In this article I will show you practical example of WCF service for inserting data into database using ASP.NET.
For inserting data into database by using WCF service in asp.net, we have to do the following steps:
After that new project is created CustomerService project
Then you will get 3 files
// using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Runtime.Serialization; using System.ServiceModel; using System.ServiceModel.Web; using System.Text; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Runtime.Serialization; using System.ServiceModel; [ServiceContract] public interface IService { [OperationContract] List<CustomerDetails> GetCustomerDetails(string CutomerName); [OperationContract] string InsertCustomerDetails(CustomerDetails customerInfo); } [DataContract] public class CustomerDetails { string CutomerName = string.Empty; string firstname = string.Empty; string lastname = string.Empty; string address = string.Empty; [DataMember] public string CutomerName { get { return CutomerName; } set { CutomerName = value; } } [DataMember] public string FirstName { get { return firstname; } set { firstname = value; } } [DataMember] public string LastName { get { return lastname; } set { lastname = value; } } [DataMember] public string Address { get { return address; } set { address = value; } } }
And write the following code in Service.cs file:
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Runtime.Serialization; using System.ServiceModel; using System.ServiceModel.Web; using System.Text; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Configuration; using System.Data; using System.Data.SqlClient; public class Service : IService { SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=Sujeet;Initial Catalog=Register;User ID=sa;Password=123"); public List<CustomerDetails> GetCustomerDetails(string CutomerName) { List<CustomerDetails> CustomerDetails = new List<CustomerDetails>(); { con.Open(); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("select * from CustomerInfo where CutomerName Like '%'+@Name+'%'", con); cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Name", CutomerName); SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd); DataTable dt = new DataTable(); da.Fill(dt); if (dt.Rows.Count > 0) { for (int i = 0; i < dt.Rows.Count; i++) { CustomerDetails customerInfo = new CustomerDetails(); customerInfo.CutomerName = dt.Rows[i]["CutomerName"].ToString(); customerInfo.FirstName = dt.Rows[i]["FirstName"].ToString(); customerInfo.LastName = dt.Rows[i]["LastName"].ToString(); customerInfo.Address = dt.Rows[i]["Address"].ToString(); CustomerDetails.Add(customerInfo); } } con.Close(); } return CustomerDetails; } public string InsertCustomerDetails(CustomerDetails customerInfo) { string strMessage = string.Empty; con.Open(); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("insert into CustomerInfo(CutomerName,FirstName,LastName,Address) values(@Name,@FName,@LName,@Address)", con); cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Name", customerInfo.CutomerName); cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@FName", customerInfo.FirstName); cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@LName", customerInfo.LastName); cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Address", customerInfo.Address); int result = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); if (result == 1) { strMessage = customerInfo.CutomerName + " inserted successfully"; } else { strMessage = customerInfo.CutomerName + " not inserted successfully"; } con.Close(); return strMessage; } }
Build your service successful first then Run your service in your browser then you will get one URL link like below copy that URL:
In this way your WCF service builds successfully.
Now create your Client Application in your system:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head runat="server"> <title></title> </head> <body> <form id="form1" runat="server"> <div> <h2 > <strong>Cutomer Form</strong></h2> </div> <table align="center" class="style1"> <tr> <td> CutomerName</td> <td> <asp:TextBox ID="txtCutomerName" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtCutomerName" ToolTip="CutomerName Required"><imgsrc="delete.png" /></asp:RequiredFieldValidator> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> First Name</td> <td> <asp:TextBox ID="txtfname" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator2" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtfname" ToolTip="Firstname Required"><imgsrc="delete.png" /></asp:RequiredFieldValidator> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Last Name</td> <td> <asp:TextBox ID="txtlname" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator3" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtlname" ToolTip="Lastname Required"><imgsrc="delete.png" /></asp:RequiredFieldValidator> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Address</td> <td> <asp:TextBox ID="txtAddress" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator4" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtAddress" ToolTip="Address Required"><imgsrc="delete.png" /></asp:RequiredFieldValidator> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td> <asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" runat="server" Text="Submit" onclick="btnSubmit_Click" /> </td> </tr> </table> <table align="center" class="style3"> <tr> <td> <asp:Label ID="lblResult" runat="server"/> <br /> <br /> <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server"BackColor="LightGoldenrodYellow" BorderColor="Tan" BorderWidth="1px" CellPadding="2"ForeColor="Black" GridLines="None" style="text-align: left" Width="304px"> <AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="PaleGoldenrod" /> <FooterStyle BackColor="Tan" /> <HeaderStyle BackColor="Tan" Font-Bold="True" /> <PagerStyle BackColor="PaleGoldenrod" ForeColor="DarkSlateBlue" HorizontalAlign="Center" /> <SelectedRowStyle BackColor="DarkSlateBlue" ForeColor="GhostWhite"/> <SortedAscendingCellStyle BackColor="#FAFAE7" /> <SortedAscendingHeaderStyle BackColor="#DAC09E" /> <SortedDescendingCellStyle BackColor="#E1DB9C" /> <SortedDescendingHeaderStyle BackColor="#C2A47B" /> </asp:GridView> </td> </tr> </table> </form> </body> </html>
using ServiceReference1;
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Web; using System.Web.UI; using System.Web.UI.WebControls; using System.Collections.Generic; using ServiceReference1; public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page { ServiceReference1.ServiceClient objService = new ServiceReference1.ServiceClient(); protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (!IsPostBack) { BindUserDetails(); } } protected void BindUserDetails() { IList<CustomerDetails> objUserDetails = new List<CustomerDetails>(); objUserDetails = objService.GetCustomerDetails(""); GridView1.DataSource = objUserDetails; GridView1.DataBind(); } protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { CustomerDetails customerInfo = new CustomerDetails(); customerInfo.CutomerName = txtCutomerName.Text; customerInfo.FirstName = txtfname.Text; customerInfo.LastName = txtlname.Text; customerInfo.Address = txtlocation.Text; string result = objService.InsertCustomerDetails(customerInfo); lblResult.Text = result; BindUserDetails(); txtCutomerName.Text = string.Empty; txtfname.Text = string.Empty; txtlname.Text = string.Empty; txtAddress.Text = string.Empty; } }
By using this you have successfully inserted data in database and you also shown this in grid view.
Happy Programming!
