Does Dapper support SQL 2008 Table-Valued Parameters 2?

c# dapper model-view-controller orm

Question

I know that dapper can support TVF, but how do you send extra parameters along with TVF (without adding it to the IntDynamicParam class)? See the below example from Tests.cs, i have modified to add the extra parameter:

connection.Execute("CREATE TYPE int_list_type AS TABLE (n int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY)");
connection.Execute("CREATE PROC get_ints @x int, @ints int_list_type READONLY AS select * from @ints");

I tried the following but got errors (No mapping exists from object type SqlMapper.Tests+IntDynamicParam to a known managed provider native type.):

var p = new DynamicParameters();
p.Add("x", 4);
p.Add("ints",new IntDynamicParam(new int[] { 1, 2, 3 }));

var nums = connection.Query<int>("get_ints", p).ToList();

Thank you for the reply Sam, but the question was a little different. I want to know how to pass in another variable along with the tuple. See the modified SP below:

CREATE TYPE int_tuple_list_type AS TABLE (n int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, n2 int)

CREATE PROC get_int_tuples 
  @someVar varchar(10),
  @ints int_tuple_list_type READONLY
AS select * from @ints

There is very little magic about IDynamicParameters all you need to worry about is implementing AddParameters on the ready to run open IDbCommand.

Say you wanted a tuple of ints, you could implement the following:

CREATE TYPE int_tuple_list_type 
     AS TABLE (n int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, n2 int)
CREATE PROC get_int_tuples @ints 
     int_tuple_list_type READONLY AS select * from @ints

Followed by:

class TupleIntDynamicParam : Dapper.SqlMapper.IDynamicParameters
{
    IEnumerable<int> tuples;
    public IntDynamicParam(IEnumerable<Tuple<int,int>> tuples)
    {
        this.tuples= tuples;
    }

    public void AddParameters(IDbCommand command)
    {
        var sqlCommand = (SqlCommand)command;
        sqlCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

        List<Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlDataRecord> number_list = 
           new List<Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlDataRecord>();

        // Create an SqlMetaData object that describes our table type.
        Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlMetaData[] tvp_definition = { 
          new Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlMetaData("n", SqlDbType.Int), 
          new Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlMetaData("n2", SqlDbType.Int) };

        foreach (int n in tuples)
        {
            // Create a new record, using the metadata array above.
            Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlDataRecord rec = 
                new Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlDataRecord(tvp_definition);
            rec.SetInt32(0, n.Item1);
            rec.SetInt32(1, n.Item2);
            number_list.Add(rec);      // Add it to the list.
        }

        // Add the table parameter.
        var p = sqlCommand.Parameters.Add("ints", SqlDbType.Structured);
        p.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input;
        p.TypeName = "int_tuple_list_type";
        p.Value = number_list;

    }
}

Then you can pass in tuples with:

var nums = connection.Query("get_int_tuples", 
      new TupleIntDynamicParam (new Tuple<int,int>[] 
      { 
           Tuple.Create(1,2), Tuple.Create(2,3) 
      })).ToList();
