Before attending this workshop, students must:

  • Have attended or studied Workshop 2541, Core Data Access with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, or possess equivalent knowledge and skills.
  • Know how to use delegates.
  • Be able to use database stored procedures, triggers, and aggregates.
  • Be able to explain Xpath concepts and basic syntax.
  • Be able to explain XSLT style sheet concepts.
Audience: 

This workshop is intended for corporate and Independent Software Vendor (ISV) application developers who have a desire to learn more about specific technology areas in distributed application development.

Objectives: 

After completing this workshop, students will be able to:

  • Minimize and handle database operation conflicts.
  • Handle large objects.
  • Enhance database performance.
  • Create managed code objects for SQL Server 2005.
  • Query XML by using Xpath.
  • Transform XML by using XSLT style sheets.

Unit 1: Minimizing and Handling Database Operation Conflicts

This unit describes how to minimize data access conflicts, and how to handle these conflicts when they occur. It describes how to implement optimistic concurrency in the ADO.NET

disconnected model, and how to implement optimistic concurrency by using the various isolation levels available in SQL Server 2005.

Lessons

  • Why Do Data Conflicts Arise?
  • Isolation Levels Available in SQL Server 2005
  • Guidelines for Using SQL Server 2005 Isolation Levels

After completing this unit, students will be able to:

  • Explain why data conflicts arise.
  • Describe the isolation levels that are available in SQL Server 2005.
  • Describe the guidelines for using SQL Server 2005 isolation levels.
  • Read committed data by using locks.
  • Read committed data by using statement-level snapshots.
  • Read committed data by using transaction-level snapshots.
  • Handle data concurrency by using ADO.NET.

Unit 2: Handling Large Objects

This unit describes how to read and write large values efficiently to a SQL Server database. It describes how to read large binary values and large text values by using SequentialAccess for a SqlDataReader. It also describes how to write large binary values and large text values, and how to conserve resources when writing large values.

Lessons

  • What Are Binary Large Objects and Character Large Objects?
  • The Process for Reading Large Objects from a Database
  • The Process for Writing Large Objects to a Database

After completing this unit, students will be able to:

  • Describe binary large objects and character large objects.
  • Explain the process for reading large objects from a database.
  • Explain the process for writing large objects to a database.
  • Read large values from SQL Server.
  • Write large values to SQL Server.
  • Conserve resources when writing large values to SQL Server.

Unit 3: Enhancing Database Performance

This unit describes how to enhance database performance by using new features available in ADO.NET 2.0. The unit describes how to perform asynchronous data operations, create multiple active result sets, perform batch updates, and perform bulk copies.

Lessons

  • ADO.NET Enhancements in the .NET Framework 2.0
  • SQL Server Provider Statistics

After completing this unit, students will be able to:

  • Describe the ADO.NET enhancements in Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.
  • Describe the support for run-time statistics in the .NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server.
  • Access multiple result sets concurrently.
  • Perform asynchronous data access operations.
  • Perform a batch update.
  • Perform a bulk data copy.

Unit 4: Creating Managed Code Objects for SQL Server 2005

This unit describes how to create database objects for SQL Server 2005 in a .NET Framework programming language. It describes how to create stored procedures, triggers, user-defined functions, aggregates, and user-defined types in managed code. Additionally, it describes how to deploy an assembly that contains managed objects into SQL Server 2005, and how to declare database objects to reference the managed objects.

Lessons

  • The Benefits of Creating Managed Code Objects
  • Demonstration: The Process for Importing an Existing Assembly into SQL Server 2005
  • Demonstration: The Process for Implementing Managed Code Objects in SQL Server 2005

  • Explain the process for importing an existing assembly into SQL Server 2005.
  • Explain the process for implementing managed code objects in SQL Server 2005.
  • Create managed stored procedures and triggers.
  • Create managed user-defined functions.
  • Create a managed aggregate.
  • Create a managed user-defined type.

Unit 5: Querying XML by Using Xpath

This unit describes how to use Xpath in a .NET Framework application. It describes how to create an XPathNavigator object on an XML document, and how to locate content and evaluate expressions by using the XPathNavigator object. Additionally, it describes how to edit XML data by using the XPathNavigator object.

Lessons
