What I am trying to do is create some arbitrary sql command with parameters, set the values and types of the parameters, and then return the parsed sql command - with parameters included. I will not be directly running this command against a sql database, so no connection should be necessary. So if I ran the example program below, I would hope to see the following text (or something similar):
WITH SomeTable (SomeColumn)
AS
(
SELECT N':)'
UNION ALL
SELECT N'>:o'
UNION ALL
SELECT N'^_^'
)
SELECT SomeColumn FROM SomeTable
And the sample program is:
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
namespace DryEraseConsole
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
const string COMMAND_TEXT = @"
WITH SomeTable (SomeColumn)
AS
(
SELECT N':)'
UNION ALL
SELECT N'>:o'
UNION ALL
SELECT @Value
)
SELECT SomeColumn FROM SomeTable
";
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(COMMAND_TEXT);
cmd.CommandText = COMMAND_TEXT;
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter
{
ParameterName = "@Value",
Size = 128,
SqlDbType = SqlDbType.NVarChar,
Value = "^_^"
});
Console.WriteLine(cmd.CommandText);
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
}
Is this something that is achievable using the .net standard libraries? Initial searching says no, but I hope I'm wrong.
