Deployment Tools Foundation
AsQueryable Method (db)
Deployment Tools Foundation Namespaces ► Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.Linq ► Queryable ► AsQueryable(Database)
Converts any Database instance into a queryable database.
Declaration Syntax
Parameters
- db (Database)
Return Value
Queryable database instance that operates on the same
MSI handle.
Remarks
This extension method is meant for convenient on-the-fly conversion.
If the existing database instance already happens to be a QDatabase,
then it is returned unchanged. Otherwise since the new database
carries the same MSI handle, only one of the instances needs to be
closed, not both.
