GetUpdateCommand(Boolean) method

Returns the generated SACommand object that performs UPDATE operations on the database when an Update is called.

Syntax
Visual Basic

Public Function GetUpdateCommand( _
   ByVal useColumnsForParameterNames As Boolean _
) As SACommand
C#

public SACommand GetUpdateCommand(
   bool useColumnsForParameterNames
);
Parameters
  • useColumnsForParameterNames   If true, generate parameter names matching column names if possible. If false, generate @p1, @p2, and so on.

Return value

The automatically generated SACommand object required to perform updates.

Remarks

The GetUpdateCommand method returns the SACommand object to be executed, so it may be useful for informational or troubleshooting purposes.

You can also use GetUpdateCommand as the basis of a modified command. For example, you might call GetUpdateCommand and modify the CommandTimeout value, and then explicitly set that value on the SADataAdapter.

SQL statements are first generated when the application calls Update or GetUpdateCommand. After the SQL statement is first generated, the application must explicitly call RefreshSchema if it changes the statement in any way. Otherwise, the GetUpdateCommand will be still be using information from the previous statement, which might not be correct.
