Devart.Common Namespace / DbScript Class
Members Example

DbScript Class
Serves to execute series of SQL statements separated by special symbols.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public MustInherit Class DbScript 
   Inherits System.ComponentModel.Component
   Implements System.ComponentModel.IComponentSystem.IDisposable 
 
Remarks

Use DbScript to consecutively execute several SQL statements stored in ScriptText property. DbScript allows to execute them all at once or one by one. You can use Progress event to monitor execution flow and Error to catch errors.

There are three ways to execute a script:

- using Execute method;

- using ExecuteNext method;

- using SqlStatement.SqlStatement.Execute method.

For more information refer to corresponding method.
Example
This sample demonstrates how to execute script and retrieve information about execution flow using Progress and Error events.

string script =
  "DROP TABLE DEPT;"+
  "CREATE TABLE DEPT ("+
  "  DEPTNO INT PRIMARY KEY,"+
  "  DNAME VARCHAR(14),"+
  "  LOC VARCHAR(13)"+
  ")WITH OIDS;"+
  "INSERT INTO DEPT VALUES (10,'ACCOUNTING','NEW YORK');"+
  "INSERT INTO DEPT VALUES (20,'RESEARCH','DALLAS');"+
  "INSERT INTO DEPT VALUES (30,'SALES','CHICAGO');"+
  "INSERT INTO DEPT VALUES (40,'OPERATIONS','BOSTON');"+
  "SELECT * FROM DEPT";
      PgSqlConnection pgConn = new PgSqlConnection(
          "host=server;database=test;user id=postgres;");
      PgSqlScript pgScript = new PgSqlScript(script,pgConn);
      pgScript.Progress += new Devart.Common.ScriptProgressEventHandler(OnProgress);
      pgScript.Error += new Devart.Common.ScriptErrorEventHandler(OnError);
      pgConn.Open();
      pgScript.Execute();
      pgConn.Close();
    }

  Console.WriteLine(e.Text);
  Console.WriteLine("  Failed.");
