Support list expansion (in @ids) via SqlMapper.PackListParameters - #197
Merged
Conversation
…n PackListParameters An expandable (enumerable) member previously bound as a single raw parameter, which fails at execution; now the generated AddParameters delegates to the public (obsolete, "library usage only") SqlMapper.PackListParameters, which owns the whole in-list contract: the SQL rewrite (including the empty-list and optimize-hint forms), per-item parameters, DbString items, padding and string_split settings, and provider array support. Calling the existing API means this works against every shipped Dapper, so no feature-detection diagnostic is needed; the alternative - a fresh non-obsolete wrapper in Dapper, probe-gated like the DynamicParameters overload - is a fair follow-up if we would rather not lean on an [Obsolete] member from generated code. Guard rails, all parse-side so the call-sites stay on vanilla Dapper rather than misbehave: - command caching is disabled for a factory with an expandable member (the parameter shape varies per call), and CanPrepare is cleared; - multi-exec over elements with an expandable member is skipped (batch reuse updates parameters in-place, which cannot re-expand a list whose size changed); - an expandable member alongside an output/return parameter is skipped (PostProcess reads those back by index, and expansion shifts every index after it). The shared "p" local in AddParameters is now emitted only when some member still needs it, since a factory whose members all expand otherwise declares it unused (CS0168 in the consumer's build). New ListExpansion fixture covers the three working shapes and both skips; the TsqlTips golden moves off the raw bind, which was the broken behaviour.

* Start the Dapper/Dapper.AOT parity accounting under notes/ The goal on record: enable Dapper.AOT in the Dapper test suite, announce types via attributes, and have it swallow everything - AOT-clean. - parity.md: the feature table, with impact/complexity per gap (several 'gaps' score zero because the concept doesn't exist under AOT, e.g. the ref-emit plan cache) - tokens.md: @ids expansion, {=literal}, ?foo? pseudo-positional, param filtering - type-vs-generic.md: the announced-types design space for Type-based APIs - test-suite-audit.md: the Dapper tests as acceptance corpus, sequenced * GetTypeDeserializer is valid API, not cache plumbing With announced types it's the same dispatch map (boxed materializer), and its generic strengthening already exists as GetRowParser<T>. The real hole is the write side: CreateParamInfoGenerator has no generic counterpart - recorded the GetParameterBinder<T> proposal, and the question of blessing CommandFactory<T>/RowFactory<T> as the supported surface. ReadChar and friends are plain AOT-safe statics, nothing to do. * Scope the accounting to the public API and observable behavior PublicAPI.Shipped.txt is the checklist; the contract is what reaches the provider and what comes back, never Dapper's internals. Cuts both ways: the dynamic row needs behavioral fidelity only (the type is internal), while the public infrastructure statics ARE in scope because extenders call them. * Record the decision: internals-asserting tests get adjusted, not maintained * New work item: warn (new DAP id) on use of the has-no-meaning APIs Plan-cache surface, CommandFlags.NoCache, possibly ConnectionStringComparer: supported-and-meaningless under AOT, which is a different statement to DAP001's unsupported-but-meaningful. Warning, not error - the code runs. * Measurement caveat: build-time DAP counts are an upper bound Some failure modes are silent until executed - handled means intercepted, not correct. Only the DB-backed test run catches silent divergence. * First harness baseline: 'handled 396 of 396' alongside 96 compile errors Two root-cause generator bugs (array-of-anonymous parameter emits the display string and wrecks the parse; inaccessible row types are emitted rather than refused), plus two scorecard honesty problems (the denominator excludes unattempted APIs; handled does not mean compiles) and a zero- analyzer-diagnostics anomaly to re-check once the compile is clean. * Generator audit: the capture model snapshots Roslyn nodes; fix first Both generators' cached SourceState hold IMethodSymbol/ITypeSymbol/ Location (MemberMap even holds an IOperation), and the pipeline combines the raw CompilationProvider into the source output - so it behaves as a full-recompute generator with a memory leak. Recorded as a sequencing gate ahead of the gap-closing features, with the fix shape that worked for protobuf-net (plain equatable model, span-based locations, separate diagnostics branch, shape-enforcing test). * Record the agreed plan: gap table, then generator model, then features The line that resolves the phase-1/2 tension: