This is my stored procedure code. I got the correct date, but I am unable to read the values in asp.net.
public DateTime getCurrentDate()
{
try
{
DateTime dt;
SqlDataReader reader;
SqlConnection objSqlConn = new SqlConnection(ConnString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.CommandText = "usp_currentDate";
cmd.Connection = objSqlConn;
objSqlConn.Open();
me(1);
reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
dt = reader.GetDateTime(1);
return dt;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw ex;
}
}
but it's not working. It throws an exception
Invalid attempt to read when no data is present
What changes do I have to make?
Try something like this, using ExecuteScalar
to fetch a single row / single column value:
public DateTime getCurrentDate()
{
try
{
DateTime dt;
// set up connection and command in *using* blocks
using (SqlConnection objSqlConn = new SqlConnection(ConnString))
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("dbo.usp_currentDate", objSqlConn))
{
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
objSqlConn.Open();
// since the query returns exactly one row, one column -> use ExecuteScalar
object result = cmd.ExecuteScalar();
// if something was returned .....
if (result != null)
{
// try to convert to DateTime
if (DateTime.TryParse(result.ToString(), out dt)
{
return dt;
}
}
// return default value, if no data was read or could not be converted
return DateTime.MinValue;
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw;
}
}
Besides on why you return local time with GETDATE
as a character, you can't read the data reader without move the cursor to it's first line with Read
method .
From documentation;
The default position of the
SqlDataReader
is before the first record. Therefore, you must callRead
to begin accessing any data.
string s;
reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
if(reader.Read())
s = reader.GetString(0);
Or better, use ExecuteScalar
method since you return one row with one column like;
string s = (string)cmd.ExecuteScalar();
Remember, CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101)
returns varchar
which is preferable used with string
in CLR side, that's why you can't assign this value to a DateTime
variable.
Also use using
statement to dispose your database connections and commands.
