Add(int, string)
This method creates and adds an OracleBulkCopyColumnMapping
object to the collection using the supplied source column ordinal and destination column name.
Declaration
// C# public OracleBulkCopyColumnMapping Add(int sourceColumnIndex, string destinationColumn);
Parameters
-
sourceColumnIndex
The ordinal position of the source column within the data source.
-
destinationColumn
The name of the destination column within the destination table.
Exceptions
InvalidOperationException
- The bulk copy operation is in progress.
Return Value
The newly created OracleBulkCopyColumnMapping
object that was added to the collection.
Remarks
It is not necessary to specify column mappings for all the columns in the data source. If a ColumnMapping
is not specified, then, by default, columns are mapped based on the ordinal position. This succeeds only if the source and destination table schema match. If there is a mismatch, an InvalidOperationException
is thrown.
All the mappings in a mapping collection must be by name or ordinal position.
Note:
Oracle Data Provider for .NET makes one or more round trips to the database to determine the column names if the mapping is specified by ordinal resulting in a performance overhead. Therefore, it is recommended to specify the mapping by column names.