nothing that adds parse-time state lands before the model rework completes; refusals and scorecard fixes are allowed ahead of it, which is what lets phase 1 see. * Round 2 numbers, and log the modern-interceptor-syntax work item * Round 3: the suite compiles with AOT enabled (4 fix PRs + 2 severity downgrades) * Scoreboard: all three TFM legs compile; local SQL Server available * Work item: [UnsafeAccessor] may lift the accessibility refusals (net8+) * Round 4: the honest scorecard says 53%, not 100% * Harvest the skip breakdown; flag the DAP016 corpus-shape decision * Round 5: first behavioral run - 84 failures, every one compiled clean * Note that aot-harness is deliberately local-only * Phase 2 log: approach and increments * Phase 2 log: increment 1 done * Phase 2 log: 3a done * Phase 2 log: 3b done * Phase 2 log: 3c-i done; two cached symbols remain * Phase 2 log: result-side plan done; one symbol left * Phase 2 log: cached model fully plain; only increment 4 remains * Phase 2 log: complete - PRs #187 + #188 * Phase 2 log: caching tests landed * Phase 2 log: readonly-field quirk fixed (#190) * Round 6: DAP051 + restructure takes interception to 68.1% * Round 6b: 612/760 behavioral; failures track interception growth honestly * DynamicParameters design: delegate to the bag; needs one small Dapper API * Round 7: DynamicParameters at 73.5%; First-pipeline drain divergence found * Round 7b: 612/762; every failure class maps to a planned feature * Interceptor-syntax migration: soft-target requirement recorded * Tokens: runtime-SQL design - per-factory memoized role scan * Record the feature-detection rule (DAP052) in the design note * Round 8: CommandBehavior parity fix (PR #196) * Round 8b: 616/762, suite loop 17s * Round 9: list expansion lands (PR #197), 638/762 * Round 10: custom parameters + the two bugs they uncovered, 658/793 * Round 11: dynamic-record fidelity, 672/793 * Sync with main; point parity rows at their open PRs The table lands on main via #186; from here each feature PR flips its own cells, so the table and the merge history cannot drift apart. Rows with an open PR say so, and the flip to a settled status is that PR's job.
…198) * Support ICustomQueryParameter members: the value adds itself A member implementing SqlMapper.ICustomQueryParameter (a TVP from AsTableValuedParameter being the common case, on a DataTable or an IEnumerable<SqlDataRecord>) previously bound as a single raw parameter; now the generated AddParameters calls value.AddParameter(command, name), which is the whole vanilla contract. A null reference-typed member throws with vanilla's exact message; a struct member gets no null test. The command cannot be prepared (no declared DbType). The list-expansion guards generalise to cover this: expandable and custom members are both 'self-binding' - they contribute an unknowable number of parameters - so the same parse-side rules apply (no command caching; skip multi-exec; skip alongside output/return parameters, which PostProcess reads back by index). The shared p local pre-scan learns the new member kind too. New CustomParameters fixture covers interface-typed, class and struct members, a custom member alongside a plain one, and both skips. * Tick the parity cells this lands

An expandable (enumerable) member previously bound as a single raw parameter, which fails at execution. The generated
AddParametersnow delegates toSqlMapper.PackListParameters, which owns the whole in-list contract: the SQL rewrite (empty-list and optimize-hint forms included), per-item parameters,DbStringitems, padding andstring_splitsettings, and provider array support.Design note for review:
PackListParametersis public but[Obsolete("intended for internal usage")]— I suppress CS0618 with a per-line pragma in the generated code. Calling the existing API means this works against every shipped Dapper, with no feature-detection diagnostic needed. The alternative is a fresh non-obsolete wrapper in Dapper, probe-gated with DAP052 like theDynamicParameters.AddParameters(IDbCommand)overload (DapperLib/Dapper#2225); happy to go that way instead if we'd rather not lean on an obsolete member from generated code.Guard rails, all parse-side so those call-sites stay on vanilla Dapper rather than misbehave:
CanPrepareis cleared;PostProcessreads those back by index, and expansion shifts every index after it.Also fixes a cosmetic CS0168: the shared
plocal inAddParametersis now only declared when some member still uses it.New
ListExpansionfixture covers the three working shapes and both skips; theTsqlTipsgolden moves off the raw bind, which was the broken behaviour. Verified against the Dapper test-suite harness: all the in-listParameterTests(PassInIntArray, Issue220, Issue192, the string_split group, TestListOfAnsiStrings) now pass on both SqlClient providers.
