OracleCommand Class
Represents an SQL statement or stored procedure to execute against a database. This class cannot be inherited.
Assembly: System.Data.OracleClient (in System.Data.OracleClient.dll)
The OracleCommand class provides the following methods for executing commands against a data source:
Item | Description |
|---|---|
Executes commands that return rows. | |
Executes an SQL statement against the Connection and returns the number of rows affected. | |
Executes commands such as SQL INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, and SET statements. | |
Retrieves a single value (for example, an aggregate value) from a database as a .NET Framework data type. | |
Retrieves a single value (for example, an aggregate value) from a database as an Oracle-specific data type. |
You can reset the CommandText property and reuse the OracleCommand object.
If execution of the command results in a fatal OracleException, the OracleConnection may close. However, the user can reopen the connection and continue.
Note: |
|---|
Unlike the Command object in the other .NET Framework data providers (SQL Server, OLE DB, and ODBC), the OracleCommand object does not support a CommandTimeout property. Setting a command timeout has no effect and the value returned is always zero. |
The following example uses the ExecuteReader method of OracleCommand, along with OracleDataReader and OracleConnection, to select rows from a table.
Public Sub ReadMyData(ByVal connectionString As String) Dim queryString As String = "SELECT EmpNo, DeptNo FROM Scott.Emp" Using connection As New OracleConnection(connectionString) Dim command As New OracleCommand(queryString, connection) connection.Open() Dim reader As OracleDataReader = command.ExecuteReader() Try While reader.Read() Console.WriteLine(reader.GetInt32(0) & ", " _ & reader.GetInt32(1)) End While Finally ' always call Close when done reading. reader.Close() End Try End Using End Sub
