An OracleBulkCopy
object efficiently bulk loads or copies data into an Oracle table from another data source.
System.Object
System.OracleBulkCopy
// C# public sealed class OracleBulkCopy : IDisposable
All public static methods are thread-safe, although instance methods do not guarantee thread safety.
The OracleBulkCopy
class can be used to write data to Oracle database tables only. However, the data source is not limited to Oracle databases; any data source can be used, as long as the data can be loaded to a DataTable
instance or read with an IDataReader
instance.
Namespace: Oracle.DataAccess.Client
Assembly: Oracle.DataAccess.dll
ODP.NET Version: ODP.NET for .NET Framework 2.0 or ODP.NET for .NET Framework 4

OracleBulkCopy
properties are listed in Table 17-5.
Table 17-5 OracleBulkCopy Properties
Property | Description |
---|---|
Specifies the number of rows to be sent as a batch to the database |
|
Specifies the |
|
Specifies the number of seconds allowed for the bulk copy operation to complete before it is aborted |
|
Specifies the column mappings between the data source and destination table |
|
Specifies the |
|
Specifies the database table that the data is loaded in |
|
Defines the number of rows to be processed before a notification event is generated |
This property specifies the number of rows to be sent as a batch to the database.
// C# public int BatchSize {get; set;}
An integer value for the number of rows to be sent to the database as a batch.
ArgumentOutOfRangeException
- The batch size is less than zero.
The default value is zero, indicating that the rows are not sent to the database in batches. The entire set of rows are sent in one single batch.
A batch is complete when BatchSize
number of rows have been processed or there are no more rows to send to the database.
If BatchSize
>
0
and the UseInternalTransaction
bulk copy option is specified, each batch of the bulk copy operation occurs within a transaction. If the connection used to perform the bulk copy operation is already part of a transaction, an InvalidOperationException
exception is raised.
If BatchSize
>
0
and the UseInternalTransaction
option is not specified, rows are sent to the database in batches of size BatchSize
, but no transaction-related action is taken.
The BatchSize
property can be set at any time. If a bulk copy is already in progress, the current batch size is determined by the previous batch size. Subsequent batches use the new batch size.
If the BatchSize
property is initially zero and changes while a WriteToServer
operation is in progress, that operation loads the data as a single batch. Any subsequent WriteToServer
operations on the same OracleBulkCopy
instance use the new BatchSize
.
See Also:
This property specifies the OracleBulkCopyOptions
enumeration value that determines the behavior of the bulk copy option.
// C# public OracleBulkCopyOptions BulkCopyOptions {get; set;}
The OracleBulkCopyOptions
enumeration object that defines the behavior of the bulk copy operation.
ArgumentNullException
- The bulk copy options set is null.
The default value of this property is OracleBulkCopyOptions.Default
value. This property can be used to change the bulk copy options between the batches of a bulk copy operation.
See Also:
This property specifies the number of seconds allowed for the bulk copy operation to complete before it is aborted.
// C# public int BulkCopyTimeout {get; set;}
An integer value for the number of seconds after which the bulk copy operation times out.
ArgumentOutOfRangeException
- The timeout value is set to less than zero.
The default value is 30 seconds.
If BatchSize
>0
, rows that were sent to the database in the previous batches remain committed. The rows that are processed in the current batch are not sent to the database. If BatchSize=0
, no rows are sent to the database.
This property specifies the column mappings between the data source and destination table.
// C# public OracleBulkCopyColumnMappingCollection ColumnMappings {get;}
The OracleBulkCopyColumnMappingCollection
object that defines the column mapping between the source and destination table.
The ColumnMappings
collection is unnecessary if the data source and the destination table have the same number of columns, and the ordinal position of each source column matches the ordinal position of the corresponding destination column. However, if the column counts differ, or the ordinal positions are not consistent, the ColumnMappings
collection must be used to ensure that data is copied into the correct columns.
During the execution of a bulk copy operation, this collection can be accessed, but it cannot be changed.
By default, this property specifies an empty collection of column mappings.
This property specifies the OracleConnection
object that the Oracle database uses to perform the bulk copy operation.
// C# public OracleConnection Connection {get; }
The OracleConnection
object used for the bulk copy operations.
This property gets the connection constructed by the OracleBulkCopy
, if the OracleBulkCopy
object is initialized using a connection string.
This property specifies the database table that the data is loaded into.
// C# public string DestinationTableName {get; set;}
A string value that identifies the destination table name.
ArgumentNullException
- The destination table name set is null.
ArgumentException
- The destination table name is empty.
If DestinationTableName
is modified while a WriteToServer
operation is running, the change does not affect the current operation. The new DestinationTableName
value is used the next time a WriteToServer
method is called.
This property defines the number of rows to be processed before a notification event is generated.
// C# public int NotifyAfter {get; set;}
An integer value that specifies the number of rows to be processed before the notification event is raised.
ArgumentOutOfRangeException
- The property value is set to a number less than zero.
The default value for this property is zero, to specify that no notifications events are to be generated.
This property can be retrieved in user interface components to display the progress of a bulk copy operation. The NotifyAfter
property can be set at anytime, even during a bulk copy operation. The changes take effect for the next notification and any subsequent operations on the same instance.
OracleBulkCopy
methods are listed in Table 17-6.
