Description
Problem was that we were not correctly compensating for type differences between parameter value and the DbParameter type (determined from type mapping). This can happen when the parameter is explicitly typed as the underlying type, but in the query the type is inferred from other side of binary expression etc.
Fix is to detect the case when expected parameter value is Enum, but the actual type is the underlying type and convert the value back to the enum type, just like we do for constants.
Customer Impact
Error for some queries using enum parameters. There are several workarounds, depending on which "flavor" of the issue customer experiences, but it is hard to understand which workaround works for which case.
How found
Reported by multiple customers.
Test coverage
We have added test to cover this scenario.
Regression?
No.
Risk
Low. Fix only affects queries with enums, also the logic in the fix has already been used for case with constants. Fix applies the same logic to parameters.
