Entity Framework CRUD Operations Using Stored Procedure
In the last article, I showed how to implement CRUD operations using Entity Framework and a SQL database. Now I want to show you how to implement the same using a MySQL database.
The creation of tables and Stored Procedures are left as it is almost the same as we did in SQL.
Problem faced
Before doing this, I would like to mention a few problems I encountered.
While mapping Stored Procedures from the model, I could not assign the parameters as we did in SQL Server.
Generally, in SQL, while assigning parameters, we use the following:
var ietsParameterEmpAddress = new MySqlParameter("@EmpAddress", txtAddress.Text); // We use @ here since we assign parameters inside the Stored Procedure with the @ symbol. Similarly, I tried the same by replacing the @ with _ as we use the _ symbol for assigning variables in MySQL Stored Procedures.
Then I called the Stored Procedure as follows as we did in our earlier article:
Entities.ExecuteStoreCommand("uspInsertUsers _UserName,_Password,_FirstName,_LastName)", userName,password,FirstName,LastName);
After executing and trying to execute the command, I got an exception You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL Server version for the right syntax to use near "uspInsertUsers "Dorababu," "sae", "Dorababu", "M" at the line.
For the first one as explained here Entity, we can insert the data without mapping Stored Procedures using ExecuteStoreCommand and others.
For the latter we have to replace _ with ?, so our parameters should be passed like this.
var ietsParameterEmpAddress = new MySqlParameter("?EmpAddress", txtAddress.Text);
Then ExecuteStoreCommand should be as follows.
entities.ExecuteStoreCommand("CALL uspInsertUsers(?UserName,?Password,?FirstName,?LastName)", userName,password,FirstName,LastName);
As we did in our earlier blogs, the design and code are almost the same, except the changes are as I said.
I want to thank Vulpes for helping me in resolving the issues.

Conclusion
In the last article, I showed how we can implement CRUD operations using Entity Framework using SQL database; now, I want to show you how we can implement the same using MySql database.
