Devart.Data.Oracle Namespace / OracleDataAdapter Class / SelectCommand Property
Example

SelectCommand Property (OracleDataAdapter)
Gets or sets an Oracle statement used to select records in the data source.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Shadows Property SelectCommand As OracleCommand
 

Property Value

A OracleCommand that is used during a fill operation to select records from the data source for placement in the System.Data.DataSet.
Remarks
When SelectCommand is assigned to a previously created OracleCommand, the OracleCommand is not cloned. Instead, the SelectCommand maintains a reference to the previously created OracleCommand object.

If SelectCommand does not return any rows, no tables are added to the System.Data.DataSet, and no exception is raised.

This property supports the InterForm technology.

Example
The following example creates a OracleDataAdapter, sets some of its properties, retrieves data from a table, and displays it.
public void CreateDataAdapter(OracleConnection myConnection)
{
  OracleDataAdapter myAdapter = new OracleDataAdapter();
  myAdapter.MissingSchemaAction = MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey;
  DataSet myDataSet = new DataSet();
  myAdapter.SelectCommand = new OracleCommand("SELECT DeptNo, DName FROM Test.Dept", myConnection);
  myAdapter.Fill(myDataSet,"Dept");
  //Get all data from all tables within the dataset
  foreach(DataTable myTable in myDataSet.Tables)
  {
    foreach(DataRow myRow in myTable.Rows)
    {
      foreach (DataColumn myColumn in myTable.Columns)
      {
        Console.Write(myRow[myColumn]+"\t");
      }
      Console.WriteLine();
    }
    Console.WriteLine();
  }
}
Public Sub CreateDataAdapter(ByVal myConnection As OracleConnection)
  Dim myAdapter As OracleDataAdapter = New OracleDataAdapter
  myAdapter.MissingSchemaAction = MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey
  Dim myDataSet As DataSet = New DataSet
  myAdapter.SelectCommand = New OracleCommand("SELECT DeptNo, DName FROM Test.Dept", myConnection)
  myAdapter.Fill(myDataSet, "Dept")
  Dim myTable As DataTable
  Dim myRow As DataRow
  Dim myColumn As DataColumn
  ' Get all data from all tables within the dataset
  For Each myTable In myDataSet.Tables
    For Each myRow In myTable.Rows
      For Each myColumn In myTable.Columns
        Console.Write(myRow(myColumn) & Chr(9))
      Next myColumn
      Console.WriteLine()
    Next myRow
    Console.WriteLine()
  Next myTable
End Sub
