Database Constructor

Initializes a new instance of the Database class.

Namespace:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo
Assembly:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo (in Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub New
'Usage
Dim instance As New Database()
public Database()
public:
Database()
new : unit -> Database
public function Database()

Remarks

The default constructor initializes any fields to their default values.

You will have to specify which server is the parent of the database before you can create a database.

Examples

VB

Dim srv As Server
srv = New Server()

'Create a new database by using the default constructor.
Dim db As Database
db = New Database
db.Name = "New_Database"
db.Parent = srv
db.Create()

PowerShell

$srv = new-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server("(local)")
$db = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Database
$db.Name = "New_Database"
$db.Parent = $srv
$db.Create()
