Example

In This Topic
    Close Method (OracleDataReader)
    In This Topic
    Closes the OracleDataReader object.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public Overrides Sub Close() 
    public override void Close()
    Remarks
    You must explicitly call the Close method after you have finished working with the OracleDataReader in order to use the associated OracleConnection for any other purpose.
    Example
    The following example creates a OracleConnection, a OracleCommand, and a OracleDataReader. The example reads through the data, writing it out to the console. Finally, the example closes the OracleDataReader, then the OracleConnection.
    public void ReadMyData(string myConnString)
    {
      string mySelectQuery = "SELECT DeptNo, DName FROM Test.Dept";
      OracleConnection myConnection = new OracleConnection(myConnString);
      OracleCommand myCommand = new OracleCommand(mySelectQuery,myConnection);
      myConnection.Open();
      OracleDataReader myReader;
      myReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader();
      // Always call Read before accessing data.
      while (myReader.Read()) {
        Console.WriteLine(myReader.GetInt32(0) + ", " + myReader.GetString(1));
      }
      // always call Close when done reading.
      myReader.Close();
      // Close the connection when done with it.
      myConnection.Close();
    }
    Public Sub ReadMyData(myConnString As String)
      Dim mySelectQuery As String = "SELECT DeptNo, DName FROM Test.Dept"
      Dim myConnection As New OracleConnection(myConnString)
      Dim myCommand As New OracleCommand(mySelectQuery, myConnection)
      myConnection.Open()
      Dim myReader As OracleDataReader
      myReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader()
      ' Always call Read before accessing data.
      While myReader.Read()
        Console.WriteLine(myReader.GetInt32(0).ToString() + ", " _
          + myReader.GetString(1))
      End While
      ' always call Close when done reading.
      myReader.Close()
      ' Close the connection when done with it.
      myConnection.Close()
    End Sub
