Opens a Zoho CRM connection with the property settings specified by the ConnectionString.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

public override void Open()

'Declaration
 
Public Overrides Sub Open()

Remarks

The ZohoConnection draws an open connection from the connection pool if one is available. Otherwise, it establishes a new connection to the data source.

Note: If the ZohoConnection goes out of scope, the connection it represents does not close automatically. Therefore, you must explicitly close the connection by calling Close.

Opening an open connection does nothing.

Example

The following example creates a ZohoConnection, opens it, displays some of its properties, and then closes the connection.

csharp

public void CreateZohoConnection(string myConnString)
{
  ZohoConnection zohoConnection = new ZohoConnection(myConnString);
  zohoConnection.Open();
  MessageBox.Show("ServerVersion: " + zohoConnection.ServerVersion
    + "\nState: " + zohoConnection.State.ToString());
  zohoConnection.Close();
}

Visual Basic

Public Sub CreateZohoConnection(myConnString As String)
  Dim zohoConnection As New ZohoConnection(myConnString)
  zohoConnection.Open()
  MessageBox.Show("ServerVersion: " + zohoConnection.ServerVersion _
    + ControlChars.Cr + "State: " + zohoConnection.State.ToString())
  zohoConnection.Close()
End Sub

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
