    DbConnectionBase Class
    In This Topic
    Represents an open connection to a server.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public MustInherit Class DbConnectionBase 
       Inherits System.Data.Common.DbConnection
       Implements System.ComponentModel.IComponentSystem.Data.IDbConnectionSystem.IDisposable 
    Remarks
    The abstract DbConnectionBase class implements some of DbConnectionBase functionality that is DBMS-independent.
    Example
    The following sample demonstrates how using base classes helps to create database-independent code.
    public void PrintDept(DbConnectionBase myConnection) {
            DbCommandBase myCommand = (DbCommandBase)myConnection.CreateCommand();
            myCommand.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM Test.Dept";
            myConnection.Open();
            DbDataReader myReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader();
            try {
                    while (myReader.Read()) {
                            Console.WriteLine(myReader.GetInt32(0) + " " + 
                                    myReader.GetString(1) + " " + myReader.GetString(2));
                    }
            }
            finally {
                    myReader.Close();
                    myConnection.Close();
            }
    }
    Public Sub PrintDept(ByVal myConnection As DbConnectionBase)
            Dim myCommand As DbCommandBase = myConnection.CreateCommand()
            myCommand.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM Test.Dept"
            myConnection.Open()
            Dim myReader As DbDataReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader()
            Try
                    While myReader.Read()
                            Console.WriteLine(String.Concat(myReader.GetInt32(0), " ", _
                                    myReader.GetString(1), " ", myReader.GetString(2)))
                    End While
            Finally
                    myReader.Close()
                    myConnection.Close()
            End Try
    End Sub
