Entity Framework Extensions UseLogDump

Description

When the UseLogDump property is true, the LogDump property stores all messages of type "Information".

/// <summary>Gets or sets the `UseLogDump` property. When the `UseLogDump` property is `true`, the [LogDump](log-dump) property stores all messages of type "Information".</summary>
public bool UseLogDump { get; set; }

Example

We will demonstrate how to use the UseLogDump and LogDump properties to log all messages.

Execute

We will execute a BulkMerge on a list that contains 1 new customer, and 2 existing customers.

We will use the following BulkOptions:

• UseLogDump: To enable the LogDump.
• LogDump: To specify the StringBuilder to use to dump all messages.

Code

// Execute
var sb = new StringBuilder();
context.BulkMerge(list, options =>
{
    options.UseLogDump = true;
    options.LogDump = sb;
    
});

// Result
Console.WriteLine(sb.ToString());

Try it: .NET Core | .NET Framework

Result

We outputted the StringBuilder text which contains all SQL statements executed in the database.
