Gets the value for the column specified by the ordinal as an array of Byte objects.

- Int32
The zero-based ordinal of the column.
- fieldOffset
- Int64
The offset into the field value to start retrieving bytes.
- buffer
- Byte[]
The target buffer to which to copy bytes.
- bufferOffset
- Int32
The offset into the buffer to which to start copying bytes.
- length
- Int32
The number of bytes to copy to the buffer.
The number of bytes copied.
The ordinal is less than 0 or greater than the number of columns (that is, FieldCount).
The column specified by ordinal is null.
There is a type mismatch.
This method enables you to obtain a binary value either in a single call or in chunks. Getting the value in chunks is useful for large values or values of unknown size.
To obtain the value in several chunks, allocate a byte array of the chunk-size and call GetBytes repeatedly, adjusting the fieldOffset parameter accordingly in each call.
