SqlDataSourceEnumerator Class

Definition

Provides a mechanism for enumerating all available instances of SQL Server within the local network.

public ref class SqlDataSourceEnumerator sealed : System::Data::Common::DbDataSourceEnumerator

    inherit DbDataSourceEnumerator

Remarks

SQL Server makes it possible for applications to determine the existence of its instances within the current network. The SqlDataSourceEnumerator class exposes this information to the application developer, providing a DataTable containing information about all the available servers. This returned table contains a list of server instances that matches the list provided when a user attempts to create a new connection, and on the Connection Properties dialog box, expands the drop-down list containing all the available servers.
