25.2.3.4.7. UpdateCommand
25.2.3.4.8. SelectCommand

Represents a set of data commands and a database connection that are used to fill a dataset and update a MySQL database. This class cannot be inherited.

The MySQLDataAdapter, serves as a bridge between a System.Data.DataSet and MySQL for retrieving and saving data. The MySQLDataAdapter provides this bridge by mapping DbDataAdapter.Fill, which changes the data in the DataSet to match the data in the data source, and DbDataAdapter.Update, which changes the data in the data source to match the data in the DataSet, using the appropriate SQL statements against the data source.

When the MySQLDataAdapter fills a DataSet, it will create the necessary tables and columns for the returned data if they do not already exist. However, primary key information will not be included in the implicitly created schema unless the System.Data.MissingSchemaAction property is set to System.Data.MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey. You may also have the MySQLDataAdapter create the schema of the DataSet, including primary key information, before filling it with data using System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.FillSchema.

MySQLDataAdapter is used in conjunction with MySqlConnection and MySqlCommand to increase performance when connecting to a MySQL database.

The MySQLDataAdapter also includes the MySqlDataAdapter.SelectCommand, MySqlDataAdapter.InsertCommand, MySqlDataAdapter.DeleteCommand, MySqlDataAdapter.UpdateCommand, and DataAdapter.TableMappings properties to facilitate the loading and updating of data.

When an instance of MySQLDataAdapter is created, the read/write properties are set to initial values. For a list of these values, see the MySQLDataAdapter constructor.

Note.  Please be aware that the DataColumn class in .NET 1.0 and 1.1 does not allow columns with type of UInt16, UInt32, or UInt64 to be autoincrement columns. If you plan to use autoincremement columns with MySQL, you should consider using signed integer columns.

Examples

The following example creates a MySqlCommand and a MySqlConnection. The MySqlConnection is opened and set as the MySqlCommand.Connection for the MySqlCommand. The example then calls MySqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery, and closes the connection. To accomplish this, the ExecuteNonQuery is passed a connection string and a query string that is a SQL INSERT statement.

Visual Basic example: 

Public Function SelectRows(dataSet As DataSet, connection As String, query As String) As DataSet
    Dim conn As New MySqlConnection(connection)
    Dim adapter As New MySqlDataAdapter()
    adapter.SelectCommand = new MySqlCommand(query, conn)
    adapter.Fill(dataset)
    Return dataset
End Function

C# example: 

public DataSet SelectRows(DataSet dataset,string connection,string query) 
{
    MySqlConnection conn = new MySqlConnection(connection);
    MySqlDataAdapter adapter = new MySqlDataAdapter();
    adapter.SelectCommand = new MySqlCommand(query, conn);
    adapter.Fill(dataset);
    return dataset;
}

    da.DeleteCommand.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 5, "id").SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Original
End Sub

C# example: 

public static void CreateSqlDataAdapter() 
{
    MySqlDataAdapter da = new MySqlDataAdapter("SELECT id, name FROM mytable", "Data Source=localhost;database=test");
    MySqlConnection conn = da.SelectCommand.Connection;
    da.MissingSchemaAction = MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey;
   
    da.InsertCommand = new MySqlCommand("INSERT INTO mytable (id, name) " +
                                            "VALUES (?id, ?name)", conn);
    da.UpdateCommand = new MySqlCommand("UPDATE mytable SET id=?id, name=?name " +
                                            "WHERE id=?oldId", conn);
    da.DeleteCommand = new MySqlCommand("DELETE FROM mytable WHERE id=?id", conn);

    da.DeleteCommand.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 5, "id").SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Original;
}
25.2.3.4.5. DeleteCommand

Gets or sets a SQL statement or stored procedure used to delete records from the data set.

Value: A MySqlCommand used during System.Data.Common.DataAdapter.Update to delete records in the database that correspond to deleted rows in the DataSet.

During System.Data.Common.DataAdapter.Update, if this property is not set and primary key information is present in the DataSet, the DeleteCommand can be generated automatically if you set the SelectCommand property and use the MySqlCommandBuilder. Then, any additional commands that you do not set are generated by the MySqlCommandBuilder. This generation logic requires key column information to be present in the DataSet.

