Nøglen til SMO-scripting er Scripter
klasse. Alle andre værktøjer (såsom SSMS) bruger denne klasse til at generere scripts til oprettelse af objekter. Der er et eksempel på brug på MSDN
:
{
//Connect to the local, default instance of SQL Server.
Server srv = new Server();
//Reference the AdventureWorks2008R2 database.
Database db = srv.Databases["AdventureWorks2008R2"];
//Define a Scripter object and set the required scripting options.
Scripter scrp = new Scripter(srv);
scrp.Options.ScriptDrops = false;
scrp.Options.WithDependencies = true;
//Iterate through the tables in database and script each one. Display the script.
//Note that the StringCollection type needs the System.Collections.Specialized namespace to be included.
Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc.Urn[] smoObjects = new Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc.Urn[1] ;
foreach (Table tb in db.Tables) {
smoObjects[0] = tb.Urn;
if (tb.IsSystemObject == false) {
System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection sc;
sc = scrp.Script(smoObjects);
foreach ( string st in sc) {
Console.WriteLine(st);
}
}
}
}
