Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to import the department records from an XML string to a DataStore.

using DWNet.Data;
using System;

namespace Appeon.ApiDoc.DataStoreDataExtensionsExamples
{
    public class ImportXmlExample
    {
        private readonly SchoolContext _context;

        public ImportXmlExample(SchoolContext dataContext)
        {
            // Sets the data context
            _context = dataContext;
        }

        public void Example2()
        {
            // Instantiates the datastore with datawindow: d_department.
            var datastore = new DataStore("d_department", _context);
			
			// Gets the XML string to be imported.
            string importXml = GetImportXml();

            // Imports the XML to datastore.
            datastore.ImportXml(importXml, DwBuffer.Primary);

            Console.WriteLine("Rowcount: {0}", datastore.RowCount);

            for (int row = 0, rowcount = datastore.RowCount; row < rowcount; row++)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("DepartmentID: {0}; Name: {1}; Budget: {2}",
                                  datastore.GetItem<int>(row, "departmentid"),
                                  datastore.GetItem<string>(row, "name"),
                                  datastore.GetItem<decimal>(row, "budget"));
            }

            /*This code produces the following output:

            Rowcount: 2
            DepartmentID: 1; Name: Engineering; Budget: 220000.0000
            DepartmentID: 2; Name: English; Budget: 120000.0000
           */
        }
    }
