  1. 2.11 Create Oracle 10g XE Sample Database 73 Figure 2.51 Completed LogIn table. length of the string depends on the number of real letters entered by the user. The data types for all columns are VARCHAR2 with one exception, which is the phone column that has a CHAR type with an upper bound of 12 letters since our phone numbers are composed of 10 digits, and we can extend this length to 12 with two dashes. For all other columns, the length varies with the different information, so the VARCHAR2 is selected for those columns. The finished design view of your Faculty table is shown in Figure 2.52. You need to check the Not Null checkbox for the faculty_id column since we selected this column as the primary key for this table. Click on the Next button to go to the next page to add the primary key for this table, which is shown in Figure 2.53. Check the Not Populated from the primary key list since we don’t want to use any Sequence object to automatically generate a sequence of numeric numbers as our primary key, and then select the FACULTY_ID(VARCHAR2) from the Primary Key textbox. In this way, the faculty_id column is selected as the primary key for this table. Keep the Composite Primary Key box untouched since we do not have that kind of key in this table, and click on the Next button to go to the next page. Since we have not created all other tables to work as our reference tables for the foreign key, click on Next to continue, and we will do the foreign key for this table later. Click on the Finish button to go to the Confirm page. Finally click on the Create button to create this new Faculty table. Your completed columns in the Faculty table are shown in Figure 2.54.

Since we have already selected the primary key for each table when we create and build those tables, therefore we only need to take care of the foreign keys and connect them with the associated primary keys in the related tables. Let’s start from the first table, LogIn table.
  7. 2.11 Create Oracle 10g XE Sample Database 79 Figure 2.56 Completed Course table. Figure 2.57 Completed Student table.
  8. 80 Chapter 2 Introduction to Databases Figure 2.58 Completed StudentCourse table. 2.11.3.1 Create Constraints Between LogIn and Faculty Tables Now let’s create the constraints between the LogIn and the Faculty tables by using a foreign key. Create a foreign key for the LogIn table and connect it to the primary key in the Faculty table. The faculty_id is a foreign key in the LogIn table but it is a primary key in the Faculty table. A one-to-many relationship exists between the faculty_id in the Faculty table and the faculty_id in the LogIn table. Log on the Oracle Database 10g XE using the customer user name, CSE_DEPT, and the customer database password, and then open the home page of the Oracle Database 10g XE. Click on the Object Browser icon and select Browse|Table to list all tables. Select the LogIn table from the left pane to open it, click the Constraints tab and then click the Create button that is the first button in the second row. Enter LOGIN_FACULTY_FK into the Constraint Name box, and select the Foreign Key from the Constraint Type box, which is shown in Figure 2.59. Check the On Delete Cascade checkbox. Then select the FACULTY_ID from the LogIn table as the foreign key column. Select the FACULTY

