Parameters

• command
  Type: System.String

  Data source–specific command for which to derive the schema.

• commandType
  Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.SupportEntities.DataCommandType

  Type of the indicated command, specifying how to interpret the contents of the command parameter.

• parameters
  Type: array<Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.SupportEntities.IVsDataParameter[]

  Array of AdoDotNetParameter objects for the specified command type.

• commandTimeout
  Type: System.Int32

  Length of time, in seconds, to block the client before canceling the schema derivation and returning to the caller. A value of zero indicates infinite time-out; value of -1 indicates a provider default.

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.SupportEntities.IVsDataReader
An IVsDataReader object instance representing the command schema.

Remarks

The schema of the data reader returned by this method must follow a specific format. For each result that would be returned when executing the command, there should be a result in the data reader. Each of these results should contain blocks that describe the items that would be returned when executing the command. The description should contain the following items:

• Name (String): the name of the item.

• Ordinal (Int32): the position of the item.

• UserDataType (String): the user data type of the item (for example, "myType").

• NativeDataType (String): the native data type of the item (for example, "nvarchar").

• ProviderDataType (Int32): the provider data type of the item (for example, System.Data.DbType.StringFixedLength).

• FrameworkDataType (Type): the framework data type of the item (for example, System.Int32).

• Length (Int32): the maximum length of the item, if applicable.

• Precision (Int32): the precision of the item, if applicable.

• Scale (Int32): the scale of the item, if applicable.

• Nullable (Boolean): the nullability of the item.

Those items that a provider does not support (for example, some forms of the data type) should be present but set to nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

.NET Framework Security

• Full trust for the immediate caller. This member cannot be used by partially trusted code. For more information, see Using Libraries from Partially Trusted Code.
