Hi - is it the case that OracleConnectio n does not call close when the
connection is disposed?
For example, I use this sort of construct:
using (OracleConnecti on conn = GetConnection() )
{
using (OracleTransact ion tx = conn.BeginTrans action())
{
using (OracleCommand command = conn.CreateComm and())
etc.
But now a colleague tells me that the connection is not closed when the
using clause ends. Can this be true? Is that not a serious bug in
OracleConnectio n?
Or could it be affected by the "GetConnect ion" method which is a call to a
third-party class which actually gives us a connection - I mean, could
GetConnection somehow affect the subsequent "dispose" behaviour of the
connection?
Thanks,
Peter 6 4517
Peter,
What makes you think that it is not being closed? If you are using
connection pooling, then you might see the connection open still (not to
your code through the OracleConnectio n class, but through a performance
counter, for example). Other than that, the code you wrote will call the
Dispose method on the connection, which will close the connection.

Hi thanks, these were also my thoughts. I have no evidence that
OracleConnectio n does not behave as expected - a colleague has just told me
I need to explictly close my connections because OracleConnectio n does not
function correctly on a dispose (ie at the end of a using clause).
I have not yet heard back from him about how he has ascertained this.

ODP.NET or MS Oracle client?
ODP.NET has a lot of tiny little quircks, like calling Dispose on
every element or else you'll have memory leaks etc. Though I don't
think any ADO.NET provider leaves a connection open when dispose is
called, simply because the connection has to be cleaned up to make
dispose do its job :)
Closing a connection will make it go to the pool, which means the
connection physically stays open for some time. Perhaps your collegue
meant that, although with close you can't change that behavior. (nor
should you want to)

Hi there
We are using Oracle.DataAcce ss.Client.Oracl eConnection.
I wasn't really aware of the different connection objects one could use. Do
you have references to the different types?
Thanks,
Peter

You're using ODP.NET, which is preferable over Microsoft's own Oracle
ADO.NET client in .NET. ODP.NET is released by Oracle, and has more
features. The only downside is that it's still a wrapper around its own
Java based CLI, so you do have to call Dispose() on OracleParameter
objects for example otherwise you'll get memory leaks

Do you mean native OCI ?

I have tried to create a Windows Application with an Oracle Connection to a

The fact is when I do exactly the same in an asp.net webform, it works and
