Requirements

Provider	ODP.NET, Unmanaged Driver	ODP.NET, Managed Driver	ODP.NET Core

Thread Safety

All public static methods are thread-safe, although instance methods do not guarantee thread safety.

Remarks

OracleXmlSaveProperties can be accessed and modified using the XmlSaveProperties property of the OracleCommand class. Each OracleCommand object has its own instance of the OracleXmlSaveProperties class in the XmlSaveProperties property.

Use the default constructor to get a new instance of OracleXmlSaveProperties. Use the OracleXmlSaveProperties.Clone() method to get a copy of an OracleXmlSaveProperties instance.

Example

This sample demonstrates how to do inserts, updates, and deletes to a relational table or view using an XML document.

   -- to unlock the account first. Unlock a locked users account:
   
   ALTER USER hr ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
