This method creates and adds an OracleBulkCopyColumnMapping object to the collection using the supplied source column name and destination column ordinal.

Declaration

// C#
public OracleBulkCopyColumnMapping Add(string sourceColumn, 
    int destinationColumnIndex);

Parameters

• sourceColumn

  The name of the source column within the data source.

• destinationColumnIndex

  The ordinal position of the destination column within the destination table.

Return Value

The newly created OracleBulkCopyColumnMapping object that was added to the collection.

Exceptions

InvalidOperationException - The bulk copy operation is in progress.

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.
