The following example shows the creation of several SqlMetaData objects, which describe the column metadata of a record, and the creation of a SqlDataRecord. The column values of the SqlDataRecord are set and the SqlDataRecord is sent to the calling program using the SqlContext class.
<Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure()> _ Public Shared Sub CreateNewRecord() ' Variables. Dim column1Info As SqlMetaData Dim column2Info As SqlMetaData Dim column3Info As SqlMetaData Dim record As SqlDataRecord ' Create the column metadata. column1Info = new SqlMetaData("Column1", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 12) column2Info = new SqlMetaData("Column2", SqlDbType.Int) column3Info = new SqlMetaData("Column3", SqlDbType.DateTime) ' Create a new record with the column metadata. record = new SqlDataRecord(new SqlMetaData() { column1Info, _ column2Info, _ column3Info }) ' Set the record fields. record.SetString(0, "Hello World!") record.SetInt32(1, 42) record.SetDateTime(2, DateTime.Now) ' Send the record to the calling program. SqlContext.Pipe.Send(record) End Sub
