Question

I am using Oracle.ManagedDataAccess Nuget Package Version 12.1.022 in my C# (.NET 4.0) project. The package automatically creates entries in the app.config file. How can I r

Answer 1

You can make a separate class file returning the connectionstring like this -

public class OracleDbConnection
{
 public static OracleConnection GetConnection()
 {
  const string connectionString = "Data Source=(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=127.0.0.1)(PORT=1521)) (CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=PROD))); User Id=userId;Password=password;";
  var connection=new OracleConnection(connectionString);
  return connection;
 }
}

Then you can call it like this where you need to access oracle db-

var oracleConnection = OracleDbConnection.GetConnection();
oracleConnection.Open();
