Parameters
index
Type: System.Int32Index in the current block of data for the item to retrieve.
buffer
Type: array<System.Byte[]An array into which specified data, as a 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.Int32The index of the starting point in the byte array specified in the buffer parameter.
length
Type: System.Int32The number of bytes to be read into the byte array specified in the buffer parameter.
Return Value
Type: System.Int32
An integer value indicating the number of bytes read into the buffer.

Exceptions
Exception | Condition |
---|---|
ArgumentOutOfRangeException | The index, bufferIndex, and/or length parameters are invalid. |
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 provides better performance than simply retrieving the whole value, which causes all the data to be read and allocated in memory.
Notes to Inheritors
The derived class must override this method.
