    Public Shadows Property Connection As MySqlConnection
    public new MySqlConnection Connection {get; set;}

    Property Value

    The connection to a data source. The default value is a null reference.
    Remarks
    MySqlLoader instance uses MySqlConnection during loading and for populating columns collection when CreateColumns method is called. For these operations MySqlLoader requires open connection.

    This property supports the InterForm technology.

    Example
    The following example creates a MySqlLoader, then populates Columns collection from table description, loads data, flushes the buffer and dispose internal MySqlLoader structures.
    public void LoadData(MySqlConnection myConnection)
    {
      myConnection.Open();
      myConnection.Database = "Test";
      MySqlLoader loader = new MySqlLoader();
      loader.Connection = myConnection;
      loader.TableName = "load_table";
      try
      {
        loader.CreateColumns();
        loader.Open();
        for (int i = 1; i <= 10000; i++)
        {
          loader.SetValue("id", i);
          loader.SetValue("char_field", "test string");
          loader.SetValue("date_field", DateTime.Now);
          loader.NextRow();
        }
        loader.Close();
      }
      finally
      {
        myConnection.Close();
      }
    }
    Public Sub LoadData(ByVal myConnection As MySqlConnection)
      myConnection.Open()
      myConnection.Database = "Test"
      Dim loader As MySqlLoader
      loader = New MySqlLoader
      loader.Connection = myConnection
      loader.TableName = "load_table"
      Try
        loader.CreateColumns()
        loader.Open()
        Dim i As Integer
        For i = 1 To 10000
          loader.SetValue("id", i)
          loader.SetValue("char_field", "test string")
          loader.SetValue("date_field", DateTime.Now)
          loader.NextRow()
        Next i
        loader.Close()
      Finally
        myConnection.Close()
      End Try
    End Sub
