C# - What Happens If Close A SqlConnection Before The SqlDataReader
Jun 2, 2009
What would happen if you call Close() on a SqlConnection object before you call Close() on a SqlDataReader using that connection?
Actually, what I really want to know is whether or not the order in which you Close them matters. Does calling SqlConnection.Close() completely close the connection, or will it remain open if you do not call Close() on a SqlDataReader using that connection?
I don't think I really understand how connection closing works.
I'm running a multithreaded application that connects to a database, the connections are closed when I'm done with them (and I dispose of all the threads). I've tried clearing the connection pools, setting pooling=false and I've used both .dispose and .close.
I get the error "cannot drop the database X because it is currently in use" if I try to drop the database I connected to after the connections have all been closed.
Below is my code: Dim comExecuteInsert As New SqlCommand Dim comm As New SqlConnection If (Not comm Is Nothing) Then comm = Nothing End If [Code] .....
The stored procedure creates temporary tables which it later drops and inserts data into tables existing in the database.
I'm currently in the process of building a text editor type program, and have run into a brick wall. I haven't done VB in years, so I may just need a little reminder on some things. I have coded everything so far as far as opening files, saving them, changing fonts, colors, etc. However, I'm looking to add a Close button to my menu strip that will just close the currently opened file, and not the entire program, while also ask the user if he/she would like to save before closing the file, and then if they select yes, it will show the save dialog, and if not, it will go ahead and close the currently opened item.
I am learning ADO.NET But it very hard for me... I dont understand why have got this compiler error:"Declaration expected" for the connection.Open().[code]
I'm having a problem with my global connection function. It used to be a readonly property but I changed it to a function because the code anaylsis engine was complaining about my property raising exceptions. The function is designed to take account of our offsite database mirroring system, so if it can't create a connection to the principal server it switches the connection string to the mirror server. This works fine in another project we have:
Public Shared Function Connection() As SqlConnection If String.IsNullOrEmpty(ActiveConnectionString) = True Then Throw New PropertyNotSetException("Cannot call Connection() before
I have a SqlConnection global variable in my proyect that it is always open (I wouldn't like to start a discussion about keep the connection open all the time or close it everytime a transaccion is executed).
This variable is sent to every class I need to execute a function or method. Instead of checking the connection in every single operation, is there any way to monitor the connection state in a centralized way ?
I'm trying to add transaction support to our database object.This object is a Remoting object. (this to ensure that on the Windows Client, no database connection is required.)Now I want to add support for transactions;Basically, a client will need to use it like this;
I am recently new to Visual Basic and am starting to learn some things i have managed to connect to the SQL Server and Insert rows to a table. But is there a way to be able to re-use an already existing connection ?My code below. I tried to create a class for the Connection object.
Imports System.Data.SqlClient Imports System.Data.Sql Public Class dbConnection
I asked a question earlier where I was told a simple way to "bind data to objects" is to just run a SqlConnection(connectionString). The response also included a comment saying I could get fancy with L2S and Entity Frameworks, so I looked deeper into those. It seems all you have to do with the DataContext object is point to the database. Why would SqlConnection be a benefit? What is the difference (or pros/cons) of using either one of these? Is one more "standard"? Is one more modern?
HTML SqlConnection connection = Getconnection() Anybody knows which reference should be added for Getconnection()? I am using 2008. Tried System.Data but...
This seems to be a great article by Scott Mitchell for creating syndicated feeds in ASP.NET 3.5. The problem for me is that it uses C# and Linq, which I'm not as sharp on at the current time.[URL]...Does anyone know where an example might exist for the System.ServiceModel.Syndication namespace that can produce a syndicated feed like this article using VB.NET and a SQLConnection object?
I've looked around and every example seems to be produced in C# and Linq (which is probably a testament to my need to learn them soon rather than later).
My code read a thousand files, and for each file a connection is made and open to check against a recordset in SQL. After 143 files, the application will stopped and thrown this exception regarding maximum pool size reached. What I don't understand is I'm closing the connection after every file is processed, could it be I'm doing it incorrectly?
Please see my code below. I was only able to make this work by setting max pool size = 3000 in the connection string, since closing the connection does not seem to work.[code...]
I have an asp.net web app. It has a shared class, and I want to have the connection string the same through out the site. My string is in my web config, but I don't want to type this all over the place:
I am preparing to deploy a web service that uses SqlConnection primarily as its means to get to the database, and I am adding some new methods that use a DataContext instead of thatand the default constructor and DBML file would use a connection string refering to my development machine (I believe...)
I'm not sure about this code. What I wanted to do is to count the number of records in the table that I selected and then add a value of 1 to it to generate a transaction number.
I'm not sure on how to count the number of rows in the reader. So far, this is my code.
I would like to pass two values to a stored procedure. I am using a sqlreader to export data to an excel sheet. I need the user to be able to select a range, rather that the whole sql table. the code works fine without adding parameters, but I need the user to be able to select a range, rather that the whole table.
Dim data As String = "" sqlCon.Open() sqlCmd = New SqlCommand(strSQL, sqlCon)
I have imports namespace System.Data.SqlClient.I just create object of SqlConnection,But error is there- 'SqlConnection' is ambiguous in the namespace 'System.Data.SqlClient'.
From my understanding, .Net will pool SqlConnection objects where the Connection String is the same by default. Will the connection still be pooled if I call the Dispose method? This question is asked under the context of an ASP .Net application that at times makes many hits to the database in a single PageLoad event. I want the connections to be pooled, but would like confirmation that Closing and Disposing of the connection once the data operation is complete does not interfere with .Net's handling of the connection pool.
