Cool, a question on that:
What happens if a exception occurs?
I meand close() gets called at the end of the using block, but does it get
also called when an exception occurs (sort of finally)?
If yes, I'm changing my programming style :)
Another question, how would it look like if you had to catch an exception
(i.e. to rollback a transaction)?
The following code:
====
using (A a = new A())
{
code
};
====
Is equivalent to:
=======
A a = null;
try
{
a = new A();
/// code
}
finally
{
if (a != null) ((IDisposable)a).Dispose();
}
=======
It's the C# compiler that translates every using() to something like the
above code. The IDisposable.Dispose method on data providers automatically
rolls back any open and uncommitted transactions so you don't need to do
explicit rollbacks.
BTW. I've seen many (MS and other) examples where they don't call Dispose
the IDbCommand object, even though it implements IDisposable, I'm not sure
whether it leads to potential resource leaks or not.
