connection-string

Is there an easy way to get the connection string of a database listed in the connection window of LINQPad (other than using the object explorer of Visual Studio)? Jay Walker Making sgmoore 's comment into an answer: try this.Connection.ConnectionString.Dump(); In LinqPad 5 if your Language dropdown is set to C# Program and you have a database selected in the Connection dropdown, then you can get your string using string c = LINQPad.Util.CurrentDataContext.Connection.ConnectionString; 来源： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25360921/how-can-i-get-the-connection-string-for-an-sql-express

In my code behind page, how do I access the connection string which is stored in my web.config file? Kyle Sonaty System.Web.Configuration.WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["YouConnStringName"].ConnectionString; This requires references to System.Configuration.dll and System.Web.dll. How to: Read Connection Strings from the Web.config File From comment on http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178411.aspx string c = System.Web.Configuration.WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["myconnectionstringname"].ConnectionString; Requires your project to reference to System.Web and System

Can anybody tell me the effective difference between the following connection strings: <add key="ConnectionString" value="server=tcp:192.168.0.12\Sqlserver2005;database=;user id=sa;password=;"> <add key="ConnectionString" value="server=192.168.0.12\Sqlserver2005;database=;user id=sa;password=;Network Library=DBMSSOCN;"> I believe both are effectively the same. Specifying "Network Library=DBMSSOCN" explicitly connects using TCPIP and prefixing server value with TCP does the same thing. Please tell me if there is any difference or any performance implication of specifying these settings in web

Pretty straightforward question. I'm building an app which reads data from a SQL Server 2005 instance. I wanted to run some tests on my laptop (which does not have SQL 2005) so I was looking at swapping in a local database for the purpose of the tests. I'm using VS2008 so the Compact Edition DB seemed a natural choice. I had hoped to just swap out my connection string, but it seems It will only let me connect to the CE database using the SqlCeConnection and not SqlConnection. Any way around this, modifiers I can use in the connection string perhaps? It's actually very possible to user SQL CE

I have two connection strings (both in Web.Config: CS_Local and CS_Production) for my DBML (Linq to SQL). In my Global.Asax/Application_Start I run some production preparation methods if the request is non-local (!HttpContext.Current.Request.IsLocal). Within that part, I'd also like to change the current connection string used by my DBML from the standard CS_Local to CS_Production. How would I do that? Some help please.. You can define the dbml context on the fly with: string connectionString = HttpContext.Current.Request.IsLocal ? ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["CS_Local"]
