Take 'Backup' of SQL Server Compact database

Question

是否可以使用备份SQL Server Compact数据库（即* .sdf）并恢复相同的数据库。

Answer 1

Just copy the file. Done.

Quote from Maintaining Databases :

Because SQL Server Compact 3.5 is a file-based database system, you can accomplish many common database tasks such as backing up, restoring, and deleting a database by using the file system APIs.

To back up a database, close all connections to the database, and then copy the .sdf file. To restore a database, copy the .sdf file back to its regular working location. These operations work even if the database is set up for replication. To drop a database, delete the .sdf database file.

Answer 2

我使用LINQ to SQL将紧凑型SQL数据库写入XML文件，并将其读回以恢复它。
