如果你正在使用自动绘图器，面临以下问题是一个很好的解决方案，它为我工作

因为问题是我们正在映射空导航属性，我们实际上不需要在实体上更新它们，因为它们在契约上没有改变，我们需要在映射定义上忽略它们:

ForMember(dest => dest.RefundType, opt => opt.Ignore())

所以我的代码是这样的:

Mapper.CreateMap<MyDataContract, MyEntity>
ForMember(dest => dest.NavigationProperty1, opt => opt.Ignore())
ForMember(dest => dest.NavigationProperty2, opt => opt.Ignore())
.IgnoreAllNonExisting();

出现这个问题是因为我们试图删除父表，但仍然存在子表数据。 我们利用级联删除来解决这个问题。

在模型中创建dbcontext类中的方法。

 modelBuilder.Entity<Job>()
                .HasMany<JobSportsMapping>(C => C.JobSportsMappings)
                .WithRequired(C => C.Job)
                .HasForeignKey(C => C.JobId).WillCascadeOnDelete(true);
            modelBuilder.Entity<Sport>()
                .HasMany<JobSportsMapping>(C => C.JobSportsMappings)
                  .WithRequired(C => C.Sport)
                  .HasForeignKey(C => C.SportId).WillCascadeOnDelete(true);

之后，在我们的API调用中

var JobList = Context.Job                       
          .Include(x => x.JobSportsMappings)                                     .ToList();
Context.Job.RemoveRange(JobList);
Context.SaveChanges();

级联删除选项删除父表以及与父相关的子表，使用这个简单的代码。用这个简单的方法试试。

删除范围用于删除数据库中的记录列表 谢谢

我尝试过这些方法和其他方法，但没有一个很有效。由于这是谷歌上的第一个答案，我将在这里添加我的解。

对我来说很有效的方法是在提交期间将关系排除在外，这样EF就不会搞砸了。我通过在DBContext中重新找到父对象并删除它来做到这一点。因为重新找到的对象的导航属性都是空的，所以在提交过程中会忽略子对象的关系。

var toDelete = db.Parents.Find(parentObject.ID);
db.Parents.Remove(toDelete);
db.SaveChanges();

注意，这里假设外键设置为ON DELETE CASCADE，所以当父行被删除时，子行将被数据库清除。

如果你在同一个类上使用AutoMapper和实体框架，你可能会遇到这个问题。例如，如果你的类是

class A
{
    public ClassB ClassB { get; set; }
    public int ClassBId { get; set; }
}

AutoMapper.Map<A, A>(input, destination);

这将尝试复制两个属性。在这种情况下，ClassBId是非空的。因为AutoMapper将复制目标。ClassB = input.ClassB;这将导致一个问题。

将您的AutoMapper设置为Ignore ClassB属性。

 cfg.CreateMap<A, A>()
     .ForMember(m => m.ClassB, opt => opt.Ignore()); // We use the ClassBId

You should delete old child items thisParent.ChildItems one by one manually. Entity Framework doesn't do that for you. It finally cannot decide what you want to do with the old child items - if you want to throw them away or if you want to keep and assign them to other parent entities. You must tell Entity Framework your decision. But one of these two decisions you HAVE to make since the child entities cannot live alone without a reference to any parent in the database (due to the foreign key constraint). That's basically what the exception says.

Edit

如果子项目可以添加，更新和删除，我会做什么:

public void UpdateEntity(ParentItem parent)
{
    // Load original parent including the child item collection
    var originalParent = _dbContext.ParentItems
        .Where(p => p.ID == parent.ID)
        .Include(p => p.ChildItems)
        .SingleOrDefault();
    // We assume that the parent is still in the DB and don't check for null

    // Update scalar properties of parent,
    // can be omitted if we don't expect changes of the scalar properties
    var parentEntry = _dbContext.Entry(originalParent);
    parentEntry.CurrentValues.SetValues(parent);

    foreach (var childItem in parent.ChildItems)
    {
        var originalChildItem = originalParent.ChildItems
            .Where(c => c.ID == childItem.ID && c.ID != 0)
            .SingleOrDefault();
        // Is original child item with same ID in DB?
        if (originalChildItem != null)
        {
            // Yes -> Update scalar properties of child item
            var childEntry = _dbContext.Entry(originalChildItem);
            childEntry.CurrentValues.SetValues(childItem);
        }
        else
        {
            // No -> It's a new child item -> Insert
            childItem.ID = 0;
            originalParent.ChildItems.Add(childItem);
        }
    }

    // Don't consider the child items we have just added above.
    // (We need to make a copy of the list by using .ToList() because
    // _dbContext.ChildItems.Remove in this loop does not only delete
    // from the context but also from the child collection. Without making
    // the copy we would modify the collection we are just interating
    // through - which is forbidden and would lead to an exception.)
    foreach (var originalChildItem in
                 originalParent.ChildItems.Where(c => c.ID != 0).ToList())
    {
        // Are there child items in the DB which are NOT in the
        // new child item collection anymore?
        if (!parent.ChildItems.Any(c => c.ID == originalChildItem.ID))
            // Yes -> It's a deleted child item -> Delete
            _dbContext.ChildItems.Remove(originalChildItem);
    }

    _dbContext.SaveChanges();
}

注意:这不是测试。它假设子项集合的类型是ICollection。(我通常有IList，然后代码看起来有点不同。)为了保持简单，我还去掉了所有存储库抽象。

我不知道这是否是一个好的解决方案，但我相信必须按照这些思路做一些艰苦的工作，以处理导航集合中的各种更改。我也很乐意看到一种更简单的方法。

我使用了Mosh的解决方案，但我不清楚如何在代码中正确地实现组合键。

这就是解决方案:

public class Holiday
{
    [Key, Column(Order = 0), DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity)]
    public int HolidayId { get; set; }
    [Key, Column(Order = 1), ForeignKey("Location")]
    public LocationEnum LocationId { get; set; }

    public virtual Location Location { get; set; }

    public DateTime Date { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
}
