Syntax

'Declaration
Public Structure BLOB

public struct BLOB

public value class BLOB

[<Sealed>]
type BLOB =  struct end

JScript supports the use of structures, but not the declaration of new ones.

The BLOB type exposes the following members.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals	Indicates whether this instance and a specified object are equal. (Inherited from ValueType.)
	GetHashCode	Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from ValueType.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns the fully qualified type name of this instance. (Inherited from ValueType.)

Fields

	Name	Description
	cbSize	Size of the block of data pointed to by pBlobData, in bytes.
	pBlobData	Pointer to a block of data.

Remarks

The structure name BLOB comes from the acronym BLOB, which stands for Binary Large Object.

This structure does not describe the nature of the data pointed to by pBlobData.

Note

Windows Sockets defines a similar BLOB structure in Wtypes.h. Using both header files in the same source code file creates redefinition compile-time errors.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
