Article ID: 309361 - Last Review: July 15, 2004 - Revision: 2.2 How To Use a DataReader Against an Oracle Stored Procedure in Visual C# .NETThis article was previously published under Q309361 On This PageSUMMARY
This step-by-step article uses the DataReader object to retrieve data from an Oracle stored procedure. You can use the DataReader to retrieve a read-only, forward-only stream of data from a database. Using the DataReader can increase application performance and reduce system overhead because only one row is kept in memory. Requirements
The following list outlines the recommended hardware, software, network infrastructure, and service packs that you need:
- Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, or Windows NT 4.0 Server
- Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
This article assumes that you are familiar with the following topics:
- Visual C# .NET
- ADO.NET fundamentals and syntax
Create the Oracle Tables
This sample uses tables that are defined in the Oracle Scott/Tiger schema. The Oracle Scott/Tiger schema is included with the default Oracle installation.
If this schema does not exist, you must run the following table and insert scripts for the tables:
CREATE TABLE DEPT
(DEPTNO NUMBER(2,0) NOT NULL,
DNAME VARCHAR2(14) NULL,
LOC VARCHAR2(13) NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (DEPTNO)
);
INSERT INTO Dept VALUES(11,'Sales','Texas');
INSERT INTO Dept VALUES(22,'Accounting','Washington');
INSERT INTO Dept VALUES(33,'Finance','Maine');
CREATE TABLE EMP
(EMPNO NUMBER(4,0) NOT NULL,
ENAME VARCHAR2(10) NULL,
JOB VARCHAR2(9) NULL,
MGR NUMBER(4,0) NULL,
SAL NUMBER(7,2) NULL,
COMM NUMBER(7,2) NULL,
DEPTNO NUMBER(2,0) NULL,
FOREIGN KEY (DEPTNO) REFERENCES DEPT(DEPTNO),
PRIMARY KEY (EMPNO)
);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(123,'Bob','Sales',555,35000,12,11);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(321,'Sue','Finance',555,42000,12,33);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(234,'Mary','Account',555,33000,12,22);
Create the Oracle Packages
Create the following Oracle package on the Oracle server:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE curspkg_join AS
TYPE t_cursor IS REF CURSOR ;
Procedure open_join_cursor1 (n_EMPNO IN NUMBER, io_cursor IN OUT t_cursor);
END curspkg_join;
/
Create the following Oracle package body on the Oracle server:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY curspkg_join AS
Procedure open_join_cursor1 (n_EMPNO IN NUMBER, io_cursor IN OUT t_cursor)
IS
v_cursor t_cursor;
BEGIN
IF n_EMPNO <> 0
THEN
OPEN v_cursor FOR
SELECT EMP.EMPNO, EMP.ENAME, DEPT.DEPTNO, DEPT.DNAME
FROM EMP, DEPT
WHERE EMP.DEPTNO = DEPT.DEPTNO
AND EMP.EMPNO = n_EMPNO;
ELSE
OPEN v_cursor FOR
SELECT EMP.EMPNO, EMP.ENAME, DEPT.DEPTNO, DEPT.DNAME
FROM EMP, DEPT
WHERE EMP.DEPTNO = DEPT.DEPTNO;
END IF;
io_cursor := v_cursor;
END open_join_cursor1;
END curspkg_join;
/
Create the Visual C# .NET Application- Create a new Visual C# Windows Application project. Form1 is added to the project by default.
- Add the following code to the top of the Code window:
- Add the following code to the Form_Load event of Form1:
OleDbConnection Oraclecon = new OleDbConnection("Provider=MSDAORA.1;Password=tiger;"
+ "User ID=scott;Data Source=OracleServer;Persist Security Info=True");
Oraclecon.Open();
OleDbCommand myCMD = new OleDbCommand
("{call curspkg_join.open_join_cursor1(?, {resultset 0, io_cursor})}", Oraclecon);
myCMD.Parameters.Add("ID", OleDbType.Numeric, 4).Value = 0;
OleDbDataReader myReader;
myReader = myCMD.ExecuteReader();
int x;
int count;
count = 0;
while (myReader.Read())
{
for (x = 0; x <= myReader.FieldCount - 1; x++)
Console.Write(myReader.GetValue(x) + " ");
Console.WriteLine();
count += 1;
}
MessageBox.Show(count + " Rows Returned.");
myReader.Close();
Oraclecon.Close();
- Modify the OleDbConnection string as appropriate for your environment.
- Press the F5 key to compile and run the application. Notice that the data from the Oracle stored procedure appears in the Debug window, and a row count appears in a message box.
Additional Information
Notice that the code loops through the DataReader:
This is because the DataReader reads only one line at a time. REFERENCESFor additional information%1, click the article number%2 below

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
