is for modiying/update existing entry
    myDb.SaveChanges();
}

这里是这个问题的最佳解决方案:在视图中添加所有的ID(键)。考虑将多个表命名为(First, Second和Third)

@Html.HiddenFor(model=>model.FirstID)
@Html.HiddenFor(model=>model.SecondID)
@Html.HiddenFor(model=>model.Second.SecondID)
@Html.HiddenFor(model=>model.Second.ThirdID)
@Html.HiddenFor(model=>model.Second.Third.ThirdID)

在c#代码中，

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Edit(First first)
{
  if (ModelState.Isvalid)
  {
    if (first.FirstID > 0)
    {
      datacontext.Entry(first).State = EntityState.Modified;
      datacontext.Entry(first.Second).State = EntityState.Modified;
      datacontext.Entry(first.Second.Third).State = EntityState.Modified;
    }
    else
    {
      datacontext.First.Add(first);
    }
    datacontext.SaveChanges();
    Return RedirectToAction("Index");
  }

 return View(first);
}

您正在尝试更新记录(对我来说这意味着“更改现有记录上的值并将其保存回来”)。因此，您需要检索对象，进行更改并保存它。

using (var db = new MyContextDB())
{
    var result = db.Books.SingleOrDefault(b => b.BookNumber == bookNumber);
    if (result != null)
    {
        result.SomeValue = "Some new value";
        db.SaveChanges();
    }
}

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 (); ｝

如Renat所说，删除:db.Books.Attach(book);

另外，将结果查询改为使用“AsNoTracking”，因为该查询会抛出实体框架的模型状态。它认为“结果”是现在要追踪的书，而你不想要那个。

var result = db.Books.AsNoTracking().SingleOrDefault(b => b.BookNumber == bookNumber);

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);
        }
    }
}
