UniMacro Class

In This Topic

Represents UniSQL macro definition.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Class UniMacro 
   Implements System.ICloneable

public class UniMacro : System.ICloneable

Remarks

The UniMacro class represents custom macro that can be used while executing UniSQL statements. For information on UniSQL and using macros please refer to article UniSQL.

Individual macros are accessed through UniConnection.Macros property of UniConnection. This property represents UniMacroCollection, whose items are used in UniSQL statements. Each UniConnection object has its own collection of macros.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to make table name dependent on current connection. This goal is achieved by declaring collection of two macros, one for Oracle and another for MySQL.

csharp

UniConnection conn = new UniConnection();
//Connecting to Oracle server through OraDirect .NET
conn.ConnectionString = "provider=OraDirect;Password=tiger;User Id=Scott;Host=ora920;";
//Define macros for tables dept
UniMacro mac = new UniMacro("tablename", "test.dept", "MySQL");
conn.Macros.Add(mac);
UniMacro mac2 = new UniMacro("tablename", "dept", "Oracle");
conn.Macros.Add(mac2);
//Define query that uses the macro
UniCommand cmd = new UniCommand("SELECT Count(*) FROM {tablename}");
cmd.Connection = conn;
conn.Open();
try {
  //Run the query and make sure it is executed correctly
  string response = cmd.ExecuteScalar().ToString();
  MessageBox.Show(response);
}
finally {        
  conn.Close();
}

Visual Basic

Dim conn As New UniConnection()
'Connecting to Oracle server through OraDirect .NET
conn.ConnectionString = "provider=OraDirect;Password=tiger;User Id=Scott;Host=ora920;"
'Define macro for table dept
Dim mac As New UniMacro("tablename", "test.dept", "MySQL")
conn.Macros.Add(mac)
Dim mac2 As New UniMacro("tablename", "dept", "Oracle")
conn.Macros.Add(mac2)
'Define query that uses the macro
Dim cmd As New UniCommand("SELECT Count(*) FROM {tablename}")
cmd.Connection = conn
conn.Open()
Try
  'Run the query and make sure it is executed correctly
  Dim response As String = cmd.ExecuteScalar().ToString()
  MessageBox.Show(response)
Finally
  conn.Close()
End Try
