成熟したクラス ライブラリが完全に完成しており、それらを直接使用するだけで、時間と労力を節約できるため、データベース操作クラスを自分で記述する必要はありません。

この記事では、Microsoft の公式プログラム PetShop4.0 の SqlHelper クラスを紹介します。まず、PetShop が Microsoft の .Net エンタープライズ システム開発機能を実証するために使用されている例について簡単に説明します。

では、SqlHelper にはどのようなメソッドがカプセル化されているのでしょうか?

そこにはたくさんの関数がありますが、最も一般的に使用されるものは追加、削除、変更、確認です。よく使用されるいくつかの関数を見てみましょう:

1.ExecuteNonQuery は追加、削除、変更を実行します
2. ExecuteReader でクエリを実行します
3.ExecuteScalar 最初の行と最初の列に戻ります

使い方の紹介

Web.config 設定

<connectionStrings>
    <add name="ConnectionString" connectionString="server=127.0.0.1;uid=sa;pwd=ok;database=PetShop;Max Pool Size =512; Min Pool Size=0; Connection Lifetime = 300;packet size=1000;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

関数の呼び出し方法

sql = "UPDATE Student set Name = @Name WHERE Id = @Id";
SqlHelper.ExecuteNonQuery(CommandType.Text, sql, new SqlParameter[]{
 new SqlParameter("@Name", name),
 new SqlParameter("@Id", id)
});

この方法では、呼び出しがよりシンプルで柔軟になります
