Simple SubSonic Project Collection Retrieve

Using the subsonic project ORM for .NET clearly has tons of benefits for DAL and BLL purposes.

A great way to get a list of records from the db is to use the collection object which is created for tables and view objects from the db.

Here are two examples of how to use the .Load() method and overload to get data in a collection for which you can loop through using a foreach() statement.

Using the Query Object with Collection Object

Query q = new Query(Views.Accounts);
q.WHERE("accountID", Comparison.Equals, _accountID.value.ToString());

AccountsCollection obj1 = new AccountsCollection();
obj1.Load(q.ExecuteReader());

Using only the Collection Object

AccountsCollection obj1 = new AccountsCollection().Where("accountID", Comparison.Equals, accountID.value.ToString()).Load();

 

Now, to loop through the Collection
Once the collection has been instantiated and the Load() method called a foreach() loop can take place to get the records.

if (obj1.Count > 0)
{
   foreach (Accounts x in obj1)
   {
      Console.Write("My Account Name is {0}", x.AccountName);
   }
}
else
   Console.Write("There are no accounts in the collection");
