Base connection library (VB.NET)

This repository is for base classes used for connecting to both SQL-Server and MS-Access databases using several classes for both easily creating connections along with a generalized method to detect runtime exceptions.

This code may not suit every developer's need and also may seem like overkill to the novice developer. The intent is to have a base class that can be used in any project in one or more Visual Studio solutions. Although the code is VB.NET, the base library can be used with C# also.

Getting started

  • Add the class project BaseConnectionLibrary to your Visual Studio solution, rename the project if so desired.
  • Add a reference to KarenBase to your Windows forms project.
  • Set DatabaseServer to your server e.g. KARENS-PC or for SQL-Server Express .\SQLEXPRESS
  • Set DefaultCatalog to the targeted database in the server above.
  • Follow the example in the project SampleSqlConnection for SQL-Server. MS-Access example to follow.

Requires

  • Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 or higher.

Tips

  • IsSuccessFul from the base exception class allow a type to be returned from a function such as a List(Of T) or DataTable without the need to be concerned with if there had been a runtime exception as after the method calls and before using the return item check IsSuccessFul.
Imports SampleSqlConnection.Classes

Public Class Form1
    Private Sub testConnectionButton_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) _
        Handles testConnectionButton.Click

        Dim ops As New DataOperations
        ops.ReadAllCustomersIntoDataTable()

        If ops.IsSuccessFul Then
            ' use the return type
        Else
            ' don't use the return type
        End If
    End Sub
End Class
