public final function GetChars(
    ordinal : int, 
    dataIndex : long, 
    buffer : char[], 
    bufferIndex : int, 
    length : int
) : long

Parameters

  • ordinal
    Type: System.Int32
    The zero-based ordinal position of the column to be retrieved.
  • dataIndex
    Type: System.Int64
    The zero-based index within the column from which to begin reading data.
  • buffer
    Type: array<System.Char[]
    The buffer into which to read the stream of characters.
  • bufferIndex
    Type: System.Int32
    The zero-based index within the buffer from which to begin writing data.
  • length
    Type: System.Int32
    The number of characters to read from the column.

Return Value

Type: System.Int64
A Long that contains the number of characters actually read from the column.

Implements

IDataRecord.GetChars(Int32, Int64, array<Char[], Int32, Int32)

Exceptions

Exception Condition
System.IndexOutOfRangeException

The value ofdataIndex is greater than Int32.MaxValue.

The value of bufferIndex is less than 0 or greater than the total of length and the length of buffer.

Remarks

The GetChars method returns the number of available characters in the field. In most cases this is the exact length of the field. However, the number returned may be less than the true length of the field if GetChars has already been used to obtain characters from the field.

If you pass a nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) in the buffer parameter, GetBytes returns the length of the column in characters.

No conversions are performed; therefore the data retrieved must already be a character array.
