LINQ to SQL SubmitChangess() progress
- by Emir
I'm using LINQ to SQLto import old DBF files into MSSQL.
I'm reading all rows and adding them to database using ctx.MyTable.InsertOnSubmit(row)
After reading phase is completed I have around 100 000 pending inserts.
ctx.SubmitChanges() naturally is taking a long time.
Is there any way to track progress of the ctx.submitchanges()?
Can ctx.Log somehow be used for this purpose?
Update: Is it possible to use ctx.GetChangeSet().Inserts.Count and track insert statements using the Log?
Dividing ctx.SubmitChanges() into smaller chunks is not working for me, because I need transaction, all or nothing.
Update 2:
I've found nice class ActionTextWriter using which I will try to count inserts.
