DataTable.Clone Method

Definition

Clones the structure of the DataTable, including all DataTable schemas and constraints.

public:
 virtual System::Data::DataTable ^ Clone();
public virtual System.Data.DataTable Clone ();
abstract member Clone : unit -> System.Data.DataTable
override this.Clone : unit -> System.Data.DataTable
Public Overridable Function Clone () As DataTable

Returns

A new DataTable with the same schema as the current DataTable.

Examples

The following sample demonstrates how to update the structure and constraints of the destination table after you execute DataTable.Clone. The ClonedDataTable class will return a destination table and includes all the updating events. After the clone, structure changes in the source table won't be reflected in the destination table. Specifically, this sample will:

  • Update the changes of the columns in source table.

  • Update the changes of the UniqueConstraint in source table.

  • Update the changes of the ForeignKeyConstraint in source table.

      DataTable clonedCourses = clonedResult.DestinationTable;
      Console.WriteLine("This is the destination table:");
      WriteDataTable(clonedCourses);

      // Add the events of updating column collection into the source table.
      clonedResult.UpdateAddedColumn();
      clonedResult.UpdateDeletedColumn();
      // Add a DataColumn in source table.
      DataColumn columnCredits = new DataColumn("Credits", typeof(Int32));

      Console.WriteLine("After add a column in source table, it's the result in the destination:");

Remarks

If these classes have been derived, the clone will also be of the same derived classes.

Clone creates a new DataTable with the same structure as the original DataTable, but does not copy any data (the new DataTable will not contain any DataRows). To copy both the structure and data into a new DataTable, use Copy.
