Valori di colonna XML SQL (ADO.NET)

SQL Server 2005 supporta il nuovo tipo di dati xml. Gli sviluppatori possono recuperare set di risultati che includono questo tipo utilizzando il comportamento standard della classe SqlCommand. È possibile recuperare una colonna xml come qualunque altra colonna (ad esempio, in un tipo SqlDataReader) ma se si desidera lavorare con il contenuto della colonna in formato XML, è necessario utilizzare un tipo XmlReader.

Esempio

L'applicazione console seguente seleziona due righe, ciascuna contenente una colonna xml, dalla tabella Sales.Store nel database AdventureWorks per un'istanza SqlDataReader. Il valore della colonna xml per ciascuna riga viene letto utilizzando il metodo GetSqlXml del tipo SqlDataReader. Il valore viene archiviato in un tipo XmlReader. Notare che è necessario utilizzare il metodo GetSqlXml invece del metodo GetValue, se si desidera impostare il contenuto su una variabile SqlXml. Il metodo GetValue restituisce il valore della colonna xml sotto forma di stringa.

NotaNota

Per impostazione predefinita, il database di esempio AdventureWorks non viene installato insieme a SQL Server 2005.Per installarlo, è sufficiente eseguire il programma di installazione di SQL Server.
