    Examples

    The following code example demonstrates how to use the OrWhereIsNotNull method to add an OR IS NOT NULL condition to the WHERE clause. In this example, the IS NOT NULL condition specifies that the Title value cannot be null.

    using SnapObjects.Data;
    using System;
    
    namespace Appeon.ApiDoc.ISqlWhereAndOrExamples
    {
        public class OrWhereIsNotNullExample
        {
            private readonly SchoolContext _context;
    
            public OrWhereIsNotNullExample(SchoolContext dataContext)
            {
                // Sets data context
                _context = dataContext;
            }
    
            public void Example()
            {
    
                // Declares SqlQueryBuilder.
                var sqlbuilder = new SqlQueryBuilder();
    
                // Defines a SQL statement, and adds an OR IS NOT NULL condition: Title cannot be null.
                sqlbuilder.Select("*")
                    .From("Course")
                    .Where("CourseID", SqlBinaryOperator.GreaterThan,
                            SqlBuilder.Parameter<int>("courid"))
                    .OrWhereIsNotNull("Title");
    
                string sql = sqlbuilder.ToSqlString(_context);
    
                Console.WriteLine(sql);
    
                /*This code produces the following output:
    
                SELECT
                *
                FROM [Course]
                WHERE ([CourseID] > @courid
                OR [Title] IS NOT NULL)
               */
    
            }