Your finished Add Constraint window should match the one shown in Figure 2.59. Click on Next to go to the next window, and then click on the Finish button to confirm this foreign key’s creation. 2.11.3.2 Create Constraints Between LogIn and Student Tables The relationship between the Student table and the LogIn table is a one-to-many rela- tionship. The student_id in the Student table is a primary key, but the student_id in the LogIn table is a foreign key. Multiple student_ids can exists in the LogIn table, but only one or a unique student_id can be found from the Student table. To create a foreign key from the LogIn table and connect it to the primary key in the Student table, open the LogIn table if it is not opened and click on the Constraints tab, and then click on the Create button that is the first button in the second row to open the Add Constraint window. Enter LOGIN_STUDENT_FK into the Constraint Name box, and select the Foreign Key from the Constraint Type box, which is shown in Figure 2.60. Check the On Delete Cascade checkbox. Then select the STUDENT_ID from the LogIn table as the foreign key column. Select the STUDENT table from the Reference Table Name box as the reference table, and select the STUDENT_ID from the Reference Table Column List as the reference table column. Your finished Add Constraint window should match the one shown in Figure 2.60.
  10. 82 Chapter 2 Introduction to Databases Figure 2.60 Create the foreign key between the LogIn and the Student table. Figure 2.61 Finished foreign key creation window for the LogIn table. Recall that when we created the LogIn table in Section 2.11.2.1, we emphasized that for the blank fields in both faculty_id and student_id columns, don’t place a NULL into these fields and just leave those fields blank. The reason for this is that an ALTER TABLE command will be issued when you create a foreign key for the LogIn table, and the NULL cannot be recognized by this command, therefore an error ORA-02298 occurs and your creation of a foreign key will fail. Click on the Next button to go to the next window, and then click on the Finish button to confirm this foreign key’s creation. Your finished foreign key creation window for the LogIn table should match the one shown in Figure 2.61.
  11. 2.11 Create Oracle 10g XE Sample Database 83 2.11.3.3 Create Constraints Between Course and Faculty Tables The relationship between the Faculty table and the Course table is a one-to-many rela- tionship. The faculty_id in the Faculty table is a primary key, but it is a foreign key in the Course table. This means that only a unique faculty_id exists in the Faculty table but multiple faculty_ids can exist in the Course table since one faculty can teach multiple courses. Open the Course table by clicking it from the left panel. Click on the Constraints tab and then click the Create button. Enter COURSE_FACULTY_FK into the Constraint Name box, and select the Foreign Key from the Constraint Type box, which is shown in Figure 2.62. Check the On Delete Cascade checkbox. Then select the FACULTY_ID from the Course table as the foreign key column. Select the FACULTY table from the Reference Table Name box as the reference table, and select the FACULTY_ID from the Reference Table Column List as the reference table column. Your finished Add Constraint window should match the one shown in Figure 2.62. Click on the Next button to go to the next window, and then click on the Finish button to confirm this foreign key’s creation. Your finished foreign key creation window for the Course table should match the one shown in Figure 2.63. 2.11.3.4 Create Constraints Between StudentCourse and Student Tables The relationship between the Student table and the StudentCourse table is a one-to-many relationship. The primary key student_id in the Student table is a foreign key in the Figure 2.62 Create the foreign key between the Course and the Faculty table.

In order to create this relationship by using the foreign key, first let’s open the StudentCourse table. Click on the Constraints tab and then click the Create button that is the first button on the second row. Enter STUDENTCOURSE_STUDENT_FK into the Constraint Name box, and select the Foreign Key from the Constraint Type box, which is shown in Figure 2.64. Check the On Delete Cascade checkbox. Then select the STUDENT_ID from the StudentCourse table as the foreign key column. Select the STUDENT table from the Reference Table Name box as the reference table, and select the STUDENT_ID from the Reference Table Column List as the reference table column. Your finished Add Constraint window should match the one shown in Figure 2.64. Click on the Next button to go to the next window, and then click on the Finish button to confirm this foreign key’s creation. 2.11.3.5 Create Constraints Between StudentCourse and Course Tables The relationship between the Course table and the StudentCourse table is a one-to-many relationship. The primary key course_id in the Course table is a foreign key in the StudentCourse table since one course can be taken by multiple different students. By using the StudentCourse table as an intermediate table, a many-to-many relationship can be built between the Student table and the Course table. To create this relationship by using the foreign key, open the StudentCourse table by clicking on it from the left pane. Click the Constraints tab and then click on the Create button that is the first button on the second row. Enter STUDENTCOURSE_ COURSE_FK into the Constraint Name box, and select the Foreign Key from the Constraint Type box, which is shown in Figure 2.65. Check the On Delete Cascade check- box. Then select the COURSE_ID from the StudentCourse table as the foreign key column. Select the COURSE table from the Reference Table Name box as the refer- ence table, and select the COURSE_ID from the Reference Table Column List as the

A completed Oracle 10g XE sample database CSE_DEPT that is represented by a group of table files can be found in the folder Oracle located at the accompanying ftp web site (see Chapter 1). Refer to Appendix F to get more detailed information if you want to use this sample database in your Visual C# applications. At this point, we have finished developing and creating all sample databases we need to use later. All of these sample databases will be utilized for different applications we will develop in this book. Since the Oracle Database 10g XE is very different with other databases such as Microsoft Access and SQL Server 2005, you need to refer to Appendix F to get a clear picture about how to use the CSE_DEPT Oracle database files. Refer to Appendix D to get the knowledge on how to use the Utilities of Oracle Database 10g XE to Unload the five tables to five Text files, and how to Load those five table files into a new customer Oracle database to create a new customer Oracle database easily. 2.12 CHAPTER SUMMARY A detailed discussion and analysis of the structure and components about databases were provided in this chapter. Some key technologies in developing and designing databases were also given and discussed. The procedures and components to develop a relational database were analyzed in detailed with some real data tables in our sample database CSE_DEPT.