Table 17-6 OracleBulkCopy Public Methods
Method | Description |
---|---|
Closes the |
|
Releases any resources or memory allocated by the object |
|
Copies rows to a destination table |
This method closes the OracleBulkCopy
instance.
// C# public void Close();
InvalidOperationException
- The Close
method was called from a OracleRowsCopied
event.
After the Close
method is called on a OracleBulkCopy
object, no other operation can succeed. Calls to the WriteToServer
method throw an InvalidOperationException
. The Close
method closes the connection if the connection was opened by the OracleBulkCopy
object, that is, if the OracleBulkCopy
object was created by a constructor that takes a connection string.
This method releases any resources or memory allocated by the object.
// C# public void Dispose();
IDisposable
After the Dispose
method is called on the OracleBulkCopy
object, no other operation can succeed. The connection is closed if the connection was opened by the OracleBulkCopy
object, that is, if a constructor that takes a connection string created the OracleBulkCopy
object.
WriteToServer
copies rows to a destination table.
This method copies all rows from the supplied DataRow
array to a destination table specified by the DestinationTableName
property of the OracleBulkCopy
object.
This method copies all rows in the supplied DataTable
to a destination table specified by the DestinationTableName
property of the OracleBulkCopy
object.
This method copies all rows in the supplied IDataReader
to a destination table specified by the DestinationTableName
property of the OracleBulkCopy
object.
WriteToServer(DataTable, DataRowState)
This method copies rows that match the supplied row state in the supplied DataTable
to a destination table specified by the DestinationTableName
property of the OracleBulkCopy
object.
WriteToServer(OracleRefCursor)
This method copies all rows from the specified OracleRefCursor
to a destination table specified by the DestinationTableName
property of the OracleBulkCopy
object.
This method copies all rows from the supplied DataRow
array to a destination table specified by the DestinationTableName
property of the OracleBulkCopy
object.
// C#
public void WriteToServer(DataRow[] rows);
rows
An array of DataRow
objects to be copied to the destination table.
ArgumentNullException
- The rows
parameter is null.
InvalidOperationException
- The connection is not in an open state.
The ColumnMappings
collection maps from the DataRow
columns to the destination database table.
This method copies all rows in the supplied DataTable
to a destination table specified by the DestinationTableName
property of the OracleBulkCopy
object.
// C#
public void WriteToServer(DataTable table);
table
The source DataTable
containing rows to be copied to the destination table.
ArgumentNullException
- The table
parameter is null.
InvalidOperationException
- The connection is not in an open state.
All rows in the DataTable
are copied to the destination table except those that have been deleted.
The ColumnMappings
collection maps from the DataTable
columns to the destination database table.
This method copies all rows in the supplied IDataReader
to a destination table specified by the DestinationTableName
property of the OracleBulkCopy
object.
// C#
public void WriteToServer(IDataReader reader);
reader
A IDataReader
instance containing rows to be copied to the destination table.
ArgumentNullException
- The reader
parameter is null.
InvalidOperationException
- The connection is not in an open state.
The bulk copy operation starts with the next available row of the data reader. Typically, the reader
returned by a call to the ExecuteReader
method is passed to the WriteToServer
method so that the next row becomes the first row. To copy multiple result sets, the application must call NextResult
on the reader
and then call the WriteToServer
method again.
This WriteToServer
method changes the state of the reader as it calls reader.Read
internally to get the source rows. Thus, at the end of the WriteToServer
operation, the reader
is at the end of the result set.
The ColumnMappings
collection maps from the data reader columns to the destination database table.
This method copies rows that match the supplied row state in the supplied DataTable
to a destination table specified by the DestinationTableName
property of the OracleBulkCopy
object.
// C# public void WriteToServer(DataTable table, DataRowState rowState);
table
A DataTable
containing rows to be copied to the destination table.
rowState
The DataRowState
enumeration value. Only rows matching the row state are copied to the destination.
ArgumentNullException
- The table
or rowState
parameter is null.
InvalidOperationException
- The connection is not in an open state.
Only rows in the DataTable
that are in the state indicated in the rowState
argument and have not been deleted are copied to the destination table.
The ColumnMappings
collection maps from the DataTable
columns to the destination database table.
This method copies all rows from the specified OracleRefCursor
to a destination table specified by the DestinationTableName
property of the OracleBulkCopy
object.
// C#
public void WriteToServer(OracleRefCursor refCursor);
refCursor
An OracleRefCursor
object containing rows to be copied to the destination table.
ArgumentNullException
- The refCursor
parameter is null
InvalidOperationException
- The connection is not in an open state.
The ColumnMappings
collection maps from the OracleRefCursor
columns to the destination database table.

events are listed in Table 17-7.
Table 17-7 OracleBulkCopy Events
Event | Description |
---|---|
Triggered every time the number of rows specified by the |
This event is triggered every time the number of rows specified by the OracleBulkCopy.NotifyAfter
property has been processed.
// C# public event OracleRowsCopiedEventHandler OracleRowsCopied;
InvalidOperationException
- The Close
method is called inside this event.
This event is raised when the number of rows specified by the NotifyAfter
property has been processed. It does not imply that the rows have been sent to the database or committed.
To cancel the operation from this event, use the Abort
property of OracleRowsCopiedEventArgs
class.
