Querying with the DataAdapter
The CData ADO.NET Provider for Outreach implements two ADO.NET interfaces you can use to retrieve data from Outreach: OutreachDataAdapter and OutreachDataReader objects. Whereas OutreachDataAdapter objects retrieve a single result set of all the data that matches a query, OutreachDataReader objects fetch data in subset increments as needed.
Using the OutreachDataAdapter
Use the adapter's Fill method to retrieve data from the data source. An empty DataTable instance is passed as an argument to the Fill method. When the method returns, the DataTable instance is populated with the queried data. Note that the OutreachDataAdapter is slower than the OutreachDataReader because the Fill method needs to retrieve all data from the data source before returning.
The following example selects the Id and Column1 columns of the SampleTable_1 table:
C#
string connectionString = "InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;"; using (OutreachConnection connection = new OutreachConnection(connectionString)) { OutreachDataAdapter dataAdapter = new OutreachDataAdapter( "SELECT Id, Column1 FROM SampleTable_1", connection); DataTable table = new DataTable(); dataAdapter.Fill(table); Console.WriteLine("Contents of SampleTable_1."); foreach (DataRow row in table.Rows) { Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", row["Id"], row["Column1"]); } }
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As String = "InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;" Using connection As New OutreachConnection(connectionString) Dim dataAdapter As New OutreachDataAdapter("SELECT Id, Column1 FROM SampleTable_1", connection) Dim table As New DataTable() dataAdapter.Fill(table) Console.WriteLine("Contents of SampleTable_1.") For Each row As DataRow In table.Rows Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", row("Id"), row("Column1")) Next End Using
