Parameters
- name
Type: System.String
The name of the item for which to retrieve raw binary data.
- buffer
Type: array<System.Byte[]
An array into which specified data, as byte array, should be placed. If nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), this method returns the size required of the array in order to fit all of the specified data.
- bufferIndex
Type: System.Int32
Index of the starting point in the byte array specified with the buffer parameter.
- length
Type: System.Int32
The number of bytes to be read into the byte array specified with the buffer parameter.
Return Value
Type: System.Int32
An integer value indicating the number of bytes read into the buffer.
Remarks
When data is presented by the DDEX provider in the form of raw bytes, call this method to read only a specified number of bytes into an existing client-side buffer. This performs better than simply retrieving the whole value, which causes all the data to be read and allocated in memory.