  18. Chapter 3 Introduction to ADO.NET It has been a long road for software developers to generate and implement sophisticated data processing techniques to improve and enhance data operations. The evolution of data access Application Programming Interface (API) is also a long process focusing predominantly on how to deal with relational data in a more flexible way. The methodol- ogy development has been focused on Microsoft-based APIs such as Open Database Connectivity (ODBC), OLEDB, Microsoft Jet, Data Access Objects (DAO), and Remote Data Objects (RDO), in addition to many non-Microsoft-based APIs. These APIs did not bridge the gap between object-based and semistructured (XML) data programming needs. Combine this problem with the task of dealing with many different data stores, nonrelational data like XML and applications applying across multiple languages are challenging topics, and one should have a tremendous opportunity for complete rearchi- tecture. The ADO.NET is a good solution for these challenges. ADO.NET 2.0 was considered as a full solution between the relational database API and object-oriented data access API, which was released with the .NET Framework 2.0 and Visual Studio.NET 2005. Today the updated version of the ADO.NET is 3.5, which is released with the .NET Framework 3.5 and Visual Studio.NET 2008. In this chapter, first we will provide a detailed review about the history of ADO.NET, and then a full discussion and description about the components and architectures of ADO.NET 2.0 is given since most data components used for today’s database actions are still covered by the ADO.NET 2.0. Finally we introduce some new features and components included in the ADO.NET 3.5. 3.1 ADO AND ADO.NET ActiveX Data Object (ADO) is developed based on Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) and Component Object Model (COM) technologies. COM is used by developers to create reusable software components, link components together to build applications, and take advantage of Windows services. For the last decade, ADO has been the pre- Practical Database Programming With Visual C#.NET, by Ying Bai Copyright © 2010 the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. 91
  19. 92 Chapter 3 Introduction to ADO.NET ferred interface for Visual Basic programmers to access various data sources, with ADO 2.7 being the latest version of this technology. The development history of data accessing methods can be traced back to the mid-1990s with DAO and then followed by RDO, which was based on ODBC. In the late 1990s, the ADO that is based on OLEDB was developed. This technology is widely applied in most object-oriented programming and database applications during the last decade. ADO.NET 3.5 is the updated version of ADO.NET, and it is based mainly on the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5. The underlying technology applied in ADO.NET 3.5 is very different from the COM-based ADO. The ADO.NET Common Language Runtime provides bidirectional, transparent integration with COM. This means that COM and ADO.NET applications and components can use functionality from each system. But the ADO.NET 3.5 Framework provides developers with a significant number of benefits including a more robust, evidence-based security model, automatic memory management native Web services support, and Language Integrated Query (LINQ). For new develop- ment, the ADO.NET 3.5 is highly recommended as a preferred technology because of its powerful managed runtime environment and services. This chapter will provide a detailed introduction to ADO.NET 2.0 and ADO.NET 3.5 and their components, and these components will be utilized for the rest of the book. In this chapter, you will: • Learn the basic classes in ADO.NET 2.0 and its architecture. • Learn the different ADO.NET 2.0 data providers. • Learn about the Connection and Command components. • Learn about the Parameters collection component. • Learn about the DataAdapter and DataReader components. • Learn about the DataSet and DataTable components. • Learn about the ADO.NET 3.5 Entity Framework (EF). • Learn about the ADO.NET 3.5 Entity Framework Tools (EFT). • Learn about the ADO.NET Entity Data Model (EDM). First let’s take a closer look at ADO.NET 2.0 and have a global picture of its components. 3.2 OVERVIEW OF ADO.NET 2.0 ADO.NET is a set of classes that expose data access services to the Microsoft .NET programmer. ADO.NET provides a rich set of components for creating distributed, data- sharing applications. It is an integral part of the Microsoft .NET Framework, providing access to relational, XML, and application data. ADO.NET supports a variety of devel- opment needs, including the creation of front-end database clients and middle-tier busi- ness objects used by applications, tools, languages, or Internet browsers. All ADO.NET classes are located at the System.Data namespace with two files named System.Data.dll and System.Xml.dll. When compiling code that uses the System.Data namespace, reference both System.Data.dll and System.Xml.dll.
