Joining composite key entities causes ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected

Hi,
we are moving from Nhibernate to devart DoConnect for Oracle with Entity Framework Core on an legacy database (oracle 12c). Our query provider is automapper.
Actually we have a problem with a query joining a composite key entity.

Code: Select all

CREATE TABLE TblParameter
   (	"ParameterPosition" NUMBER(10,0), 
	"MesurementProgramGroupId" NUMBER(10,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
         ...) 

Code: Select all

CREATE TABLE TblBoxParameterToParameter" 
   (	"BoxParameterId" RAW(16) NOT NULL ENABLE, 
	"MesurementProgramGroupId" NUMBER(10,0) NOT NULL ENABLE, 
	"ParameterPosition" NUMBER(10,0) NOT NULL ENABLE, 
	"Position" NUMBER(9,0) NOT NULL ENABLE)
CONSTRAINT "TblBoxParameterToParameter_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("BoxParameterId", "MesurementProgramGroupId", "ParameterPosition") ENABLE,
CONSTRAINT "TblBoxParamToParam_FK" FOREIGN KEY ("MesurementProgramGroupId", "ParameterPosition")
	  REFERENCES TblParameter ("MesurementProgramGroupId", "ParameterPosition") ENABLE 
So a BoxParameterToParameter references a Parameter by its composite primary key ("MesurementProgramGroupId", "ParameterPosition").
Let AutoMapper join the entities results in the following sql query:

Code: Select all

SELECT "x".POSITION, 
     [b]"x".MesurementProgramGroupId IS NOT NULL OR "x".ParameterPosition IS NOT NULL[/b], 
     "x.Parameter".MesurementProgramGroupId,
      "x.Parameter".ParameterPosition, 
     ...
FROM TblBoxParameterToParameter "x"
INNER JOIN TblParameter "x.Parameter" ON ("x".MesurementProgramGroupId= "x.Parameter".ParameterPosition) AND ("x".ParameterPosition= "x.Parameter".MesurementProgramGroupId)
WHERE "x".BoxParameterId = :p__bpId_0
As you can see there is a confusing line

Code: Select all

"x".MesurementProgramGroupId IS NOT NULL OR "x".ParameterPosition IS NOT NULL
in this statement causing a ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected.

Can anyone tell me how to avoid this problem?

Thanks,
Butzei

Please upload a small test project with the corresponding DDL/DML script for reproducing to our ftp server (ftp://ftp.devart.com/, credentials: anonymous/anonymous ) or to any file exchange server so that we could download it from there.

So i found a workaround for this problem.
It seems as AutoMapper somehow adds the nullcheck if I let him figure out the best mapping for the join. So I manually configured the one to one join in the parents mapping configuration.

Thx
