C＃DataTable：ImportRow（DataRow）与Rows.Add（DataRow.ItemArray）

Question

I have two DataTable with the same schema:

DataTable t1 = new DataTable();
DataTable t2 = t1.Clone();

If I want to add a new DataRow to t1 :

DataRow row=t1.NewRow();
t1.Rows.Add(t1);

I cannot use t1.ImportRow(row); since after been created, row is in a detached state, and therefore it would be ignored by the ImportRow method (see Microsoft documentation ).

Now I want to copy row into t2 : I know that a DataRow object can be contained only in one DataTable , therefore one needs to create a copy, to do it one can use two methods:

t1.Rows.Add(row.ItemArray);

or

t1.ImportRow(row);

My question is: are t1.Rows.Add(row.ItemArray); and t1.ImportRow(row); equivalent? Are all my assumptions correct?

Answer 1

I've looked into the code and it looks like t1.Rows.Add(row.ItemArray); would be a little less complex. Anyway the methods are not equivalent technicaly.