When DeleteCommand is assigned to a previously created MySqlCommand, the MySqlCommand is not cloned. The DeleteCommand maintains a reference to the previously created MySqlCommand object.

Examples

The following example creates a MySqlDataAdapter and sets the SelectCommand and DeleteCommand properties. It assumes you have already created a MySqlConnection object.

Visual Basic example: 

Public Shared Function CreateCustomerAdapter(conn As MySqlConnection) As MySqlDataAdapter 
  
  Dim da As MySqlDataAdapter = New MySqlDataAdapter()
  Dim cmd As MySqlCommand
  Dim parm As MySqlParameter
  ' Create the SelectCommand.
  cmd = New MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id=?id AND name=?name", conn)
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15)
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15)
  da.SelectCommand = cmd
  ' Create the DeleteCommand.
  cmd = New MySqlCommand("DELETE FROM mytable WHERE id=?id", conn)
  parm = cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 5, "id")
  parm.SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Original
  da.DeleteCommand = cmd
  Return da
End Function

C# example: 

public static MySqlDataAdapter CreateCustomerAdapter(MySqlConnection conn)
{
  MySqlDataAdapter da = new MySqlDataAdapter();
  MySqlCommand cmd;
  MySqlParameter parm;
  // Create the SelectCommand.
  cmd = new MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id=?id AND name=?name", conn);
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15);
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15);
  da.SelectCommand = cmd;
  // Create the DeleteCommand.
  cmd = new MySqlCommand("DELETE FROM mytable WHERE id=?id", conn);
  parm = cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 5, "id");
  parm.SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Original;
  da.DeleteCommand = cmd;
  return da;
}
25.2.3.4.6. InsertCommand

Gets or sets a SQL statement or stored procedure used to insert records into the data set.

Value: A MySqlCommand used during System.Data.Common.DataAdapter.Update to insert records into the database that correspond to new rows in the DataSet.

During System.Data.Common.DataAdapter.Update, if this property is not set and primary key information is present in the DataSet, the InsertCommand can be generated automatically if you set the SelectCommand property and use the MySqlCommandBuilder. Then, any additional commands that you do not set are generated by the MySqlCommandBuilder. This generation logic requires key column information to be present in the DataSet.

When InsertCommand is assigned to a previously created MySqlCommand, the MySqlCommand is not cloned. The InsertCommand maintains a reference to the previously created MySqlCommand object.

Note.  If execution of this command returns rows, these rows may be added to the DataSet depending on how you set the MySqlCommand.UpdatedRowSource property of the MySqlCommand object.

Examples

The following example creates a MySqlDataAdapter and sets the SelectCommand and InsertCommand properties. It assumes you have already created a MySqlConnection object.

Visual Basic example: 

Public Shared Function CreateCustomerAdapter(conn As MySqlConnection) As MySqlDataAdapter 
  
  Dim da As MySqlDataAdapter = New MySqlDataAdapter()
  Dim cmd As MySqlCommand
  Dim parm As MySqlParameter
  ' Create the SelectCommand.
  cmd = New MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id=?id AND name=?name", conn)
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15)
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15)
  da.SelectCommand = cmd
  ' Create the InsertCommand.
  cmd = New MySqlCommand("INSERT INTO mytable (id,name) VALUES (?id, ?name)", conn)
  cmd.Parameters.Add( "?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "id" )
  cmd.Parameters.Add( "?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "name" )  
  da.InsertCommand = cmd
  
  Return da
End Function

C# example: 

public static MySqlDataAdapter CreateCustomerAdapter(MySqlConnection conn)
{
  MySqlDataAdapter da = new MySqlDataAdapter();
  MySqlCommand cmd;
  MySqlParameter parm;
  // Create the SelectCommand.
  cmd = new MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id=?id AND name=?name", conn);
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15);
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15);
  da.SelectCommand = cmd;
  // Create the InsertCommand.
  cmd = new MySqlCommand("INSERT INTO mytable (id,name) VALUES (?id,?name)", conn);
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "id" );
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "name" );
  
  da.InsertCommand = cmd;  
  return da;
}
25.2.3.4.7. UpdateCommand

Gets or sets a SQL statement or stored procedure used to updated records in the data source.

Value: A MySqlCommand used during System.Data.Common.DataAdapter.Update to update records in the database with data from the DataSet.

