sqlite - any improvements for this attach code (running multiple sql commands transactionally in sql
- by Greg
Hi,
Is this code solid? I've tried to use "using" etc. Basically a method to pass as sequenced list of SQL commands to be run against a Sqlite database.
I assume it is true that in sqlite by default all commands run in a single connection are handled transactionally? Is this true? i.e. I should not have to (and haven't got in the code at the moment) a BeginTransaction, or CommitTransaction.
It's using http://sqlite.phxsoftware.com/ as the sqlite ADO.net database provider.
private int ExecuteNonQueryTransactionally(List<string> sqlList)
{
int totalRowsUpdated = 0;
using (var conn = new SQLiteConnection(_connectionString))
{
// Open connection (one connection so should be transactional - confirm)
conn.Open();
// Apply each SQL statement passed in to sqlList
foreach (string s in sqlList)
{
using (var cmd = new SQLiteCommand(conn))
{
cmd.CommandText = s;
totalRowsUpdated = totalRowsUpdated + cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
}
}
return totalRowsUpdated;
}
