Generic Code to Execute Stored Procedures

CodeGuru content and product recommendations are editorially independent. We may make money when you click on links to our partners. Learn More.

You can execute a single stored procedure or batch of stored procedures using collections. You can execute any stored procedure with a different number of parameters and data types. Whenever there is any change in stored procedure, you just need to add or delete parameters in the calling code.

Code snippet:

namespace StoredProcExecution
{
      using System;
      using System.Collections;
      using System.Data;
      using System.Data.SqlClient;
      public struct ParamData
      {
            public string pName,pValue;
            public SqlDbType pDataType;
            public ParamData(string pName,SqlDbType pDataType,string pValue)
            {
                  this.pName=pName;
                  this.pDataType=pDataType;
                  this.pValue=pValue;
            }
      }
      public class StoredProcedure
      {
            private string sProcName;
            private ArrayList sParams=new ArrayList();
			public  void SetParam(string pName,SqlDbType pDataType,string pValue)
            {
                 ParamData pData=new  ParamData(pName,pDataType,pValue);
                 sParams.Add(pData);
            }

            public ArrayList GetParams()
            {
                  if (!(sParams==null))
                  {
                        return sParams;
                  }
                  else
                  {
                        return null;
                  }
            }
            public string ProcName
            {
                  get
                  {
                        return sProcName;
                  }
                  set
                  {
                        sProcName = value;
                  }
            }
      }

      public class StoredProcedureCollection:System.Collections.CollectionBase
      {
            public void add(StoredProcedure value)
            {
                  List.Add(value);
            }
            public void Remove(int index)
            {
                  if (index > Count - 1 || index < 0)
                  {
                        //ignore
                        Console.WriteLine("No data to remove");
                  }
                  else
                  {
                        List.RemoveAt(index);
                  }
            }

            public StoredProcedure Item(int Index)
            {
                  return (StoredProcedure) List[Index];
            }
      }
}

Setting Data in Collection:

You can set up the data as given in following example.

StoredProcedureCollection spCollection=new StoredProcedureCollection();
StoredProcedure spData=new StoredProcedure();
spData.ProcName="TestMe";
spData.SetParam("@CountryCode",SqlDbType.Int,1);
spData.SetParam("@City",SqlDbType.VarChar,Hyderabad);
spCollection.add(spProcedure);

Similarly you can add n number of stored procedures to this collection.

Execution part:

You need to parse collection of stored procedures and parameter collection and execute the stored procedure.

public static bool ExecuteSps( StoredProcedureCollection spCollection,
                               SqlConnection Connection )
{
      try
      {
            foreach(StoredProcedure spData in spCollection)
            {
                  SqlCommand cmd=new SqlCommand();
                  int i=0;
                  if (Connection.State!=  ConnectionState.Open)
                     Connection.Open();
                  cmd.Connection=Connection;
                  cmd.CommandType=CommandType.StoredProcedure;
                  cmd.CommandText=spData.ProcName;
                  IEnumerator myEnumerator = spData.GetParams().GetEnumerator();
                  while (myEnumerator.MoveNext())
                  {
                      ParamData Data=(ParamData)myEnumerator.Current;
                      cmd.Parameters.Add(pData.pName,pData.pDataType);
                      cmd.Parameters[i].Value=pData.pValue;
                      i=i+1;
                  }
                  cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
            }
            return true;

      }
      catch(Exception exc)
      {
            return false;
      }
}
