SqlBulkCopy.NotifyAfter Property

Definition

Defines the number of rows to be processed before generating a notification event.

public:
 property int NotifyAfter { int get(); void set(int value); };
public int NotifyAfter { get; set; }
member this.NotifyAfter : int with get, set
Public Property NotifyAfter As Integer

Property Value

The integer value of the NotifyAfter property, or zero if the property has not been set.

Examples

The following console application demonstrates how to bulk load data using a connection that is already open. The NotifyAfter property is set so that the event handler is called after every 50 rows copied to the table.

In this example, the connection is first used to read data from a SQL Server table to a SqlDataReader instance. Then a second connection is opened to bulk copy the data. Note that the source data does not have to be located on SQL Server; you can use any data source that can be read to an IDataReader or loaded to a DataTable.

Important

This sample will not run unless you have created the work tables as described in Bulk Copy Example Setup. This code is provided to demonstrate the syntax for using SqlBulkCopy only. If the source and destination tables are in the same SQL Server instance, it is easier and faster to use a Transact-SQL INSERT ... SELECT statement to copy the data.

Remarks

This property is designed for user interface components that illustrate the progress of a bulk copy operation. It indicates the number of rows to be processed before generating a notification event. The NotifyAfter property can be set at any time, even while a bulk copy operation is underway. Changes made during a bulk copy operation take effect after the next notification. The new setting applies to all subsequent operations on the same instance.

If NotifyAfter is set to a number less than zero, an ArgumentOutOfRangeException is thrown.
