<summary>
The database connection string for Oracle.
</summary>
Private Const String connstring =
The 192.168.1.210 is the IP address of the Oracle database server
1521 is the default port number
SERVICE_NAME=ORCL means that the Oracle database service is ORCL
The user name password is followed.
To connect to an Oracle database using the System.Data.OracleClient library in. Net
1. Download and install the instant Client
Instant client can be downloaded to the Oracle website at
There are three versions of the Windows,instant client:
1) Instant Client for Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
2) Instant Client for Microsoft Windows (64-bit) Itanium
3) Instant Client for Microsoft Windows (x64)
You can see your computer's processor information by clicking Properties in the right-click menu on My Computer
Since my computer is a Win7 64-bit system, I downloaded a third package
Once the download is complete, unzip and add the address of the bin directory inside to the environment variable path.
Then add the following attribute to the environment variable:
(I put the extracted path to the D drive, the extracted folder is named Instantclient_12_1)
Nls_lang=simplified Chinese_china. Zhs16gbk
Tns_admin=d:\instantclient_12_1
Ld_library_path=d:\instantclient_12_1
2. Redhat system with Oracle installed with XSHELL4 remote connection
You need to enter the following:
1) Name: Make a name for yourself
2) Protocol: Select SSH
3) Host: Destination Host IP
4) port number: port (22)
5) login username/password
Attached: the command to log in to the database in Linux is
Sqlplus User name/password @ database name
3. Get the connection string
Find an Oracle installation address
Linux command: Echo $ORACLE _home
Tnsnames.ora in the Directory
$ORACLE _home\network\admin\
After you open Tnsnames.ora with Vim, you see that the Oracle database is configured as follows:
XTCSJK = (DESCRIPTION = ( ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST = 171.0.0.132) (PORT = 1521)) (Connect_data = (SE RVer = dedicated) (service_name = TestDB)))
Based on this file, you can write the connection string that connects to the Oracle database.
Data source= (description= (address_list= (address= (protocol=tcp) ( host=171.0.0.132) (port=1521) ) ) (Connect_data= (SERVICE_NAME=TESTDB) ) ); Persist Security info=true; User id= username; password= Password
4. Program code
Note: Running the following code requires
1) Manually add a reference to the library System.Data.OracleClient
2) in the assembly → right-click → properties → build, change the target platform from AnyCPU to x64
Otherwise, the exception will be reported badimageformatexception (compatibility issue)
3) If you do not complete the installation of the instant client or the configuration of the environment variable, the runtime will report the exception information:
System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or later
Using system;using system.collections.generic;using system.linq;using system.text;using System.Threading.Tasks; Method1 function call Library, need to manually add reference using System.Data.OracleClient; Namespace Oracletest{class Program {//Read time information from the Oracle database static void Readfromoracletest () { String conn = string.

Close (); }} static void Main (string[] args) {readfromoracletest (); Console.ReadLine (); } }}
5. Running the sample
