IDataRecord.GetValues(Object[]) Method

Definition

Populates an array of objects with the column values of the current record.

public:
 int GetValues(cli::array <System::Object ^> ^ values);
public int GetValues (object[] values);
abstract member GetValues : obj[] -> int
Public Function GetValues (values As Object()) As Integer

Parameters

values
Object[]

An array of Object to copy the attribute fields into.

Returns

The number of instances of Object in the array.

Remarks

For most applications, the GetValues method provides an efficient means for retrieving all columns, instead of retrieving each column individually.

You can pass an Object array that contains fewer than the number of columns that are contained in the resulting row. Only the amount of data the Object array holds is copied to the array. You can also pass an Object array whose length is more than the number of columns that are contained in the resulting row.
