SqlCeTransaction.Rollback Method

Rolls back a transaction from a pending state.

Namespace: System.Data.SqlServerCe
Assembly: System.Data.SqlServerCe (in system.data.sqlserverce.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overrides Sub Rollback

public override void Rollback ()

public:
virtual void Rollback () override

public void Rollback ()

public override function Rollback ()

Exceptions

Exception type	Condition
Exception	An error occurred while trying to commit the transaction.
InvalidOperationException	The transaction has already been committed or rolled back. -or- The connection is broken.

Remarks

The transaction can only be rolled back from a pending state (after BeginTransaction has been called, but before Commit is called).

Example

The following example creates a SqlCeConnection and a SqlCeTransaction. It also demonstrates how to use the BeginTransaction, a Commit, and Rollback methods.

Dim conn As New SqlCeConnection("Data Source = AdventureWorks.sdf;")
conn.Open()

' Start a local transaction; SQL Mobile supports the following 
' isolation levels: ReadCommitted, RepeatableRead, Serializable
'
Dim tx As SqlCeTransaction = conn.BeginTransaction(IsolationLevel.ReadCommitted)

' By default, commands run in auto-commit mode; 
'
Dim cmd1 As SqlCeCommand = conn.CreateCommand()

' You may create multiple commands on the same connection
'
Dim cmd2 As SqlCeCommand = conn.CreateCommand()

' To enlist a command in a transaction, set the Transaction property
'
cmd1.Transaction = tx

Try
    cmd1.CommandText = "INSERT INTO FactSalesQuota " & _
        "(EmployeeKey, TimeKey, SalesAmountQuota) " & _
        "VALUES (2, 1158, 150000.00)"

    cmd1.ExecuteNonQuery()

    ' Auto-commited because cmd2 is not enlisted in a transaction
    '
    cmd2.CommandText = "INSERT INTO FactSalesQuota " & _
        "(EmployeeKey, TimeKey, SalesAmountQuota) " & _
        "VALUES (3, 1157, 15000.00)"

    cmd2.ExecuteNonQuery()

    ' Commit the changes to disk if everything above succeeded;
    ' Use Deferred mode for optimal performance; the changes will 
    ' be flashed to disk within the timespan specified in the 
    ' ConnectionString 'FLUSH INTERVAL' property; 
    '
    tx.Commit(CommitMode.Deferred)

    ' Alternatively, you could use:
    ' tx.Commit(CommitMode.Immediate);
    '
    ' or use default (Deferred) commit mode:
    ' tx.Commit()

Catch e As Exception
    ' Handle errors here
    '
    tx.Rollback()
Finally
    conn.Close()
End Try

SqlCeConnection conn = new SqlCeConnection("Data Source = AdventureWorks.sdf;");
conn.Open();

// Start a local transaction; SQL Mobile supports the following 
// isolation levels: ReadCommitted, RepeatableRead, Serializable
//
SqlCeTransaction tx = conn.BeginTransaction(IsolationLevel.ReadCommitted);

// By default, commands run in auto-commit mode; 
//
SqlCeCommand cmd1 = conn.CreateCommand();

// You may create multiple commands on the same connection
//
SqlCeCommand cmd2 = conn.CreateCommand();

// To enlist a command in a transaction, set the Transaction property
//
cmd1.Transaction = tx;

try
{
    cmd1.CommandText = "INSERT INTO FactSalesQuota " +
        "(EmployeeKey, TimeKey, SalesAmountQuota) " +
        "VALUES (2, 1158, 150000.00)";

    cmd1.ExecuteNonQuery();

    // Auto-commited because cmd2 is not enlisted in a transaction
    //
    cmd2.CommandText = "INSERT INTO FactSalesQuota " +
        "(EmployeeKey, TimeKey, SalesAmountQuota) " +
        "VALUES (3, 1157, 15000.00)";

    cmd2.ExecuteNonQuery();

    // Commit the changes to disk if everything above succeeded;
    // Use Deferred mode for optimal performance; the changes will 
    // be flashed to disk within the timespan specified in the 
    // ConnectionString 'FLUSH INTERVAL' property; 
    //
    tx.Commit(CommitMode.Deferred);

    // Alternatively, you could use:
    // tx.Commit(CommitMode.Immediate);
    //
    // or use default (Deferred) commit mode:
    // tx.Commit()
}
catch (Exception)
{
    // Handle errors here
    //
    tx.Rollback();
}
finally
{
    conn.Close();
}
