Executing an Updategram by Using OLE DB (SQLXML 4.0)

  • 아티클

This topic provides a working sample of using OLE DB to execute an updategram.

Using ICommandStream to Set an XML Command

The OLE DB (version 2.6 or later) ICommandStream interface passes a command as a stream object, rather than as a string.

This interface allows a command to be in any encoding that the XML parser understands. When ICommand::Execute is called, the command text is read out of the stream directly and no conversion is required. Therefore, executing XML commands using ICommandStream interface is more efficient.

Setting XML as a Command Using ICommandStream and Retrieving the Results as an XML Document

The ICommandStream interface can be used to set XML documents as a command, and the results can be retrieved as an XML document.

Executing Templates with XPath Queries

The following XML template consisting of an XPath query is specified as a command using ICommandStream:

<ROOT xmlns:sql="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-sql">
<sql:xpath-query mapping-schema="Schema.xml">Person.Contact</sql:xpath-query>
</ROOT>

The XPath query in the template is executed against the following mapping schema:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<Schema xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-data" xmlns:dt="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:datatypes" xmlns:sql="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-sql">
<ElementType name="Person.Contact" >
<AttributeType name="ContactID" />
<AttributeType name="FirstName" />
<AttributeType name="LastName" />
<attribute type="ContactID" />
<attribute type="FirstName" />
<attribute type="LastName" />
</ElementType>
</Schema>

The query returns all of the employee elements. With default mapping, the <Person.Contact> element maps to the Person.Contact table in the AdventureWorks database.

To set XML as a command and retrieving result as an XML document

  1. Initialize and establish a connection to the database.

  2. Obtain the ICommandStream interface on ICommand.

  3. Set the necessary command properties. In this example, the provider-specific property SSPROP_STREAM_BASEPATH is set to the directory where the mapping schema and the template files are stored.

  4. Use ICommandStream::SetCommandStream to specify the command stream. In this example, the XML template being executed is read from a file. This is useful when you want to execute large XML templates.

  5. Execute the XML command using ICommand::Execute, requesting the IID_ISequentialStream interface ID.

  6. Process the result. In this example, the XML read from the stream is displayed on the screen.

Passing Parameters to Templates

This example shows how parameter values can be passed to XML commands. This XML template is specified as a command:

<ROOT xmlns:sql='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-sql'>
<sql:header><sql:param name='Title'>Mr.</sql:param></sql:header>
<sql:query>SELECT TOP 20 * FROM Person.Contact
WHERE Title = @Title
FOR XML AUTO</sql:query>
</ROOT>

The template includes an SQL query. The query requires a value for its parameter (@Title). If no parameter value is passed, the default value ("Mr.") is used.

In passing parameter values to a template, the parameter name and value both must be specified.
