Sql connection helper
Hi everyone,
This is my first post here, so I will start with an very simple and quite useful example of the SQL connection object helper. When using ado.net it basically helps reducing amount of code needed to instantiate connection.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 | public class Connection { public Connection() { } public static SqlConnection Current { get { SqlConnection con = null ; if (HttpContext.Current.Session[ "sqlconnection" ] == null ) { HttpContext.Current.Session[ "sqlconnection" ] = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings[ "connectionString" ].ToString()); } con = (SqlConnection)HttpContext.Current.Session[ "sqlconnection" ]; if (con.State != ConnectionState.Open) { con.Open(); } return con; } } } |
All you need to do is to use Current property of that object to create connection instance or reuse it if already created eg.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand( "getData" , Connection.Current)) { cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; using (SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader()) { while (reader.Read()) { //to do get data } } } |