During System.Data.Common.DataAdapter.Update, if this property is not set and primary key information is present in the DataSet, the UpdateCommand can be generated automatically if you set the SelectCommand property and use the MySqlCommandBuilder. Then, any additional commands that you do not set are generated by the MySqlCommandBuilder. This generation logic requires key column information to be present in the DataSet.

When UpdateCommand is assigned to a previously created MySqlCommand, the MySqlCommand is not cloned. The UpdateCommand maintains a reference to the previously created MySqlCommand object.

Note.  If execution of this command returns rows, these rows may be merged with the DataSet depending on how you set the MySqlCommand.UpdatedRowSource property of the MySqlCommand object.

Examples

The following example creates a MySqlDataAdapter and sets the SelectCommand and UpdateCommand properties. It assumes you have already created a MySqlConnection object.

Visual Basic example: 

Public Shared Function CreateCustomerAdapter(conn As MySqlConnection) As MySqlDataAdapter 
  
  Dim da As MySqlDataAdapter = New MySqlDataAdapter()
  Dim cmd As MySqlCommand
  Dim parm As MySqlParameter
  ' Create the SelectCommand.
  cmd = New MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id=?id AND name=?name", conn)
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15)
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15)
  da.SelectCommand = cmd
  ' Create the UpdateCommand.
  cmd = New MySqlCommand("UPDATE mytable SET id=?id, name=?name WHERE id=?oldId", conn)
  cmd.Parameters.Add( "?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "id" )
  cmd.Parameters.Add( "?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "name" )  
  
  parm = cmd.Parameters.Add("?oldId", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "id")
  parm.SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Original
  
  da.UpdateCommand = cmd
  
  Return da
End Function

C# example: 

public static MySqlDataAdapter CreateCustomerAdapter(MySqlConnection conn)
{
  MySqlDataAdapter da = new MySqlDataAdapter();
  MySqlCommand cmd;
  MySqlParameter parm;
  // Create the SelectCommand.
  cmd = new MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id=?id AND name=?name", conn);
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15);
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15);
  da.SelectCommand = cmd;
  // Create the UpdateCommand.
  cmd = new MySqlCommand("UPDATE mytable SET id=?id, name=?name WHERE id=?oldId", conn);
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "id" );
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "name" );
  
  parm = cmd.Parameters.Add( "?oldId", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "id" );
  parm.SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Original;
  
  da.UpdateCommand = cmd;  
  return da;
}
25.2.3.4.8. SelectCommand

Gets or sets a SQL statement or stored procedure used to select records in the data source.

Value: A MySqlCommand used during System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.Fill to select records from the database for placement in the DataSet.

When SelectCommand is assigned to a previously created MySqlCommand, the MySqlCommand is not cloned. The SelectCommand maintains a reference to the previously created MySqlCommand object.

If the SelectCommand does not return any rows, no tables are added to the DataSet, and no exception is raised.

Examples

The following example creates a MySqlDataAdapter and sets the SelectCommand and InsertCommand properties. It assumes you have already created a MySqlConnection object.

Visual Basic example: 

Public Shared Function CreateCustomerAdapter(conn As MySqlConnection) As MySqlDataAdapter 
  
  Dim da As MySqlDataAdapter = New MySqlDataAdapter()
  Dim cmd As MySqlCommand
  Dim parm As MySqlParameter
  ' Create the SelectCommand.
  cmd = New MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id=?id AND name=?name", conn)
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15)
  cmd.Parameters.Add("?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15)
  da.SelectCommand = cmd
  ' Create the InsertCommand.
  cmd = New MySqlCommand("INSERT INTO mytable (id,name) VALUES (?id, ?name)", conn)
  cmd.Parameters.Add( "?id", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "id" )
  cmd.Parameters.Add( "?name", MySqlDbType.VarChar, 15, "name" )  
  da.InsertCommand = cmd
  
  Return da
End Function

C# example: 

public static MySqlDataAdapter CreateCustomerAdapter(MySqlConnection conn)
{
  MySqlDataAdapter da = new MySqlDataAdapter();
  MySqlCommand cmd;
  MySqlParameter parm;
  // Create the SelectCommand.
  cmd = new MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id=?id AND name=?name", conn);
