SQL XML 列值

SQL Server 支持 xml 数据类型,开发人员可以使用 SqlCommand 类的标准行为检索包括此类型的结果集。 可以检索 xml 列(例如,检索到 SqlDataReader 中),就像检索任何列一样;但若要以 XML 格式处理列内容,必须使用 XmlReader

示例

以下控制台应用程序从 AdventureWorks 数据库的 Sales.Store 表中为 SqlDataReader 实例选择两行,每行包含一个 xml 列。 对于每一行,xml 列的值是使用 SqlDataReaderGetSqlXml 方法进行读取。 此值存储在 XmlReader 中。 请注意,若要将内容设置为 SqlXml 变量,必须使用 GetSqlXml,而不是 GetValue 方法;GetValue 以字符串形式返回 xml 列的值。

备注

默认情况下,在安装 SQL Server 时不安装 AdventureWorks 示例数据库。 可以通过运行 SQL Server 安装程序来安装它。
