IVsDataCommand.DeriveSchema Method (String, DataCommandType, array<IVsDataParameter )
When implemented by a class, derives the schema returned from a specified command. The schema indicates the layout of items and blocks in a data reader.

Parameters
- command
Type: System.String
A command for which to derive the schema specific that is to a data source.
- commandType
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.SupportEntities.DataCommandType
A value from the DataCommandType enumeration representing the command type for the indicated command, specifying how to interpret the contents of the command parameter.
- parameters
Type: array<Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.SupportEntities.IVsDataParameter[]
An array of DataParameter objects for the specified command type. While this is an input parameter, the DDEX provider is still able to set properties on individual out and return value parameters. However, these will not be populated when deriving schemas.
Return Value
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.SupportEntities.IVsDataReader
An IVsDataReader object. This object provides a forward-only, read-only data stream that describes the layout of items and blocks, that is, the schema, for the reader object returned upon executing the specified command.
Remarks
The schema of the data reader returned by this method must follow a specific format. For each result that will be returned when you execute the command, there should be a result in the data reader. Each of these results should contain blocks that describe the items that will be returned when you execute 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).
Notes
Other exceptions that occur indicate that the parameter derivation failed for a provider-specified reason.
