SQL-DMO and C#: retrieve the list of User-Defined Functions

[serge]

http://www.csharphelp.com/archives2/archive342.html

I am using the sample code from this link but I am
unable to figure out how to retrieve the list of
the User-Defined Functions. I am able to get the
count of the user defined functions correctly using:

db.ListObjects(SQLDMO.SQLDMO_OBJECT_TYPE.SQLDMOObj _UserDefinedFunction,
SQLDMO.SQLDMO_OBJSORT_TYPE.SQLDMOObjSort_Name).Cou nt

but I am unable to get to enumerate the function names.

Then I tried to see if I can achieve what I want using
SQLObjectList but I was unsuccessful.

Does someone know how I can do this using C#?

Thank you

This is the full code I have:

private void linkLabel5_LinkClicked(object sender,
LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs e)
{
this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
SQLDMO.SQLServer srv = new SQLDMO.SQLServerClass();
srv.Connect(this.cboServers.SelectedItem.ToString( ), this.txtUser.Text,
this.txtPassword.Text);
for (int i = 0; i < srv.Databases.Count; i++)
{
if (srv.Databases.Item(i + 1, "dbo").Name ==
this.cboDatabase.SelectedItem.ToString())
{
SQLDMO._Database db = srv.Databases.Item(i + 1, "dbo");
this.lstObjects.Items.Clear();
SQLDMO.SQLObjectList sqludf;
sqludf =
db.ListObjects(SQLDMO.SQLDMO_OBJECT_TYPE.SQLDMOObj _UserDefinedFunction,
SQLDMO.SQLDMO_OBJSORT_TYPE.SQLDMOObjSort_Name);
for (int j = 0; j < sqludf.Count; j++)
{
//this.lstObjects.Items.Add(db.ListObjects(SQLDMO.SQ LDMO_OBJECT_TYPE.SQLDMOObj_UserDefinedFunction,
SQLDMO.SQLDMO_OBJSORT_TYPE.SQLDMOObjSort_Name).Ite m(j + 1, "dbo").Name);
}
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
return;
}
}
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
}

try using the SQLDMO.Database2 interface, as the original one does not
provide functionnalities to access SQL Server 2000 new features..

Hi Serge,

As well as using SQLDMO, you could also query the built-in sysobjects
table to get the names of your UDFs, e.g.

SELECT [name] AS [UDF Name]
FROM sysobjects
WHERE xtype = 'FN' or xtype = 'IF'
ORDER BY [name]

FN = Scalar function
IF = In-lined table-function

HTH,

Chris

Thank you Chris.

I would still hope someone knows how to achieve this using SQL-DMO.
Obviously using SQL-DMO I am able to get the count of the user-defined
functions so I am hoping someone who knows C# and/or SQL-DMO would
be able to tell me what I need to write to make this code show me the
function name or the SQL object name using SQLObjects..

Thank you Andrea, I will look at the SQLDMO.Database2 interface.

P.S.
I am not sure why my I didn't get your post downloaded to my news
reader. I read your email through Google.
