SqlCeDataReader.Close Method
Closes the SqlCeDataReader object.
Namespace: System.Data.SqlServerCe
Assembly: System.Data.SqlServerCe (in System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Overrides Sub Close
'Usage
Dim instance As SqlCeDataReader
instance.Close()
public override void Close()
public:
virtual void Close() override
abstract Close : unit -> unit
override Close : unit -> unit
public override function Close()
Implements
Remarks
To use the associated SqlCeConnection for any other purpose, you first must explicitly call the Close method when you are through using the SqlCeDataReader; however, you can create multiple readers in the same connection.
Examples
The following example creates a SqlCeConnection, a SqlCeCommand, and a SqlCeDataReader. The example reads through the data and writes it out to the console. Finally, the example closes the SqlCeDataReader, then the SqlCeConnection.
Dim conn As SqlCeConnection = Nothing
Dim cmd As SqlCeCommand = Nothing
Dim rdr As SqlCeDataReader = Nothing
Try
' Open the connection and create a SQL command
'
conn = New SqlCeConnection("Data Source = AdventureWorks.sdf")
conn.Open()
cmd = New SqlCeCommand("SELECT * FROM DimEmployee", conn)
rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader()
' Iterate through the results
'
While rdr.Read()
Dim employeeID As Integer = rdr.GetInt32(0) ' or: rdr["EmployeeKey"];
Dim lastName As String = rdr.GetString(5) ' or: rdr["FirstName"];
End While
' Always dispose data readers and commands as soon as practicable
'
rdr.Close()
cmd.Dispose()
Finally
' Close the connection when no longer needed
'
conn.Close()
End Try
SqlCeConnection conn = null;
SqlCeCommand cmd = null;
SqlCeDataReader rdr = null;
try
{
// Open the connection and create a SQL command
//
conn = new SqlCeConnection("Data Source = AdventureWorks.sdf");
conn.Open();
cmd = new SqlCeCommand("SELECT * FROM DimEmployee", conn);
rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
// Iterate through the results
//
while (rdr.Read())
{
int employeeID = rdr.GetInt32(0); // or: rdr["EmployeeKey"];
string lastName = rdr.GetString(5); // or: rdr["FirstName"];
}
// Always dispose data readers and commands as soon as practicable
//
rdr.Close();
cmd.Dispose();
}
finally
{
// Close the connection when no longer needed
//
conn.Close();
}
