Retrieve data from a FILESTREAM column using ISequentialStream (OLE DB)

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW)

Download OLE DB driver

This sample shows uses an ISequentialStream interface in an ICommandText interface to retrieve a single record from a FILESTREAM column.

For more information on the FILESTREAM feature, see FILESTREAM support in OLE DB Driver for SQL Server.

Examples

Make sure your INCLUDE environment variable includes the directory that contains msoledbsql.h.

Use one of the following samples to create the table that this sample reads from:

• Send Data to FILESTREAM - ISequentialStream Bound to ICommandText

• Send Data to a FILESTREAM Column Using IRowsetFastUpload (OLE DB)

Copy the first code listing and paste it into a file called ISSHelper.h.

Copy the second code listing and paste it into a file called ISSHelper.cpp.

Copy the third code listing and paste it into a file called ICommandDownload.cpp.

Compile ICommandDownload.cpp, ISSHelper.cpp, ole32.lib, and oleaut32.lib.

When this sample is run, you must pass a server name (or server\instance_name).
