SqlGeometryDataAdapter.SqlText Property

Gets or sets the SQL query that will be used to select data from a SQL database.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraMap

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraMap.v24.2.dll

Declaration

C#

[DefaultValue("")]
public string SqlText { get; set; }

VB.NET

<DefaultValue("")>
Public Property SqlText As String

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
String	String.Empty	A String object.

Example

To load data from a SQL geometry data source, follow the steps below:

1. Create a SqlGeometryDataAdapter object.
2. Specify its SqlGeometryDataAdapter.ConnectionString, SqlGeometryDataAdapter.SqlText and SqlGeometryDataAdapter.SpatialDataMember properties.
3. Assign this object to the VectorItemsLayer.Data property.

Note that all field values loaded from the database (except for the SpatialDataMember field) are stored as attributes for each generated SqlGeometryItem object.

In this example, you can use the Map Editor to edit shapes. To save changes, call corresponding SQL commands in the MapEditor.MapItemEdited event handler.
