Open Method (FreshBooksConnection)

On this page

Opens a FreshBooks connection with the property settings specified by the ConnectionString.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#


'Declaration Public Overrides Sub Open()


public override void Open()

Remarks

The FreshBooksConnection draws an open connection from the connection pool if one is available. Otherwise, it establishes a new connection to the data source.

Note: If the FreshBooksConnection goes out of scope, the connection it represents does not close automatically. Therefore, you must explicitly close the connection by calling Devart.Common.DbConnectionBase.Close.

Opening an open connection does nothing.

Example

The following example creates a FreshBooksConnection, opens it, displays some of its properties, and then closes the connection.

csharp


public void CreateFreshBooksConnection(string myConnString) { FreshBooksConnection freshbooksConnection = new FreshBooksConnection(myConnString); freshbooksConnection.Open(); MessageBox.Show("ServerVersion: " + freshbooksConnection.ServerVersion + "\nState: " + freshbooksConnection.State.ToString()); freshbooksConnection.Close(); }

public void CreateFreshBooksConnection(string myConnString)
{
  FreshBooksConnection freshbooksConnection = new FreshBooksConnection(myConnString);
  freshbooksConnection.Open();
  MessageBox.Show("ServerVersion: " + freshbooksConnection.ServerVersion
    + "\nState: " + freshbooksConnection.State.ToString());
  freshbooksConnection.Close();
}

Visual Basic


Public Sub CreateFreshBooksConnection(myConnString As String) Dim freshbooksConnection As New FreshBooksConnection(myConnString) freshbooksConnection.Open() MessageBox.Show("ServerVersion: " + freshbooksConnection.ServerVersion _ + ControlChars.Cr + "State: " + freshbooksConnection.State.ToString()) freshbooksConnection.Close() End Sub

Public Sub CreateFreshBooksConnection(myConnString As String)
  Dim freshbooksConnection As New FreshBooksConnection(myConnString)
  freshbooksConnection.Open()
  MessageBox.Show("ServerVersion: " + freshbooksConnection.ServerVersion _
    + ControlChars.Cr + "State: " + freshbooksConnection.State.ToString())
  freshbooksConnection.Close()
End Sub
