OpenWithNewPassword(String)

This method opens a new connection with the new password.

Declaration

// C#
public void OpenWithNewPassword(string newPassword);

Parameters

newPassword

A string that contains the new password.

Remarks

This method uses the ConnectionString property settings to establish a new connection. The old password must be provided in the connection string as the Password attribute value.

This method can only be called on an OracleConnection in the closed state.

Remarks (.NET Stored Procedure)

This method is not supported in a .NET stored procedure for context connection.

Note:

If connection pooling is enabled, then invoking the OpenWithNewPassword method also clears the connection pool. This closes all idle connections created with the old password.
